Incredible Easy to Use, Impressive Results. The Full Mobile version is a BARGAIN!

Incredible Easy to Use, Impressive Results. The Full Mobile version is a BARGAIN!
update April 2 2014inexplicably, the mobile version that i actually forked out cash for no longer works. It will either crash or ask me to buy it even though I have already bought it.While it worked, it was amazing....now i call it something else!....garbage. I still like the full Windows version but my enthusiasm has greatly diminished. I no longer recommend the mobile versionI have been an avid Photoshop elements user for many years. However I find this software so easy...make that VERY easy to use with stunning results. It is something that will now be a must-have for me simply because of its ease of use.It is not a replacement for Photoshop or similar programs but I conclude it is a must have for me...ditto the full mobile version (see below)It does way too much to mention here, but photo manipulation is made incredibly easy. It has loads of preset adjustments that are easy to try out and select. It also automatically saves your original file just in case.......It can convert fairly ordinary photos into HD wonders, it can also slim down body's,,smooth skin and remove blemishes. Like a lot of photo editing software, it can organize photos (one of the feature I did not use) and do es too much to mention.This software will be ideal for someone who wants to quickly enhance photos but has little experience with editing software. It is easy to install and set-up. It does not use layers, which makes it easy for novices.There is also has a mobile version (at the time of writing was only available for windows 8 tablets) which works well on my Surface Pro tablet. I tried the "free" version and found it too limited to even bother with. However, it offers you the "full" mobile version for $4.99 and it is an absolute BARGAIN!!!!!!!!!In fact, I could live with this in place of the desktop version and if you have a tablet, I strongly recommend you start with the mobile version. It does a lot that the full desktop does at less than 10% of the price!!!!!!!Both of these versions have brought out a very artistic and creative side of me that has impressed a lot of friends, so much that they have sent me photos to see what I can do with them and loved the results.I have added a few photos to the customer images on the product page. It is La Pena de Bernal in Queretaro Mexico (a large rock formation). I added the original photo plus two artistic versions for everyone to see!.In a nutshell, this is super software that I LOVE using, although I actually reviewed it for the vine program, I would have happily splashed out for this and actually did fork out for the full mobile version! Now.....go and get creative!!!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars A GOOD THING
Reviewed in the United States on April 26, 2015
Platform For Display: PC/Mac DiscVerified Purchase
I'm using a MAC Computer running Yosemite 10.10.3 This software is fully compatible.
It gives the user MORE ability to use adjustments for photo editing.
Apple's iPhoto offers some adjustments; but not as much as this program.
This is a great partner with iPhoto.
As a amateur photographer, this software provides enough for my needs. It doesn't do everything,
but most people don't need "professional" features
It's sharpness capabilities are good, as well as contrast and saturation.
a split image of "before and after" are very helpful as well.
I recommend it.

3.0 out of 5 stars and some Church videos for easy video editing
Reviewed in the United States on June 26, 2015
Platform For Display: PC/Mac DiscVerified Purchase
Cyberlink PhotoDirector 5 Ultra ...for MAC is ok. This program is lacking in a lot of effects, edibility, etc. It is meant for basic editing. I have been using Cyberlink's PowerPoint on a PC for years for non-commercial pro-bono projects, and some Church videos for easy video editing. However, for my commercial products I use my MAC Final Cut. On my PC for professional Photos I use Corel Paintshop for speed and good effects in the field, and for studio quality I still use Adobe CS4, Corel Paintshop and or other professional Software. I don't want the Web for it's not always available to me or it is at such a slow speed I'd never get done. I finally decided to move completely over to MAC for my video and photo endeavors. However MAC doesn't seem to have any really good/outstanding photo software since Aperture (which was ok) no longer works and "Photos for OS X" is in its infancy there's only Adobe and again I don't want to depend on the Internet and sometimes for making a profit the less I have to edit the better. I've only had PhotoDirector for a week and been working mainly on videos, so this opinion my not be totally fair. I'll be working on a pro-bono banner design photo project sometime before Aug. So, by then I may have a better understanding of PhotoDirector. I'm still looking for a professional photo software for MAC and I may have to end up with Adobe (don't get me wrong Adobe is a great product) just for my reasons: efficiency, need for internet and cost wise I hesitate to get Adobe at this time.

4.0 out of 5 stars Very happy with PD.

Easy to use, lots of good editing features, I haven't found anything that limits my creativity yet. I am a DSLR beginner though. I handles raw just fine. When trying to correct horizontal rotation I could only find a way to get the position markers to show momentarily. That's the only reason I give it one less star. It may have a way to enable them to stay on, but I have yet to find it.

1.0 out of 5 stars WILL NOT Install, buy another product
Reviewed in the United States on April 7, 2014
Platform For Display: PC/Mac Disc
I am an electrical engineer and have been designing and working with computers and s/w since the 70s, have installed hundreds of programs and dozens on my current computer. I tried three times to install Photodirector 5 Ultra from the enclosed disk and twice using the download and it will not install. Technical support has been non-responsive. There is no direct way to communicate with a person at Cyberlink--you must submit a problem and then go back and look to see if anybody responds to your problem. My guess is that there are so many people who have problems that they want to make it difficult for people to communicate with them and hope we just leave them alone.

UPDATE:
Technical support at Cyberlink did not even read my problem and provided me no help to get the problem resolved. They sent me a generic reply that avoids any responsibility and words that were not even related to my questions. I sent them the Product Key, etc. and they are totally unresponsive. Do yourself a favor, don't waste your money buy another product. I should have purchased Lightroom
