"Adobe never miss."
What do you like best about Adobe Lightroom?

This product is amazing for editing photos. Adobe has done a great job in complementing their programs to work in tandem with each other. Lightroom works well while using Photoshop and it shows what you could do when you use Adobe products.

What do you dislike about Adobe Lightroom?

I hate how Adobe refuses it's user to use a specific program. They want you to get all of adobe creative cloud which is great and the best bang for your buck. But for the average person lightroom might be enough.

What problems is Adobe Lightroom solving and how is that benefiting you?

Adobe photoshop is solving a lot of issues when it comes to editing photos. It allows us to create and to tell a story. When they say a picture is worth a thousand words, lightroom is the publisher.

"Make photos beautiful"
What do you like best about Adobe Lightroom?

Lightroom has changed my photos for the better. I am highly impressed with the AI and just how good hitting "auto" does to my photos. Sometimes that is all you need to make your photos do better. With the new smart features released recently where you can remove objects like in photoshop, this software is Amazing. The price for the single app is well worth it for anyone serious about taking great photos to share online.

What do you dislike about Adobe Lightroom?

I can't think of anything I do not like. The software is reliable and does exactly what I ask of it.

What problems is Adobe Lightroom solving and how is that benefiting you?

It turns photos that have poor light, grainy or anything else and turns them into something Amazing. It opens fast and even has a mobile app that helps you edit on the go.

"Effective and great toool for photo editing"
What do you like best about Adobe Lightroom?

The number of options for photo editing in a sense the way we can change the look of a raw image is above everything the color grading is a great tool to use and the possibility of changing the way a processed image look is very useful.

What do you dislike about Adobe Lightroom?

There isn't much to dislike but the image import library is a little complicated a much more friendly way to import and organize the imported images can be made useful to many people.

What problems is Adobe Lightroom solving and how is that benefiting you?

The Li helps in changing the way an image looks something as a human being we cannot control the surrounding and the image may not be the way we expected it to be like the exposure color grading may be off but with Li it can all be solved
