Anyway why it does seem that there are good alternatives (including free ones) for Corel stuff, 25€ for a bundle of such programs seems like a good deal anyway.

I haven't tried anything else from the bundle so I can't comment on those. But then again you have a lot of good free alternatives like Krita, Medibang, Fire Alpaca and what not. That being said I haven't used it much but I do like the interface and it seems to be pretty good. I got Corel Painter 2019, this bundle has 2020 version, but I keep getting pop-ups asking me to pay 140€ to upgrade to 2021 version (this pop-ups happen even if none of the Corel's programs are running which is annoying and I'm not sure can it be turned off). I haven't used GIMP in ages but I'd assume it evolved enough to be a strong competitor to Corel's Paint Shop Pro at least (you'd have to do some googling to make sure).

Corel Paint Shop Pro is not as good as Photoshop (which to be fair is very expensive unless you get it the you know what way). Why spend that time getting used to a tool you probably won't be using once the license expires instead of using that time to improve on something you would use long-term.Īnyway, I bought the previous Corel bundle and I wasn't very impressed.

It can take a while to get used to and master a tool you work it.
