Advertisement Posted November 13, 2017 Posted November 13, 2017 Hi Freightdawg747, Take a look here Is this software useful ( Offered through this forum). I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
Freightdawg747 Posted November 13, 2017 Author Share #2 Posted November 13, 2017 I want to stand corrected. Not offered by this forum but offered to subscribers of this forum. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
imagereflex Posted November 14, 2017 Share #3 Posted November 14, 2017 I also received that e-mail and figured it was worth trying out. However, the e-mail I received with download links and license keys seemed to link to the wrong software, and the license keys don't work. I'm hopeful that the company's customer support responds to my messages, but haven't received a response yet. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
imagereflex Posted November 14, 2017 Share #4 Posted November 14, 2017 I submitted another request to the company this morning through its website, and sent an e-mail to its "support" e-mail address, and still haven't received a response. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Exodies Posted November 14, 2017 Share #5 Posted November 14, 2017 I also received this email and deleted it. Does it really come from the forum? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
imagereflex Posted November 14, 2017 Share #6 Posted November 14, 2017 I'm not sure if the message legitimately came from the forum, and I've sent a request to forum administrators in an effort to clarify that issue. I still have not received a response from Franzis' support. Thus, I still don't have a working download link or working software keys. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pico Posted November 14, 2017 Share #7 Posted November 14, 2017 Advertisement (gone after registration) Franzis is in Germany, so there might be a time difference issue. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaapv Posted November 14, 2017 Share #8 Posted November 14, 2017 Maybe useful, for photographers that struggle with Lightroom and Photoshop. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
imagereflex Posted November 16, 2017 Share #9 Posted November 16, 2017 I received word back from the forum operators, and they sent it thinking it might be helpful for their members (us). I also finally received word back from Franzis, but only with new license keys, not with download links. I have not been able to find a download link for one of the packages, and can't find a plugin for another package (the denoise application, which is the one I thought might actually be useful). Also be warned that the software in the "special" is the crippled, standard version, and not the professional version that the company advertises on its website. After several days of aggravation, only two of the four applications are installed and licensed. I am waiting for another response from the folks in Germany in the hopes that they can get their act together and deliver the rest of the software that was supposed to be in the bundle. And yes, pico, I realize that there is a time difference. That time difference, however, does not account for support that takes days to respond to an inquiry from a new customer who can't install software. The really sad thing is that even paying only $29, I am coming to the conclusion that I overpaid for this garbage! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freightdawg747 Posted November 20, 2017 Author Share #10 Posted November 20, 2017 I purchased, just to have a look. Two of the programs would not download. I contacted PayPal and received a full refund after a few days. I managed to try the Sharpen that was included. Said program really did not accomplish much of anything.

imagereflex Posted November 24, 2017 Share #11 Posted November 24, 2017 Here's an update. After contacting the company that processed payments, I finally received an e-mail from the software company with a working link to the NEAT software, and a link and software key for Denoise with a photoshop plugin. Denoise is VERY slow. It seems to do some sort of processing for the image when getting into the program, and there does not seem to be a way to set a default ISO (I don't know about the rest of you, but I only resort to noise reduction software at high ISO; the default for the software seems to be ISO 125). As far as I can tell, there's no preference or setting to delay this initial image processing. Even once you've selected the level of noise reduction to apply, the software is slow (at least as compared with Topaz' and Imagenomic's plugins). Sharpen may be of some use to those just getting started with various approaches to image sharpening. It simplifies sharpening settings, but those already familiar with unsharp mask are likely to find they have more control doing it themselves. I'll update once I've tested the others.

adespen Posted November 24, 2017 Share #12 Posted November 24, 2017 I received, was tempted but put it on the back burner. So sorry to hear of the misfortunes of those who trusted. I wonder what a google search of reviews will bring. I use PayPal for their refund guarantees. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
