To have the same functionality as lightroom you need to shell out the money for the Pro version, the free version has less functionality as compared to lightroom.
I'm currently using both Lightroom and C1-9 pro (for Sony).
Some of my initial impressions are:
1) for most cases raw rendering in C1 is slightly better then Lightroom (noise, sharpness, detail extraction)
2) for most cases this difference is very small and probably not visible unless you print very large
3) Lightroom's implementation of the image database is way more robust then C1 (so all my pictures go into LR, only the ones I think can benefit from C1 also go in there)
4) User friendlyness of Lightroom is much better in certain areas (for instance in LR you immediately see the effect of a mask, in C1 you first draw the mask, then you move the sliders to see the effect)
5) The custom color editor in C1 is awesome, and more flexible then the HSL sliders in LR
6) The user interface of LR is fixed, in C1 highly customizable, which is handy for some jobs/workflows
7) LR "seems" to create more headroom in highlights and shadows by making up colors when pixels are blown or blocked. In most cases the results are very presentable. C1 doesn't do this (or much less).
8 ) Perspective corrections in C1 are better, easier to operate and more flexible then in LR
9) Keywording, rating, color labeling are easier in LR (more different ways to get it done), Flagging is exclusive to LR (C1 doesn't have it)
10) C1 is way faster snapping to focus and exporting pictures. The more I use C1 the more I dislike the "Loading" spinner in LR. It's really a big difference.
This is all that comes to mind now after using (and liking) C1 pro, I'm sure there will be much more when I gain more experience.
In short, I like C1-pro but I wouldn't want to be without LR
