There are a lot of features that are offered by both of these programs in the field of photo editing. The two programs differ in how many features they offer. One of the main differences is the fact that in Lightroom, you can choose between adding text and images to the photo, or you can even apply a photo-showing effect to your photos. There are also the options of choosing between a digital zoom, selective color and optical zoom. The final advantage of the Adobe Lightroom is its fast processing speeds, which makes it a great choice for editing photos.
