DxO Optics Pro. Doesn't require a subscription, supports tagging and
keyword searching, but lets you set up your own structure, and leaves
your, photos right where you left them.
It's biggest issue is not supporting Pentax cameras prior to K10D.
It's second biggest flaw is it kind of wants to nanny you. If it
doesn't recognize a lens, it looks for what it thinks is the correct one
and nags you to download that module, unless you turn off that feature.
It does a nice job rendering K20D and K-5II files, and best of all it's
not an Adobe product.
I've been testing other options and Raw Therapee is pretty good, and
supports more camera bodies, but it's interface is very quirky, and
Darktable is a bit slow. I haven't checked if it covers all the
camera's I've created files with, but I decided not to use it because it
was slow, compared to DxO Optics Pro.

Lightroom 6 for me. I often need to look for what photos I have of a

Lightroom CC is out of the question for practical reasons (main phases
of activity at a place with dreadfully slow internet access) and for
principal questions.
Tried Darktable and find it awfuly clumsy and far too slow.
What else is there, if anything? I need the database function, the RAW
development tools, lens corrections, and the map function.
Any suggestions?
Ralph,
I have a similar dilemma. I want to start with raw development and I would
prefer to avoid a subscription model.
I was considering Darktable and Rawtherapee and I am interested in your
findings on the former. Where did you installed it (OS/hardware...) ?
Thanks !
Jaume
