- Reviewed in the United States on February 21, 2022Adobe Premiere and Photoshop are one of the top video and photo editing applications out there. Most people who use it use the Pro versions, which are a subscription-based program through Adobe. I refuse to do subscriptions, so I was happy that they still sell this version. I admit that it is limited when compared to Pro, but for casual or small business use, it's perfect.
I use Premiere to make YouTube videos or videos for volunteer organizations that I work with. For that use, it's perfect. The Pro version allows for more 'tracks', so you can add more audio, video, or overlays in Pro, but again, I don't need as many bells and whistles.
I don't use Photoshop all that much, but when I do want it, I have it. I've used it to adjust some brightness or color in some photos that I have taken, so I'm not using it for graphic design, although I could just as well. For the general or occasional user, this is a great product. Sure, there are other programs out there, even free ones, but the install base on Adobe products is huge, meaning that there are tons of tutorials and user forums where you can get training or assistance if you need it. The programs are also user-friendly enough that most people can get started fairly easily as I did. Overall, great applications.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 26, 2020I have used Photoshop Elements for many years (I call it "Photoshop for Dummies" because it has so many helpful tools (Quick Fix, remove a color cast, spot healing and clone stamp brushes) for the the non-professional). The reason I upgraded is the new (2020 and 2021 versions) Colorize Photo tool. When one uses it, about 40% of the time one gets a result that will "knock your socks off"; about 30% of the time one gets an image that is good and can be "repaired" and about 30% of the time the result is unsatisfactory. I also purchased George Peirson's How To Gurus Photoshop Elements 2021 Tutorial Training. Peirson does a great job explaining how to "repair" a colorized Photo.
- Reviewed in the United States on June 7, 2021Has more features than I will ever be able to use being an amateur videographer. Initially the learning is a challenge, but not that bad. But the nice thing is that Element 2021 has MANY tutorial videos on YouTube. Help yourself out tremendously and watch as many as you can. Once figured out, Photoshop/Premiere Elements 2021 is an excellent package. Oh, it is a one time expense and no monthly fees which in long run is much cheaper than subscription products.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 12, 2021Easy install from disk but it took a long time. Activation failed. After 5 hours and three levels of Adobe support Elements & Premier activated. Support was excellent and continued to work on the problem until resolution. But this should have happened! Therefore Photoshop versions 2021 are not recommended.
The new additional, 612 MB Creative Cloud software was an unwanted surprise. It apparently uses resources in the background. It seems to be required. I may return to my older version.
---------------------------
The next day 2021 products still had problems. So I switch back to my previous version of these Adobe products. But hit errors and had to re-install. After a lot of work, the older products did work. I uninstalled Photoshop Elements 2021 and Premier Elements 2021 but new 612MB Creative Cloud could not be installed by Windows 10. So it back to Adobe Support. In any case I will be returning the 2021 products to seller.
-------------------------
- Reviewed in the United States on January 8, 2025This program was easy to install and is easy to use. I thought about updating my program to PSE 2025 but when I saw that it is a time limited program I decided to keep using my 2021 version until it no longer works on my computer.
- Reviewed in the United States on September 5, 2021I was first instructed in the use of Photoshop 6.0 in 2001, while in a U.S. Navy photography course. Once I got the "layers" concept into my head (by remembering the multi-layered Disney animation techniques in "Snow White" and "Bambi" and the like), I enjoyed using the program.
This newest version, I do not enjoy. I'm nowhere close to relying on it. If not for that previous government training on how to use Photoshop, there are many elements that I wouldn't even know existed. Some things that used to be readily available are buried two and three folders deep in the program. I'm frustrated by everything new about it, from having to adjust the screen size of the image to the irritating window that opens up beneath the image.
I do not envy anyone stepping into Adobe Photoshop Elements for the first time with this software. In fact, I've come to rely on the free, basic, quick and effective, Microsoft Photos app to do most of the quick editing that I need to do.
I really wish that I hadn't wasted my money on this. My advice: look online. Try the Photos app. Experiment. Find free software and see if that does what you need it to do. Because this latest version is unnecessarily complicated and time-consuming.
- Reviewed in the United States on October 10, 2021Adobe Photoshop Elements 2021 adds support for new camera RAW formats like Canon's proprietary CR2 format. It also adds new features for editing your photos from my older version, 2014. I've been using Photoshop Elements since it's introduction in the early 2000s, so, I'm pretty familiar with its user interface and tools. However, this is a powerful editing software and watching some YouTube videos on its use and features would be helpful for the uninitiated. However, for the money, it can't be beat as a photo editing software for the prosumer photography enthusiast.
- Reviewed in the United States on April 17, 2021I have photoshop Cs6 and wanted Photoshop Elements for things like automated red eye removal, adding new backgrounds and many more automated features that take much longer in Cs6. Anyone wanting to organize or fix contrast or color to their photos will like this. It does so many things it's hard to list them all, fortunately, there are many online videos to help learn how to use it.
