### "InPixio: easy, fast and fun"

November 22, 2022

5.0

Being able to manipulate pictures easily in a more or less professional way, without having to break the bank for high-end software is what INPIXIO offers, and I love it for that.

Pros

A very friendly software, fun to use with a lot of potentials to grow and become a leader in the domain.

Cons

to get the best deal you have to purchase the whole package. I, for instance, do not need or use the instacards, but I still, have to pay for it to get the better deal.

This software is absolutely unmatched with its editing capabilities . The ease of use, availability of features , and just overall completeness of this software is amazing

Pros

The ability to edit and add effect to images is unparalleled i absolutely love this software.

Cons

Its so feature rich that it can be a bit of a learning curve to learn all the features

The customer service is horrible. I emailed and asked for a refund multiple times and they keep refusing and say they will send me a user guide. dont buy this product

Pros

I purchased because it advertised that can easily remove objects.

Cons

Purchased to do photo editi going especially removing objects in a photo. When I segmented the area to be removed it ruined the photo

### "I recommend inPixio"

December 20, 2025

5.0

Easy to use! I especially like the erase objects feature because I tend to work with old photos and like removing people from a photo that has people that I'm not familiar with.

Pros

I find inPixio easy to use, good value for the money. It's fun to use and I like bringing an old photograph back to life.

Cons

Nothing except I wish with my lifetime membership I would get the ongoing upgrades. I believe that new features should be included with a lifetime subscription.

### "Remove unwanted objects"

August 16, 2022

4.0

I benefitted from using the sky replacement and background removal tools of inPixio Photo Studio. I had taken the perfect shot of a bride in her gown but someones shoulder was in the frame, I did not want to crop the photo so object removal was my only option. The photo turned out perfect, but I was disappointed with my overall experience. InPixio Photo Studio is not a full fledged photo editing software.

Pros

Inpixio Photo Studio can edit photos and videos and has some graphic design tools as well. The best features are the object removal, which works like an eraser for anything you didn't intend to capture, and the precise background removal. Some background removers can leave a thick line of background or remove a persons arm, leg, or hair on accident. The inPixio Photo Studio background remover is more detailed and performs better. The textured overlays are great as well as the photomontages.

Cons

I felt that I had been mislead about the product capabilities and the price. I was under the impression that this was a one time purchase and not a subscription, which was the reason I purchased it. It is not a one time purchase. I was also under the impression that the product was capable of more and included more after reading the description. Some of the tools that are included were not of the quality that they were described to be and some were actually add ons and were not included at all. Customer support is not readily available. I was never able to reach them through any form of communication after multiple attempts.

Reason for choosing inPixio Photo Studio

I wanted to try the object removal from inPixio Photo Studio

### "Support Problems"

July 20, 2024

2.0

Support is not acceptable. The owner needs to have support available for actual phone troubleshooting standard US times, or should refund if they can't get your software working remotely.

Pros

The program performs close to Light Room level when it works.

Cons

After being pushed with 2 forced paid upgrade notifications in 2 years, after purchasing a lifetime subscription my sofware still won't work. Support is not available US standard business hours, so I switched back to Light Room and am out $100 for nothing.

Extremely disappointed.

Pros

The price was most attractive to me. However, the app did not function as it was advertised. I definitely would not recommend this product to anyone.

Cons

The app does not function as advertised.

November 24, 2020

5.0

I use this software to create special photos in our business that really helps to make our internet presents standout!

Pros

Simple to use. Easy to create whatever you can imagine.

Cons

I did not see any cons. The learning curve was pretty small. I am 72 years old never been that tech savvy so this product made things easier.

### "Dont Do it!.."

August 9, 2024

1.0

when I first signed up I had to convert my images over aagin for the program to except it and I was ok with that I guess because the background removal tool was doing ok although you had to do little extras with that as well but once I closed the online version I had to download the program onto mu computer to access it..Once I removed the background which is now doing a worse job I cannot download images without the Inpixio watermark and i have paid the yearly subscription..Bogus.. I dont know about anyone else but I dont have money to just give away!

Pros

I removed the background and that was it and that was all..

Cons

Once I purchased the subscription for a year I was not able to download photos without watermark and the background removal is bogus after the fact..Not sure what happened!..What did I pay for?! You have been warned!..

### "My Review for inPixio Photo Studio"

February 23, 2022

5.0

Despite the hiccups present, inPixio Photo Studio contains very advanced features to meet your photo editing demands, without paying too much for the same set of functions.

Pros

inPixio Photo Studio carries out the same features as that of the leading photo editing software in the market. It contains excellent video tutorials that you need to fully utilize the software.

Cons

There is an instance when I was editing a picture that the background eraser tool failed to fully remove the background of the photo, which has made it more pixelated and distorted.

### "A very cool software that's easy to use out the door"

December 3, 2020

4.0

It's a great idea but the hype to make it look like a PIECE OF CAKE to remove background is just that, HYPE. On Facebook where I first saw InPixio, you made it look like two or three steps, when in reality, as a US Navy Graphic Illustrator and Designer (35 years in the business with 11 before that in the Navy), it's NOT that simple. I use precision and detail to make my pictures PERFECT. InPixio is not that but what it is, is a simpler way to get started and nothing more.

Pros

I used it for all the pictures on www.kenyonglover.net on the front page. I'm an avid user of Paintshop Pro since it was first brought out by JASC in the late 90's. InPixio is far easier to use for background erasing.

Cons

The background erasing tool is weird and doesn't completely do the trick. The edges around the picture remain and thus, I had to go back into Paintshop Pro and use the point-to-point edge select tool to remove the ghosts from the background InPixio couldn't or wouldn't remove. Took me more time but it shows that InPixio needs fine tuning. If you look at the pictures on the website above, the edges are CLEAN because I used Paintshop Pro to do the finishing.

Reason for choosing inPixio Photo Studio

I didn't! I bought InPixio as an faster way to remove backgrounds because Paintshop Pro is deficient.

### "Good all around photo manipulation package!"

December 7, 2020

5.0

I use inPixio less frequently than I thought I might, but I have been pleased when I have used it to correct or edit photos. I will have to think about the expense of renewing for another year versus switching to another, perhaps free product, based on my actual need.

Pros

Let's face it, when it comes to photo editing packages, there are a kabillion choices. Some are free. Some are super expensive. Some have lots of advanced features; some have only basic features. Some have clunky looking, dated interfaces; some have attractive, modern interfaces. inPixio Photo Studio Ultimate represents a good balance of everything you might need in a photo editing program. It looks great, has some very advanced features, and has additional available components that integrate nicely into the main menu interface. The interface is clean and consistent across modules. The components work very well. Results are similar to or better than other good products.

Cons

I am not fond of subscription-based software. I would prefer to pay just a little more and have the license for several years. Also, I am disappointed with the image conversion options, as the program does not support as many formats as one would expect from an "ultimate" package. Even the free Irfanview supports conversions between far more formats.

Pros

I like the results. Picture quality is good

Cons

It is confusing to an amatuer like me. I would like to see some easy/peasy ways to do things

Reason for choosing inPixio Photo Studio

thought it had what I needed and was easy. Not so much in the easy department. I don't need the deep change abilities, I just crop and want to lose some backgrounds. Backgrounds are my problems.

December 26, 2020

Thank you for the feedback. I am glad to hear you like InPixio Photo Studio. I would be glad to help you with deleting back grounds. Here is a small guide on how you can delete background more effectively: Firstly, you need to fill in the areas you want to keep with green marker. Then, choose the red marker, zoom in and make some adjustments around the edges. Finally, if some unwanted areas of the picture still remain use the large size red maker to remove them.

December 7, 2020

5.0

I like the programs and use at least one every day.

Pros

You can see the editing as you do it, still learning but all programs work together easy

Cons

Sometimes you just want a quick crop and one touch enhancing, for quick editing, sorry but like on iPhone, One button fix.

### "Photographers’ Best Friend"

December 3, 2020

5.0

The overall experience with inPixio Photo Studio has been a Godsend for me. It is user-friendly, intuitive and makes my photos look like a pro’s shots. I am SO happy to have a program suite where I can do the editing on my PC without a computer science degree!!

Pros

I truly enjoy this software. I have been using my iPhone/Pads to edit photos since PC compatible photo editing and enhancement software is both terribly expensive and has a steep learning curve. inPixio Photo Studio has changed all of that! It is intuitive and accurate while remaining a powerful tool for those who want their photos to look their best and to create new appearances with any photo. Personally, I give it an A+ !! ~Rev. Cal Kemper

Cons

I just want more of inPixio’s programs as I am able to get them. This suite of programs is awesome. “More” is tough on a minister’s salary, but I’m saving up for MORE!! No complaints.

Customer service? What customer service. Asked for money back and they have not complied.

Pros

Purchased for new assistant, the product I was given is worthless.

Cons

That it was a bait and switch situation. "You have to buy this to do that" Then I was given the simplest form of the product when I specifically asked for their top app.

I didn't, I asked for one product and was given another. No customer service.

Pros

Cons

I became incredibly frustrated and she told me that if I didn't like the product it was easy to get a refund . I have emailed twice for a refund with no results.

### "InPixio not for Serious Photo Editing"

January 22, 2023

1.0

A lot of hidden features, to find, I suppose to reduce clutter? Never Switch to this or any other product until, used first. Very expensive, one time purchase, not the subscription, but it's unable to perform to their own advertising. The subcontracted install service most annoying, did not listen to my request to reduce the package to a single machine, wanted to sell me more Inpixio Stuff and when that did'nt work tried to sell me computer apps to speed it up and such. Told her I was going to reboot to drop her.

Pros

Haven't found anything that resembles what was marketed in this app.

Cons

Background removal not precise at all. Contracted installer, mostly interested in sales not customer satisfaction. Couln't get them to finish for another 10 minutes of listening to crap.

I like Pixio Pro. I wish there was an option for all the packages or a greater discount. I had to buy 2 because I needed a few more editing options. I still need one more.

Pros: Easy to install and use. This program i would say is great for beginners.

Cons

I have found this product to be just there when you really need it, that is the bonus.

Pros

What I found was that it was the ease of use as sometimes one finds themself pressed for time say in a deadline and things went well with the ease of performance.

As I have purchased "inpixio " products before and have always found them to be reliable, trustworthy, and enjoyable to use.
