Verdict
Photoshop ranks first because it is the professional standard for pixel-level editing, and Generative Fill now handles object removal and background extension in seconds that used to take manual masking.
What customers praise
Generative Fill and Generative Expand remove objects and extend backgrounds convincingly, cutting retouching time on complex composites.
What customers criticise
The subscription-only model at $22.99 per month and a steep learning curve push away casual users and the budget-conscious.
Best for
Professional designers and photographers who need the deepest raster editing and retouching tools.
