What’s new?įirst released more than two decades ago, Adobe Photoshop Elements has reached a level of maturity that places many of its updates into the evolutionary versus revolutionary category. Project-oriented users, such as scrapbookers and craftspeople, as well as those who want to add artistic or fun effects to their images, often gravitate to Adobe Photoshop Elements for its creative content as well as its ease of use. Users can opt to edit photos on their own, utilize automatic adjustments or get assistance from the software’s Guided Edits. It's the only remaining Adobe product to come as a perpetual license, so if you like this version of Photoshop Elements, you can stick with it for years to come.

With the power of Adobe Photoshop at its core, Elements includes many of the features of its high-end sibling but without the steep learning curve (or, maybe more importantly, the subscription commitment).
