Corel PaintShop Pro is superior to Photoshop Elements in many ways, as it is a powerful application that is also easy to learn and includes several additional features, such as 360-degree photo processing.
It also includes a simplified workspace and is touchscreen compatible.
PaintShop Pro (and its upgrade, PaintShop Pro Ultimate) is also often cheaper than Photoshop Elements, making it a good deal.
Corel’s most significant disadvantage over Photoshop is that while Photoshop Elements is compatible with both macOS and Windows computers, PaintShop Pro is only available for Windows.
