Comments about Nik Software Viveza 2 Software (Academic License):
One of the best things about this software is the ability to change the exposure, saturation, contrast, etc. of specific areas of the photo. Other software I've used only effected global changes or I've had to create tedious masks to work on a specific area. What a huge time saver! I use this software within Adobe Photoshop Elements 8 on a Mac, and it works flawlessly.
The customer support is also excellent. I emailed questions to the company on two different occasions and each was answered thoroughly and promptly.

Comments about Nik Software Viveza 2 Software (Academic License):
Being a huge fan of Silver Efex Pro 2 getting Viveza for my color images was a no brainer. Control points are the best way I've found to make precise adjustments to localized areas of color and tone. I essentially use them like masks only it's often much easier than masks in PS and to isolate regions (Lightroom allows one to isolate a color but it's throughout the image.) It's not that you can't eventually accomplish the same tasks in PS or LR but Viveza adds a tool that makes my overall digital workflow easier and more efficient.
