    Pixelmator can do most all the basic functions of Adobe Photoshop but without the price tag or the "cloud" component and leasing fees. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

    For quasi-designers, I would never say I am an expert graphic designer and never execute final files for clients. However, I do last-second image edits for ads, email campaigns and other marketing tactics. All Adobe apps on OS desktop are too convoluted and not intuitive for rookies to intermediate design skilled users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

    Lack of IPTC support for embedded information for the images is a deal-killer for use in a professional photography setting. It's critical to be able to embed information about the image. Also the File Save workflow is frustrating since it drops the Save/Save As feature we've all been used to in favor of Apple's design of save before creating mentality.

    Unfortunately Pixelmator behaves rather clunky in many situations, making it feel hard to control at times. Especially when it comes to functionality like copy&paste of layers or selections, it rarely does the right job on the first try. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

    Overall: Pixelmator Pro has been an excellent investment for my company. We work with outside agencies, so we didn't need the most expensive software for serious design work. We needed an easy to use image editor for quick changes, image cleanup, and simple editing and cropping. Pixelmator Pro gave us that and a lot more for a very low price. Seriously, this software can do 95% of what the highest end image editors can do, and the developers have added new features on a regular basis. If you are coming from another image editor, you'll have to push yourself to learn Pixelmator as the interface is different (but not worse) from other editors I have used. There's a great support community, and I've been able to learn the ropes quickly to turn out professional-looking images in no time.

    Overall: I do almost all my graphics on PIxelmator Pro, thought I do use Canva for quicker cut/paste creations and final rendering. I create book covers and detailed banners/graphics/ promotional materials for both our church and for my business using Pixelmator Pro. There are many features in Pixelmator Pro that I do not yet use. I learned a new one just yesterday as I had need--by finding the answer in a forum and applying that. I still would like to figure out how to do some filters, but I know there are many more features awaiting my learning them in Pixelmator Pro.

    Overall: Once you learn some of its features, you can create just about anything. While I have not edited pictures, the ability to edit and repurpose elements. We were able to recreate a sign with edits from a PNG of the original. It really helps create images for advertising and social media.
