Good advice, except that the question isn't about LR, it's about Exposure X4. Not the same thing. And suggesting someone change products, when that doesn't really address the question, doesn't seem terribly helpful. IMNSHO, of course.

Whether C1 is applicable to their needs, or already has been disqualified I cannot say. But, in a situation of looking for an alternative, from my own, very subjective and limited experience using Lr, C1 and Exposure over the last many years, I believe mentioning of the C1 is worthwhile. Leaving it to the OP to own their research and determination.
My understanding they already contemplating changing products. Trying something that won't cost them anything to try? Why not. But that's my personal, subjective take.
Well, if you want good answers, you need to ask good questions. Right?
Yes, the OP did mention an alternative to LR. Yes, there are worthy alternatives, and yes, C1 is a good one. Most of them have free trials, too. All good. Is exploring options a good thing? I would say yes, and I would not consider that at all subjective.
But since the original question seemed focused on Exposure, that's where I stayed. But I think your input here is good stuff, and hopefully the OP will come back and benefit from it.
