Luminar Intro (A great alternative to Photoshop CC)

This application is amazing. The learning curve is very flat; in an hour we were bouncing around like pro's. All our photoshop plugins import, and Skylum has presets for many basic tasks that are like Photoshop actions on steroids. Except...the actions are live-time adjustable.
This is my first impression of the application for UAS, and we're very excited to keep digging into this alternative application that so far, seems as, if not more, powerful than Photoshop.

I have been seeking an alternative to Photoshop CC; I'm fed up with the random login requirements of Photoshop.

And we found Luminar.

It is unfortunate that Photoshop has become difficult to use. Photoshop has always been too expensive. Are Luminar's warp tools comparable to Photoshop's? GIMP has a warp tool of its own, but it lacks the same amount of power Photoshop's puppet warp tool possesses to make any genuinely accurate adjustments in difficult places.
