Canon cameras come with a nice comprehensive software bundle:EOS utility for camera controle and downloading photos and zoombrowzer/image browser than can also download photos, they are also able to rename downloaded photos which is very practical, the software knows which photos already on the card have been downloaded which ones are new and I usually select to download new ones only which is very handy.
In zoombrowser and DPP you can view AF points, rate and tag photos, DPP itself is a handy and very capable RAW converter it's my prefered for editing RAW photos with a few exceptions where I use ACR or DXO, none of that with Sony, really disappointed or am I missing something?

Well canon software is very practical, and as BC said DPP is great.
I downloaded a trial version of capture one then uninstalled it after three days, the catalogues idea doesn't work for me, neither did I like it's interface.
And no I am not going Sony, Canon is still by far a better system for me.

A classic example of vendor lock-in.
If one sticks to a camera manufacturer's converter, then they a screwed if they switch systems or use other brands.
Much better to have choices and the same workflow regardless of the brand.

Lada is a brand, not one car. And no Lada is particularly good at anything.
DPP, however, is a good RAW converter. It produces nice colours (interprets Canon files nicer than most LR profiles, for instance) and does very good things with Canon lens profiles and deconvolution.
