Those who want to upgrade also have a special price for the same period: $59.99 instead of $79. It’s a wise marketing decision by DxO, I believe, as the price for the Nik Collection 2 with the DxO PhotoLab 2.3 ESSENTIAL Edition is $99.99 instead of $149, if acquired until June 30, 2019. While the version included does not offer all the features you get from the ELITE edition of DxO PhotoLab 2.3, it does allow users to get the essential tools to edit their images, RAWs included, which can lead users to buy the top version of the app.

It’s an interesting move and one that may interest those who are after an alternative to solutions as Photoshop or Lightroom, or even any of the other photo editing apps available on the market. In addition, the Nik Collection 2 now comes with DxO PhotoLab 2.3 ESSENTIAL Edition, DxO’s recently released advanced RAW photo editing software. Now DxO is back with an expansion to the plugin suite, introducing more than 40 new creative presets and high-resolution monitor support for Windows. DxO knew better, and in 2018 the company released the software’s first stable version with customer support, making thousands of users of the original version happy, by keeping alive one of the most cherished special effects package. After bringing the Nik Collection back from the dead, in 2018, DxO now announces a major upgrade to the famous plugin suite, which now includes DxO’s PhotoLab RAW photo editor.īack in 2018 DxO brought the classic Nik Collection back to the market, after having acquired it from Google, who had acquired the software and distributed it freely, not knowing what to do with it.
