Lightroom vs Eagle.cool

Lightroom allows, for example, organizing images based on folders, color labels, flags, rating, keywords, GPS location, it can automatically create smart albums (albums that automatically update based on set rules) and it can be set to automatically backup, rename based on set rules, apply default processing, add keywords to images on import. It offers that functionality in an intuitive way and allows extensively customizing layout, behavior and workflow of managing assets to better suit your needs.

Can merge multiple shots into one in order to expand dynamic range.

Lightroom has built-in facial recognition support that can be used to find the same person in any collection of photographs.

Lightroom has over 900 lens profiles from all kinds of manufacturers, including major lens brands like Canon, Nikon, Leica, Pentax, Ricoh, etc. You can see the full list of supported lenses here. Lens profiles will in most cases speed up the process of correcting lens distortion down to 1-2 clicks.

At a high level the interface is organized into broad groups of tools called workflow modules. Modules like "Library" for asset management and "Develop" for manipulating the photos. Each module displays only those tools that are needed for that task. This allows you to separate concerns between tasks and reduces interface clutter. When you're, for example, developing the image, you're not bothered by interface tools relating to exporting it.

Within each module tools are grouped in a logical manner. Develop module, for example, will group tools relating to basic image adjustment, lens correction, and effects.

And there are a plethora of keyboard shortcuts that improve the workflow speed even further. At all times you can easily navigate between images you're working via arrow keys, quickly compare images before and after making edits with \, or see side by side comparisons with y.

You can connect your camera directly to Lightroom and have Lightroom display images as soon as they are captured.

Eagle sorts files in essentially a custom folder hierarchy called an 'eaglepack'. Everything is stored locally, but you can sync to the cloud by uploading the eagle folder to the cloud.

You can import from files on your PC or from online galleries like Pinterest, etc. On import Eagle pulls metadata like the URL the image was saved from.

Thumbnails in the GUI reference the full size file in file explorer, so you can freely drag and drop into your app of choice, e.g Premiere Pro.

Handles 81 types of files in Windows and 90 in MacOS.

Has extensions in Chrome, Firefox, Safari and Edge browser. Takes screenshots of pages and lets you categorize it straight away.

Eagle includes smart folders you can configure to hide/show content dependent on custom parameters like color, tags, category, folder, etc. Eagle pulls a sample of colors from every image you upload and you can easily filter and search by color.
