Negative: Only had problem with the installation. Could not login via start up on the Skylum account.
Overall everything is good!

Summary: I used to use other tools for photo post production but since I tried Luminar I only use this software.

Positive: The ease of use and the precision of the tools make this software one of the best I have ever used. I consider it essential for post-processing exceptional photos.

Negative: I've been using it for a year and so far I haven't found any defects.

Summary: I have used, and still use both Photoshop and Lightroom. But these past few years I mostly only use Luminar Neo. In Luminar Neo you have everything you would ever need. And, yes, sometimes I also use Luminar Neo just to play around, kind of as an amusement. Silly, yes, but that is how wonderful Luminar Neo is.

Positive: Luminar Neo is versatile, easy to learn and use. And gives you good results. And there are all the options you need - and even some more.

Negative: Sometimes it could be nice to use different text and fonts, but, then again, it is not that important.

Summary: Excellent. This program has exceeded my expectations, especially in the use of AI in editing (Structure sliders for example). Erase functions are the main attraction (can still be improved), but I also use dodge/burn and the clone tool quite a bit. Many photos can be dramatically improved with a change of sky. Much, much easier and faster than Photoshop.

Positive: Much easier to use than Photoshop, with better results in shorter time. I use it in conjunction with Apple Photos as an external editor. I originally started a subscription after evaluating Luminar Neo against other editors such as Inpaint, and Super Eraser for the erase application. Luminar turned out to be best. Later I discovered its AI functions, which are quite impressive.

Negative: The DeNoise sliders need improvement. I obtain better results with Topaz DeNoise, and use it for photos taken at high Iso. The erase brush is not perfect, and multiple applications are required to obtain acceptable results with complicated backgrounds.

Summary: Excellent support from the team. The response to my issues was almost immediate and all the issues were resolved by them. Can highly recommend!

Positive: I have had several minor issues about using Luminar Neo and have therefore consulted the support team.
On each occasion I have been very pleased with the speed of response and the answers to my issues, which have all been resolved due to the assistance received.

Negative: Doesn't apply as all my issues were resolved by the team.

Summary: Good; brilliant support that has been very rapid in responding and all replies to emails handled by one person which is appreciated by this customer.

Positive: Easy programme to use for post processing with lots of presets and tools that work, and I like being able to use it as a plug-in to Apple Photo.

Negative: Difficult if you are not totally computer savvy to update and get new presets in to Luminar Neo in my opinion.

Summary: Excellent product and the support is prompt and solves the problem without bouncing around to try to find a solution.

Positive: First, the product and its upgrades are great. As with any good program, there are times when technical support is needed to solve a particular problem. This is where Luminar really shines. The chat function as well as using emails to contact support is fast - no waiting for 20 minutes just to have someone plow through a checklist to try to solve your problem. The tech support is very well trained identified my problems and was able to give me a direct answer.

Negative: There is a learning curve but that is to be expected when learning a new product.

Summary: The crash happened just before the weekend, no luck but Monday everything was back to normal and I was able to continue developing the photos for a contest.

Positive: The discussion with the technician. The explanations via the emails received and the questions asked in order to solve the problem.

Negative: The crash after an update. I’ve had a lot of updates and this is the first time that happens to me.

Summary: Just great can edit a photo in minutes beautiful menus easy to learn just great the AI is amazing works very well scaling denoise color brightness editing works very well too.

Positive: The program is very intuitive, easy to use and simply fantastic, it identifies the elements of the photo and creates modifications perfectly that adapt to the photo elements and photo lighting.

Negative: Until now didn't find anything that I didn't like.

Summary: Extremely satisfied with what the tool offers, both as standalone tool and as a plugin for Photoshop & Lightroom. The pricing is more than fair.

Positive: It can be used as a standalone tool, and it can also be integrated to tools such as Photoshop & Lightroom. Needless to say, Generative AI feature improves efficiency.

Negative: It can be quite complex for beginners to set everything up initially. However, once you are settled, everything becomes extremely simple.

Summary: This is the level of support that all businesses should try and match, from start to finish they were Fantastic.

Positive: Luminar support provided a quick response to my problem and everything ended with a great great result.

Negative: No cons to report, the support team did everything to help me [big thanks to Kyrylo from Luminar Tech Support for everything].

Summary: I tried other similar products but they were too complex for me. I had to work too hard and it restricted my creativity. My work requires freedom and flow and Luminar Neo fulfills all my needs and desires. And it's fun.

Positive: Luminar Neo is highly intuitive and therefore easy to learn, or re-learn after a break.
The support is exceptional as is the astounding number of enhancements, free or paid.
It offers incredible freedom in post-processing and discovery as you are immersed in the process.
