Overall Good Program to Have in Your Photography Workflow

We use it for some very important elements in our digital workflow. Sorting images by story line from multiple cameras, selecting images for an online gallery, even using it to rename the images.

PROS

We use this program primarily for sorting and renaming huge quantities of files from multiple cameras. We shoot upwards of 100 weddings a year and this program is a life-saver. We have to take the images from two cameras, sort them so they tell the same story and then rename all the files once they are ordered. This program saves us! Other programs can do this, but the ACDSee platform is the easiest. We also go through and select the images we want to provide in a public online gallery for the Bride and Groom's family and friends. This makes it really easy to go through the images and select the ones we want included. Again, other programs can do this but this has been the easiest we have found.

CONS

For the most part it is easy to use. Learning to navigate yet another panel in another program is frustrating when you haven't learned how the designers think, but for the most part that's not a flaw in design, just operator error.

ACDSee Pro is a Solid Photo Editor

PROS

Extremely user friendly photo editor. Professional looking photos make my social media accounts pop.

CONS

I have found this to be an affordable alternative to more sophisticated photo editors like Adobe Photoshop.

Reasons for switching to ACDSee Pro

Less expensive and easier learning curve.

One of the best Pictures and Video management software

PROS

The easyness to use it and also the great catalogue feature.

CONS

Sometimes do mess with face recognition and maybe it could be useful more features about deiting with other filters.

I think it may be good software but I have not succeeded to use it.

I was unable to activate, and customer service was not very interested in solving the problems.

PROS

I used to have an older version and it works very well. It met its role well, photo management. But the current one I have not been able to activate. The customer support was not able to solve the activation problems on my computer.

CONS

Activation problems. Too restrictive licensing system that prevents use of the software.

Reasons for switching to ACDSee Pro

Better photos management.

ACDSee: Photographer's best friend

PROS

I have been using ACDSee from the times of DOS based version. It has been most go-to tool for viewing, organizing tool for my memories. As I developed passion for photography, it became my best friend. Over years, ACDSee viewer also became editor/enhancer and all-in-one solution for photo editing. I like it simplicity and ease of use. You can edit/enhance your images easily if you are novice computer user. Supports for wide array for file formats including RAW, effortless organizing, one-click editing are plus of ACDSee. This is must have software if you like keeping your memories organized.

CONS

None, its just get better and better. Though pricing could be more affordable.
