I can say, however, Ashampoo Photo Commander has a lot of photo-related features bundled into one soft. From editing to converting to effects to renaming slideshows to collages to burning on CD/DVD to organizing to optimizing and everything in between, if you name it Ashampoo Photo Commander 8 has some form of it.
