Converseen vs ImBatch

Converseen is a free batch image processor for Windows, Linux, macOS, FreeBSD and other operating systems. It converts, resizes, rotates, flips and compresses images, and renames groups using progressive numbers or prefix and suffix values. Through ImageMagick, it handles more than 100 formats, including DPX, EXR, GIF, JPEG, JPEG-2000, PNG, SVG, TIFF, WebP and HEIC/HEIF. It can turn a full PDF or selected pages into images with chosen dimensions and formats, and extract images from Windows icon files. Converseen is built with open-source frameworks and libraries including Qt and ImageMagick; its source is released under GNU GPL version 3. Linux installation options include source code, AppImage, Snap, Flatpak and distribution repositories. The program does not transfer information to other networked systems. The Free plan is free. Windows and Linux users need Ghostscript configured for PDF processing, and the macOS release is beta and not currently codesigned.

ImBatch is a Windows image-processing tool for applying complex task sequences to hundreds of images. Users build reusable projects, reorder tasks, and enable or disable individual steps. Watched folders can automatically process new images with a saved build. A Preview Pane shows the expected result before processing, and builds can be added to Windows Explorer for right-click use. Silent command-line operation can load task files and images, run processing, then close. The software supports formats including BMP, TIFF, GIF, JPEG, PNG and J2K, with DCRaw, ImageMagick and JBig plug-ins. It also lists RAW processing, bulk renaming, bulk resizing, FTP upload and output formats such as WebP. Downloads support Windows 7, 8, 10 and 11 in 32-bit and 64-bit versions. Free personal use costs nothing; paid licenses start at 39.95 USD once.
