Autodesk Maya vs. Corel PaintShop Pro

Autodesk Maya is a great software, it has so many tools that you can create a full movie without even jumping to any other software. Although it's pretty hard to learn but there is nothing more fun, once you get a hang of it. In general, its tools are best for modeling and animation.

Corel PaintShop Pro is well suited for photographers wanting to adjust photos and also for designers who want to create designs from scratch, working in layers and merging various elements. Due to slow load times, Corel PaintShop Pro is not well suited when you only have a few small tasks to do and when a lightweight alternative will do the job just as well (e.g. cropping and red-eye removal).

• Easy to build workflow due to strong customizability.
• Industry share. Easy to collaborate with other companies.
• Strong cooperation with other software.

• Right now Maya has no good viewport like Blender 2.8 has. It is good that Maya 2019 devs focused on performance and stability but it's strange to see that mainstream soft aren't on trend in developing really cool and helpful tools.
• Maya LT is very good for artist who don't need complex FX tools. So the devs must add python API to Maya LT.
• Add more helpful tools to modeling section especially for retopology.

• I would like to see better smart cropping, we have the need for use in our carrying and travel cases for foam cut-outs. This requires a picture to be taken of the product and then outlined. The latest Apple update does a much better job of it than Corel. A definite need in our business

It's what I am most familiar with.

As Autodesk Maya was one of the first softwares I learned, so I feel very fun to work with it. The overall usabilty feels very natural to me and I felt it's easy to learn but tough to master kind of software. Some people find it very difficult to learn, so I deduced some rating points.

I previously tagged Corel PaintShop Pro as an 8, but I'm moving on up to 10. I've been a user for many years. I always purchase the updates when they come out, and they have consistently gotten better with each release. Corel PaintShop Pro provides features that I haven't seen in other similar apps at this price point - alot of bang for the buck. If Corel keeps making and updating this program, I will absolutely keep purchasing it.

Always available when I need to use it

I would say that the program loads a LITTLE slow, but that's not a problem, considering everything that likely needs to load in the background for it to do what it does. Once running, the program performs very acceptably.

Great product and great solution for our photo re-touching and web work as an enhancement to CorelDraw

We were evaluating the products within the Adobe portfolio like Adobe Animate, Adobe PhotoShop, Adobe After Effects majorly among few others before finalising on the Autodesk Maya. One of the major reasons for that was earlier experience with the Autodesk Maya tool for the engineer and also it has more to offer than Adobe with multiple products.

I find Corel PaintShop Pro to be a lot more user friendly and affordable.

No contract terms. This is a standalone desktop app. Pricing is very affordable. Don't change a thing.

So far, any use I've had with paintshop pro is already in the standard scope

• Effectively able to get the designs created and visualised
• Video creation for concepts has become easy
• ROI has been good, but if the costing is brought down then its even more amazing

• Our website is better because of Corel PaintShop Pro
• Our brochures for tradeshows are much better due to PaintShop Pro
