I tried DPP and found it clunky and unintuitive. I like LR much better as it has more features and plenty of tutorials available online. Elements has even more features than LR but the newer versions, PSE11 are far better. If I had to make the choice, I'd go with elements and then upgrade to the newest version. There are plenty of tutorials available for it online, too.
I am primarily a LR4 user. While DPP is light on functionality, what it does do, it does well. It is easy to learn and use. I disagree with the clunky and unintuitive comment. I am not comparing it to Lightroom, but for a free program that can easily make final exposure adjustments to RAW photos that are already decent, it is an excellent choice. That is especially true if you want to retain the original in-camera settings. IMHO its the perfect PP tool for Canon shooters who really don't like post processing, but would occasionally like to nudge or tweak an image a little.
