I use them all daily. Very well integrated and easy to switch back and forth between them while working on projects. Cons Having to subscribe as a monthly or yearly service vs. purchasing the software outright. Review Source RP Rachel P.

July 24, 2018 5.0 Pros I've always loved Adobe products. Definitely the industry standard - the ease of use and bouncing between programs is pretty seamless. Cons Sometimes, newer updates have some issues. Typically they're just minor annoyances, but they're noticeable after using the software for a long time.

Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Marketing Manager Internet Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Very complete platform" November 29, 2018 5.0 Very good experience, and news tools and functionalities every time they update. Pros All the adobe apps are connected through one unique platform, which makes our lives much easier. It’s possible to estore preferences, styles and images. Cons Sometimes can be a bit slow when using heavy documents or images. Review Source DS David S. owner/photographer Photography Used the software for: 2+ years ### "As a professional photographer, the Adobe Cloud is a must. Period!" July 16, 2018 5.0 Everything I do with my digital photography, I use Adobe products, primarily Photoshop and Lightroom, but I also use Premiere Pro and After Affects for video. I spend more time with my Adobe products than I do with my family! Adobe is family to me! Pros All the Adobe products are within reach, like having everything they make be on one shelf, which is fantastic. Apps, learning tools, stock images, Behance and access to all the Adobe products make this such a valuable tool for anyone in the design or illustration or photography world. Cons There really aren't any cons, but if I was to pick one, I would say sometimes there are so many products that sometimes tend to overlap and a lot of updates, but I think that's a good thing! Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Publications Specialist Higher Education Used the software for: 2+ years ### "All The Creative Tools In One Place" July 18, 2019 5.0 Pros The best part about Adobe Creative Cloud is that it has a wide variety of apps for different projects. Cons What I like least is that many of the more powerful programs can tend to slow down your computer a fair amount. Review Source AB Alexander B. Managing attorney Law Practice Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Necessary " October 11, 2023 5.0 I've had a fabulous time, easily and competently editing. There's a small amount of skill needed to use the product. But, it doesn't have very deep editing controls. Pros The ability to access your projects, anywhere, seamlessly collaborate and edit is invaluable.The ability to add Bates numbering to any project, compress, or reformat is fabulous. Cons The product is really perfect. However, small tweaks could be made. The small tweaks could be contained to adding gridded coordinates for picture edits. And allowing numerical coordinates to be manually input to edit. Review Source AB Alex B. Manager, Media Tech Services Education Management Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Perfect Tool For Any Kind of Artist" April 2, 2020 5.0 Adobe is clearly listening to the public. Whenever I have an issue and find others are having the same, it seems like there is a fix or patch shortly there after. Pros The Adobe Creative cloud has just about every tool for any kind of creative work. Each application also works incredibly well with the others. A lot of tools also carry over from application to application so if you learn one, another may come a little easier. Cons Updates. Yearly updates can really screw up a group or class dynamic. For instance if person A. has CC20 and person B. hasn't updated from CC19 there can be issues when trying to share items or collaborating. Backwards compatibility would be an amazing addition to this software. Review Source Alfredo R. Project Manager Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Its a great tool to manage different adobe programs" August 1, 2018 5.0 professional development because it's a very common program for design. Pros You have every program from adobe in one place, and you can manage different softwares from one license. Cons It has a very high price for beginner designers, it depends from an internet connection to manage all the programs inside. Review Source KD Karin D. Artist Arts and Crafts Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Good, functional software, but too costly " October 11, 2020 4.0 It takes up too many resources, both on the computer and financially. Pros I like the ease of use of each individual program. The programs work together well and are very self intuitive. Cons They take up way too much space on the computer. Each individual program is limited to certain design features. To create and make svg software, which is the primary image file I use, I have to use two to three of the individual programs. Each takes up a LOT of hard drive space and a lot of RAM to run. This is a major issue for a small home business starting out with a low end model computer. I have to install and uninstall each program each time I need to use it. For a project that I need to make edits on, this can cause one image to take 2-3 days to complete. I found a freeware software that combines all my major image production needs into one program that uses less hard drive and RAM to do everything than one of the Creative Cloud programs. Now, if only I could find a freeware video software, I could cancel the Adobe subscription. Review Source BH Brian H. Escalation Engineer Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "One Stop Shopping for All Things Adobe" October 18, 2022 4.0 Getting graphic design work done is simplified with Adobe Creative Cloud. With a few caveats and a relatively high cost, of course. We are generally satisified with the products and the support that we receive. Pros Creative Cloud is nice because it centralizes all of the Adobe software subscriptions all in the same app. As long as the licensing for each product is in place, it is relatively easy to install and get into each piece of software. The software itself is of excellent quality. Cons It's on the expensive side. I dislike that Adobe absolutely squeezes every product for as much money on a recurring subscription basis as possible. There is also no need to run what feels like a hundred Adobe background processes that Creative Cloud has to put in the background. This is especially concerning if someone installs Creative Cloud on a terminal server, as these processes stack up for each logged in user.

" April 24, 2019 5.0 Pros If you are a creative professional, adobe is still the gold standard in creative tools. Cons It's subscription model is flaming garbage and the second any other artistic software is able to reach near the level of competency, users will flock to it away from the adobe parent company. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Senior Marketing Manager Internet Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Adobe makes it easy to make great designs with the CC" August 15, 2019 5.0 Pros The Creative Cloud from Adobe is fantastic. Subscription models for software can be a bit iffy in my opinion, but with CC it's not really a problem. You get access to the latest version of the software automatically. Cons Nothing so far. Let's see if anything pops up, but I doubt it. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Creative Director Entertainment Used the software for: 2+ years ### "CC is an essential toolset for any designer" October 23, 2018 5.0 Pros CC allows Adobe the iterate fast and deliver bleeding edge creative tools. The cloud-based file libraries and Typekit integration are super helpful additions. I agree with Adobe vision of a post-local-file era. Cons As an individual, a CC subscription is quite pricey albeit essential. Review Source Clint K. Marketing coordinator Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Professional Grade Software at Every Level" February 26, 2021 5.0 I think that overall, having this all bundled really is worth the cost. Adobe is second to none in so many categories, it really makes the most sense overall. I really do enjoy it, and they are great at providing a good end user experience for the customer. Pros Adobe is THE leader in the creative industry. From Photography, to video production, to graphic design, to layout and printing, it really does it all. This software has been everything I need and more, to do my job. As the lead, and often the only person making content, it has been incredibly valuable to have all the software, licensing, and functionality in a one stop shop. Cons Pricing is our biggest issue. I understand why they did away with the Creative Suites and moved to the subscription model, but I do wish they had options for purchasing software in intervals, rather than be completely tied to subscriptions. Review Source David Y. Managing Editor Publishing Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Adobe Creative Cloud - Everything You Need and More" August 4, 2020 4.0 My overall experience with Adobe Creative Cloud is that I don't know how I ever got along without it. It's a great way to access all of your Adobe subscriptions from a single cloud-based location. If you are serious about graphic design, Creative Cloud is essential. Pros Easy to access my Adobe subscriptions from a single hub. Includes everything we need to perform virtually all job functions including video editing, web development, photo manipulation, graphic design and more. We use this on our Windows machines as well as our Macs. As a software-as-a-service model, it can't be beat. Cons I do miss the days when you could have a perpetual license for the software you purchased, but I also realize that Adobe is simply following the models other companies have adopted to help prevent piracy and remain solvent through subscription renewals. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Finance and HR Design Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Designer's best friend" April 2, 2018 5.0 Pros Love having an entire suite of tools at our disposal. Designers we hire and even contractors appreciate that we make this available. Cons The price for businesses is much higher than if purchasing individual licenses. We should be allowed to decide if we want to buy in bulk or not. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Marketing Computer Software Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Great Product for Use Across Marketing Department" June 12, 2019 5.0 Pros There is no comparable product that we've found to the Adobe Suite - great for all of our creative projects from proposals, digital ads, print pieces, conference exhibits, and more. Cons Licensing fees can add up when we have a whole team using it but we do feel its necessary to have Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Game Designer Graphic Design Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Excellent softwared for image editing, video editing & more" August 30, 2019 5.0 We are really happy with Adobe Creative Cloud, we highly recommend it ! Pros There are so many positive things to say about Adobe Creative Cloud ! Photoshop, Adobe Premiere Pro, Adobe Illustrator, In Design,... They are all amazing softwares to work with. From video editing to photo editing and image composition, they have you covered ! Cons I don't think there is anything specific that we disliked about Adobe Creative Cloud. It's all been positive so far. Review Source Michael C. Associate Manager, Instructional Development Consumer Goods Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "A great suite of powerful tools, but an "all-or-nothing" problem" July 20, 2018 4.0 The Adobe CC allows creative professionals and design hobbyists access to the same suite of tools. With all of the programs integrated together, working from illustrator and moving those vectors into after effects, for example, is as easy as ever. Pros All of Adobe's Creative Clouds apps are best in class for their specific domain. They have become the creative standard for most design and media based jobs. All of their apps work together so you can develop a workflow that allows you to work effectively and efficiently. Cons With the Adobe Creative Cloud, you are getting a lot of great software, however sometimes you only need one or two applications. The subscription model may work for users who utilize all of the apps, but for people who only use a few apps, or use them every few months, the subscription model is not cost effective.

Creative Cloud allows us to create Documents , extract technical data from customers, create or modify graphics, Publish Books, Convert and publish information. the software is the best in the industry for what we do. 90% of everything we do is in the Adobe portfolio. We would not be able to work at the level of excellence and efficient without their products. Pros Cost Effective way of getting access to Adobe's software suite. Access to tons of Adobe's main Product line worth thousands of dollars for a low monthly cost Web based Management for licensing and software. Easy configuration and deployment Cons nothing . Adobe has the best software in the industry for Graphics, documents, and web. Review Source MY Michael Y. Multimedia Specialist Broadcast Media Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Essential to my business" November 6, 2020 5.0 I use Adobe CC daily as a media company. I build webpages in dreamweaver and edit videos in premiere. Overall I don’t think I could find a better all-inclusive suite of creative applications. Pros I use Adobe Creative Cloud almost daily for everything from editing photos and videos to short animations. It has never failed me. I feel like every version released, the software gets more robust and feature packed. Cons After major updates I refrain from updating for a bit due to the buggy nature of their updates. Usually after allowing some time for issues to be worked out, I’ll update and it’s perfect! Reason for choosing Adobe Creative Cloud Adobe was much more full featured. It was also easier to work with on a project to project basis. Review Source BM Brent M. Director of Operations Events Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Adobe Creative Cloud is my one-stop" April 21, 2020 5.0 Adobe has been mo go-to for years. I have never had a problem with a program and will continue to be a loyal user. Pros Adobe Creative Cloud is my one-stop for creating graphics and documents for my business. The ability to have all of the Adobe products together in one bundle and have them all work together seamlessly is a time saver and most appreciated. The crossover of skills necessary to maneuver the applications makes switching between programs easy. Cons At first, the inability to purchase the product on CD/DVD was troublesome. Then I realized that always having the most up-to-date product is better than holding a disc. Review Source Josh K. Graphic Designer Retail Used the software for: 2+ years ### "One Manager For All Things Adobe" July 17, 2019 5.0 Pros This is the backbone of the installation of fonts, updates, stock photos, etc. for all Adobe Creative Suite software. I love that it is almost like an assistant in the office that does everything without being told. Cons It is a little bulky ... causes a bit of a delay starting up.
