Another subscription option is to get the full Director Suite 365. A $54.99-per-year (often discounted) or $14.99-per-month subscription called PhotoDirector 365 gets you the photo program along with frequent updates, content packs, and 50GB online storage. The subscription options are a little different. You can bundle PhotoDirector together with our Editors' Choice-winning consumer video editor, PowerDirector, for $169.99. The non-subscription version of the app is called PhotoDirector 13 Ultra, and it has a list price of $99.99. Though all the additions could be considered feature-creep, the program remains impressive in both its usability and breadth of capabilities.

And unlike Photoshop, it has nondestructive workflow and collection organization features. Still, it goes beyond Lightroom with drawing tools, face-beautification tools, blur, and cartoon effects. But PhotoDirector lacks some powerful features Lightroom and Photoshop have, such as Subject Select and geotagged maps. You even get some impressive AI-powered image abilities like style transfer, content-aware removal, sky replacement, people masking, as well as with GIF animation. You get Photoshop-like tools such as adjustment layers, masks, text kerning, and guided edits. PhotoDirector does, however, give Adobe a run for its money in terms of photo workflow and image editing. We highly recommend PhotoDirector, though our Editors' Choice photo applications remain Adobe Lightroom, Photoshop, and Elements. CyberLink's PhotoDirector combines the photo workflow features of Adobe Lightroom with functions found in Photoshop and adds hand-holding help features like those in Photoshop Elements, making it an all-in-one photo editing application for photo enthusiasts.
