Co-owner
5.0

Destiny G.: My name is Destiny. I'm the CEO and founder of Do Designs, a branding agency. I would give Adobe Creative Suite a five out of five. I pretty much started out using Adobe from the beginning of my career as one of the tools that I was introduced to when I was in school learning design. Over the years, I have tried other tools, including Canva, which I still use today for quick projects. But for bigger projects and particularly logos and things like that, I always use Illustrator, Adobe Creative Suite. I've also used Affinity Designer, which I like as a tool, but I guess I find Illustrator more the one-to-one comparison would be with Illustrator, and I find that to be a little bit more intuitive for me since it's the tool that I've been trained on. As a designer, the tools that I primarily use are Illustrator and Photoshop. I've continuously used Adobe Creative Suite throughout the years, because in a way it's like an industry standard for my field for one. And then two, I've not really found any other tools besides Affinity that creates as many, particularly for Illustrator, like the Vector images and things like that, I wouldn't be able to get that output from some of the other tools that I've been I using. I primarily use it because it's what I know and it's industry standard and it works. I would say to get started using this as a tool in your business, you definitely would need to take advantage of the different tutorials and things like that. It's not something I find to be so intuitive that you can just pick it up. You definitely need to tap into the resources that Adobe does actually provide, the library of videos and things like that explaining how the tools work. It's just a tool with a vast number of ways to do the same thing. I would say on a scale between one and five, in terms of ease of use, I would say it's about a three. You definitely need training to leverage this tool. I guess I would say for those who are considering using Adobe Creative Cloud, I primarily use a few of the tools within the whole Creative Cloud, but again, Illustrator and Photoshop. But I will say that it's definitely worth the investment, and it's definitely worth putting in the time to learn how to use this tool. There's so much you can do with it. It's pretty much endless possibilities. They have just a vast range of other tools within the suite that pretty much allow you to do whatever creative things you need to do in order to promote your business or execute your vision for your business. I would definitely recommend Adobe Creative Suite for other business owners who are thinking about creative tools to leverage to make their businesses better.
