Ashampoo is renowned for producing software which exemplifies the ultimate in user friendliness, and Photo Optimizer is no exception – as typified by Ashampoo Photo Optimizer’s simplistic yet remarkably powerful ‘one-click’ optimization feature. You probably won’t be able to tell from the ‘before and after’ display in following screenshot, but I can assure you the results are exceptional. I passed several original photos, which already looked perfectly fine to me, through the one-click feature and the enhancements are truly amazing:
While ease of use is Ashampoo’s trademark, more advanced users are not overlooked either – there is plenty under Photo Optimizer’s hood to satisfy the ‘enthusiast’. Options for performing manual corrections, adding effects, adding watermarks, and exporting are all well defined and very easy to locate in Ashampoo’s usual intuitive interface – from both the main menu across the top and from the right-side menus:
Ashampoo Photo Optimizer is ‘must have’ software for everyone who works with photos, whether a purely amateur ‘happy snapper’ (such as myself) or dedicated enthusiast.

thx for great giveaway
Appears to be a very nice product, thanks Ashampoo!
I take a lot of nature photos and make them into photocards which I either give away or sell in our monastery gift shop. I usually use Microsoft Picture Manager and get reasonable results from that software. Ashampoo Photo Optimizer 5 sounds like a very beneficial tool for my photography. I would appreciate a chance to receive this software via your offer. Thanks, Michaeleen Muhovich
Over the years I have purchased a number of Ashampoo products and am especially fond of their Burning Studio. And have their Magical Defrag running on my laptop all the time.
Ashampoo, you are so good to us, and I’m sure we will all enjoy using your new version.
It would be really great to win Ashampoo Photo Optimizer as my wife is constantly on at me to edit some old photographs but all the photo editing software is so expensive.
I got the Beta version for free a few days ago. Not bad but still some bugs. So of course, I would like to get the final release instead.
So I’m hoping to win one license. Thanks.
Love ashampoo software! Haven’t used this one yet, but hope to try it with my free license 🙂
Wish me luck!
Since I’m already a happy owner of Ashampoo’s Photo Commander X, I’m somewhat familiar with this German developer’s software lineup. Photo Commander is a more of a management/basic editing tool, and while it has a useful Optimize feature it is very basic in its scope and abilities. So it wouldn’t hurt to bolster my photo manipulation arsenal a bit with this application. Thanks for this giveaway, DCT and Ashampoo!
I want to win Ashampoo Photo Optimizer 5 and compare it with Ashampoo Photo Commander 9. Great contest. Please count me in. 🙂

Thank you for the giveaway! I’m currently using version 3 of Ashampoo Photo Optimizer and I would like to have it updated to version 5.
My daughter would love to have this program for all her photo needs. Hope to win her a license of this program. Please include me in your giveaway.
This looks like an outstanding program and one that I would love you use!!!
yes would like to see if this is better than Picasa!!
My wife would love this software, as she is not very computer literate and takes alot of pics. The ease of use and amazing results would really help her to touch up her beloved pics!
Thanks,
John Guerin
I am taking my girlfriend on her first cruise, my 7th. I am sure she will take lots of photos that would make the Photo Optimizer a welcome gift.
I have used previous versions before. Ashampoo makes very useful programs
Ashampoo Photo Optimizer makes my so-so photos look almost great.
Photo Optimizer is one of the few Ashampoo programs I do not own – but would find most useful for my amateur photo efforts.
It seems to be a handy one to use.
Instant improvement pictures, great program.
