### "El photoshop online más completo pero básico"

December 16, 2022

4.0

Para edición básica de archivos .psd puntuales está bien, aunque no lo recomendaría como herramienta principal de diseño.

Pros

Me encanta poder usarlo en línea sin necesidad de instalar nada. Para cosas sencillas de diseño va bien pero si quieres un acabado profesional ve directamente a Photoshop.

Cons

Percibo que la importación y exportación de archivos no es lo suficientemente buena. Sobre todo la importación de archivos .ai (vectoriales) no es completa, aparecen segmentos vacíos.

### "One of the best"

April 21, 2023

5.0

We used it for a while and it worked really good, it's a really valid software.

Pros

It's really similar to another well-known software, which we couldn't use before for several reasons, it has a lot of fuctions and it's really smooth.

Cons

The software hasn't showed signs of bugs etc, it worked really well for me. Even though, if my computer crashed, it didn't save my work.

### "My go-to website when I do not have Photoshop "

September 26, 2023

5.0

Pros

When I had a low-end PC, I would use PhotoPea and it worked like a charm. It had all the needed feature and I would not miss Photoshop at all. Even with a higher end PC, I would use PhotoPea when I did not have access to Photoshop. So, PhotoPea is an amazing alternative to Photoshop which is lite and easy to use on the go.

Cons

Sometimes, the website can be slow but with the features it gives, we can not complain. It is amazing and nothing really bad to say about it.

### "Excellent Online Resource "

April 3, 2021

5.0

My overall experience is great and I would highly recommend it to anyone who needs editing done in a simple and quick way. You don't need to pay for very advanced tools when Photopea can save the day.

Pros

I've been using Photopea online for a year to make adjustments to the digital greeting cards that I am creating to sell online via different freelancing platforms. I can confidently say that it's an excellent tool to use even when you need advanced editing options as Photopea is just great with its capabilities. I can easily change colors, create and edit layers, save files as any format needed.

Cons

The only thing which I would like to be improved is the zoom function in browser, as it's a bit difficult to control it without a scrolling bar.

### "Mi experiencia en Photopea"

August 1, 2023

5.0

La herramienta cumple con su función. Es una buena opción y alternativa si no puedes tener otro programa equivalente que sea de descarga e instalación. Además de que puedes usarlo gratis en línea.

Pros

Photopea es una herramienta muy útil para quienes se inician en el mundo del diseño y la edición de imágenes, y buscan una alternativa gratuita a Photoshop.

Cons

Buscar una función determinada entre tantas puede resultar un poco estresante, pero salvo por ese detalle, me parece que Photopea tiene todo lo que necesito.

### "Undoubtedly a very complete site to edit images at the level of other professional software"

October 3, 2021

4.0

I use photopea as an alternative option when I am away from my editing program and need to make certain modifications, I don't use it very often but it is always an incredible alternative and I recommend it for those who are starting to get used to image editing and want to start leaving. to a more professional platform, this is it.

Pros

This online editor impressed me, it is very complete, it has the necessary and complete options to make the professional editing space, options such as liquefying, layered work, even filters and smart selection options, I like it because it is online and it is an alternative incredible to use it anywhere with an internet connection without having to install it, and the best thing is the diversity of formats that it accepts such as psd, Ai among others I am really impressed with the quality of the interface that this program has and how easy and intuitive it is to use.

Cons

There is not much to say about cons, only that some options may be limited, but it is normal, it happens in all programs, you cannot always have everything resolved, that is why these reviews are to help these programs to improve .

The functionality of this online platform is amazing! Everything you need for professional photo editing is available online.

### "I vantaggi di Photopea"

February 11, 2023

4.0

Pros

Si tratta di un software online che ti permette di creare disegni digitali o di modificare immagini. L'ho utilizzato con una tavoletta grafica e l'ho trovato molto efficiente, all'altezza dei programmi a pagamento.

Cons

Le prime volte si fa fatica a trovare gli strumenti che servono. Dopo un paio di utilizzi diventa più intuitivo e si imparano le scorciatoie per selezionare lo strumento desiderato.

### "Best Free Photo Editor"

March 17, 2022

5.0

My overall experience is awesome with Photopea. It is very easy to use and I can make good designs within a few mints even without having a high configuration computer.

Pros

Photopea is one of the best photo editing apps out there. It's clean, easy to use and offers great features! I've been using Photopea for a few months now and I'm really happy with it. It's easy to use, has a great interface, and is very intuitive. I love that it's so easy to use and that it has all the features I need. The best thing about Photopea is that it's free!

Cons

As it is an open source you can't expect high level premiumness like photoshop. And comparing Photopea with Photoshop is not justified at all.

### "Your Photo Editing Bestie"

September 24, 2022

3.0

Overall, the program is a suitable alternative for those who can't afford the more expensive photo editing programs. Although there is a learning curve, once you get the hang of where everything is it's pretty much smooth sailing from there.

Pros

The program allows you to maneuver around your workplace easily and makes identifying what you would like to fix or add to images a breeze. There are many cool features and it makes editing fun.

Cons

There is a learning curve to the program, like many others before it. It sometimes runs slowly depending on the size of project you're working on, so you have to be patient when editing and searching for its tools. Therefore it takes some time to get use to the program itself.

### "Photopea trumps Photoshop"

June 6, 2022

5.0

Very pleased! Highly recommend!

Pros

What I love most about Photopea is it is essentially a free, web based photoshop software. I like the functionality and ease of using Photopea for anything I could do in other photo editing softwares. It is simple to use, easy to navigate and a multitude of photo editing options.

Cons

Not too many font or brush options (possibly able to import your own) and sometimes it lags a tad but other than that, I have had no issue using this software.

### "Perfect for beginners"

August 26, 2020

3.0

This is a perfect software for beginners and helps alot when one needs something done very quickly. Does the job very well for simple not demanding tasks.

Pros

The ease of deployment and the accessibility is top. The low technical requirements is a main competitive advantage.

Cons

It does not work very well with all PSD files. Sometimes there is a problem with layers - they dissapear or are visualized in a different color. This is only for complex projects.

Alternatives considered

Reason for choosing Photopea

Because of the similarity with Photoshop. One does not need to make an account to use it. Just load and go.

### "Opiniones sobre Photopea"

August 5, 2023

Photopea es una buena herramienta sobre todo para diseñadores principiantes, pero si quieres algo muy profesional no es tu mejor opción.

Pros

Está muy bien la herramienta y lo mejor es que no necesita descarga ya que se puede usar en línea.

Cons

Una desventaja que le veo es el hecho de que si quieres un resultado muy profesional es posible que encuentres algunas limitaciones.

### "Mi revisión de Photopea"

August 4, 2023

En general me gusta Photopea porque es una alternativa gratuita a Photoshop y lo puedo utilizar en línea sin necesidad de descargar nada.

Pros

Me gusta que pueda usar Photopea de manera gratuita y es muy parecido a Photoshop en su interfaz.

Cons

Lo que menos me gusta de esta herramienta es su complejidad a la hora de trabajar con varias capas.

### "El mejor editor de imágenes sin instalación"

November 14, 2022

5.0

Para ser una herramienta que se puede utilizar de forma gratuita (con anuncios) dispone de muchos filtros y efectos para utilizar. Tiene herramientas avanzadas que ayudan a conseguir lo que quieres hacer más fácil.

Pros

Permite utilizar archivos con capas creados en programas profesionales como Photoshop. Se utiliza de forma online desde cualquier navegador de internet y no necesita ser instalado en el disco duro. Es ideal para trabajos de páginas web o blogs, y con imágenes de tamaño medio-pequeño.

Cons

Aunque tiene muchas funciones, algunas avanzadas, al ser online le cuesta trabajar con imágenes de alta calidad, por lo que paar trabajos de impresión de gran formato es mejor utilizar un programa tradicional instalado en el ordenador.

### "Photoshop wasn't working - went to the web "

June 19, 2020

5.0

When I bought my new macbook pro and attempted to transfer my copy of photoshop to it from my old mac it just did not function properly. I then had my old mac that has been working like a champ still, slow but still working and it was doing fine. Just a few days ago it just would not boot up and I had to do an important graphic work for my website and I thought I was doomed. I went on line and looked up free photoshop options and found photopea and man it might as well be Photoshop - very awesome indeed - I got my work done and have had other projects come up and I believe I found my replacement

Pros

This might as well be Photoshop but online. I don't use photoshop for expert level graphic design but simple promotional items for events and things for my website and I was able to do the same thing I was able to on Photopea than I was able to do on Photoshop

Cons

When I open up an image and I save or export it just saves with the name I initially opened up versus allowing me to do a true save as...

April 6, 2021

I had to convert a .sketch file to .psd. Using windows i wasnt able to open .sketch files but thanks to photopea i was able to convert to .psd and keep all layers and editability.

Pros

The webbased app able to import a lange amount of different file formats and exporting them to other formats. Even across operating systems. From Mac to windows with .sketch to .psd

Cons

Sometimes it was a but slow and i had to wait several hours to be able to save or convert with the free version. Minor inconvenience for free software that had functionality that i needed to use.
