Considered Both Products	Adobe Bridge Mark Laurie Owner / photographer / artist / speaker / writer Chose Adobe Bridge we did our searching years ago, nothing to match it too. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Adobe Bridge Adobe Bridge is a useful tool within the CC environment but doesn't have much standalone value that I use it for outside of organization of assets and the preliminary asset selection process. Incentivized Helpful? BD Bill Duncan Marketing & Communications Advisor Chose Adobe Bridge Dash is purely a DAM system which can't do nearly as much as Bridge. Incentivized Helpful? SJ Steve Janiak Senior Director of Marketing and Brand Strategy Chose Adobe Bridge Bridge is just easier and quicker. It suits our purposes more. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Adobe Bridge I mean, it's the same company so it's really interchangeable. It's like an assistance tool. Incentivized Helpful? IS Isabel Sam Owner Chose Adobe Bridge Okay so I've actually tried to use Lightroom. Photoshop is its own beast and doesn't have the catalog that Bridge of Lightroom has. Lightroom is not as powerful with being able to check between images, finding files, etc. I wanted to love it, but Bridge won hands down with all … Incentivized Helpful?

User Testimonials

Likelihood to Recommend	I love to use it when I need to rename a group of photos from one of my photographers because they named the files incorrectly. My team seems happy to use it from now and then in combination with InDesign and Photoshop Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	No answers on this topic
Pros	selecting files then process them in photoshop use as a sales tool for clients viewing Finding files, it is our go to directory easy to go to servers and acroos the companies computers. Incentivized Mark Laurie Owner / photographer / artist / speaker / writer Read full review	No answers on this topic
Cons	It took me a while to figure out how to get Bridge to work faster. Apparently, you need it to cache your entire library and once that library is cached then it can refer to those files quickly. It takes up more space on your computer and you should consider buying a computer with plenty of space and a great graphics card to help this program work at its best. I wish it would recognize that firewall software and virus protection software isn't its enemy and work with them running all the time. This error doesn't always occur for me, but when it does, I am annoyed. Incentivized IS Isabel Sam Owner Read full review	No answers on this topic
Usability	Adobe Bridge is useful as a jumping off point for file organization within the CC environment. It is a little slow and clunky at times but is useful for preliminary photography selection development including contact sheets, file renaming, and the overall selection process.

Alternatives Considered	Okay so I've actually tried to use Lightroom. Photoshop is its own beast and doesn't have the catalog that Bridge of Lightroom has. Lightroom is not as powerful with being able to check between images, finding files, etc. I wanted to love it, but Bridge won hands down with all the time it has saved me so I can get back to my children instead of complaining that it takes me so much time to narrow down images Incentivized IS Isabel Sam Owner Read full review	No answers on this topic
Return on Investment	Convenience and ease in seeing all images at a glance and being able to select chosen images for use in Photoshop and XD Saved us time through the batch rename functionality Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	No answers on this topic
