So, if you switched from Lightroom to PhotoLabs, do you regret it, do you miss something from LR or are you happy with your choice? Thanks! PhotoLabs lets you do most of that, that's why I'm contemplating using it instead of Lightroom. Like import all the pictures from a photo session, rate the one that I want to keep, edit them, and then tag them with different colors to export them on different folders. I'am aware there's other Lightroom alternatives but I use a lot of the 'cataloging' features when I editing my pictures. I do all of that on Lightroom, export my pictures and back them up out of my computer, so, to me, Lightroom is an editing software more than a place where I keep all of my pictures. It's mostly pulling down the highlights on overexposed photos, and I like deep shadows and blacks. Those features (and PS) are definitely cool to have, but I don't use them enough to justify the price of the subscription.Ī few words on my workflow, as context: I'm a JPEG shooter and do some minor editing on my pictures. Also, the Photography Plan lets you use Photoshop which I use from time to time, like to remove a spot with the clone stamp tool. I realize that, generally speaking, there's more features on Lightroom, like the slideshow windows, etc. Also, Lightroom has more cataloging features, like more colors to tag your pictures. For instance, I use the 'white' slider a lot on LR and can't seem to find it on DXO.

I have been using DXO PhotoLabs for a few days and I realize Lightroom has way more features. I'd like to know if some of you went that route, and if yes, if you miss something from Lightroom. I'm happy with it but Adobe's photography plan is starting to be a little expensive, and I'd rather buy a software once and for all than pay a monthly subscription. I'd like to see if this software can replace Lightroom, which I currently use to edit my pictures.
