Topaz Labs in Addison offers Gigapixel AI, a photo editing and enhancement application.
I would definitely recommend PicMonkey! It is diverse for the average person or the business professional. If you need to edit pictures, create graphics, or implement marketing media this is the tool to use! It may not be enough for someone who needs something a bit more advanced like Photoshop, but in my experience it has covered everything I need.
We have used Topaz Gigapixel AI and recommended it to many friends, peers, and colleagues in the industry. We do this because we have had great success in using Topaz Gigapixel AI on landscape images to increase the quality and clarity of terrain and geographical features that play an important role in conveying the 'grandness' of a location - yet needed that extra boost that Topaz Gigapixel AI is able to provide. We've used Topaz Gigapixel AI to successfully and beautifully upscale and sharpen portraiture photography where it is imperative to capture the ultra-realistic essence of the person, their character, the beauty as well as their imperfections. That's what's great about Topaz Gigapixel AI, it doesn't 'mask' or 'make things up' that aren't there. It simply makes them all better. We have great equipment and excellent craftsmanship, however, having tools on hand like the Topaz Gigapixel AI software is a no-brainer for us to use in our work. It helps us make great work even greater. And that's everything we can hope for in focusing on real people in our photographs. Trust the process. People will recognize and call it out if you get something wrong. Yet, no one says a thing when it all looks so good that that is all they can focus on. Well, that's exactly why we use Topaz Gigapixel AI in our day to day workflows.
PicMonkey's usability is outstanding! I was able to learn how to edit my photos and create graphics in a short period of time. Between the tutorials and the amazing user interface, I felt like a pro! PicMonkey is very detailed but not so overwhelming that you miss out on great features.
I personally never really need support with PicMonkey. It works great, and I can find what I need. There may have been a few times when I've Googled for an answer related to PicMonkey, but I've not had a question answered.
Topaz always responds to my questions in a few hours or a day at most. They've been able to explain their answers and give detail I needed to complete my work. Their instructions are quite clear and easy to use. I haven't had to reference any third-party support sources to get answers.
Adobe Photoshop is a better service with many more options, but for basic image manipulation for someone who is a beginner, PicMonkey is superior. There is almost NO learning curve. Canva has much better templates and design options, but not as many photo editing options. I like to use a combination of PicMonkey and Canva for my small-business marketing needs.
