Zoner Studio Wins the Prestigious EISA Award

Zoner Studio made it onto this year’s list of best photography tools worldwide. Zoner Studio was named EISA Photo Software for 2025–2026, a title reserved for the best photo editing software. Presented annually by the Expert Imaging and Sound Association (EISA), this award is the result of extensive testing and evaluation by 56 experts in the field of media technology from 30 countries.

The judges praised Zoner Studio’s combination of a user-friendly interface with a wide range of editing features, including AI-powered tools. These AI tools speed up photo editing by automatically masking objects, sorting images, or performing batch edits. This allows photographers to focus more on the creative process and less on tedious technical tasks.   

,,Zoner Studio is a European image-editing program for Windows PC users that combines user-friendliness with high functionality. It is suitable for both moderately advanced and professional photographers. The range of features leaves nothing to be desired, while easy-to-understand help pop-up boxes explain each function. In addition, a powerful photo management and organization tool is integrated. Artificial intelligence helps automate previously tedious tasks such as masking images or image culling, speeding them up enormously and helping to save a lot of time. It’s very affordable, too, as either a monthly or annual subscription.”
