Chose Adobe Dreamweaver
I used FrontPage many years ago and believe it is now obsolete. It was never a good program, but Dreamweaver is superior and has always been my go-to choice.
Chose Adobe Dreamweaver
While sublime text and notepad ++ are great, Adobe Dreamweaver is far better for web development in my opinion. The ability to just FTP your files up to your webserver without having to use another FTP software is a game changer. It really is a wonderful feature.
Chose Adobe Dreamweaver
Google Web Designer is what I used to use but Dreamweaver was better. Google did not offer the functionality I needed. Google was also messy and had limited design options. Google seems better for creating animated banners or animated photos, but not for designing a full …
Chose Adobe Dreamweaver
No I haven't used any other software. I am using Dreamweaver from many years. Dreamweaver is efficient, consistent, customizable as per need, live rendering, and easy to upload using inbuilt FTP feature. Adobe Dreamweaver is very good for designing and coding. Dreamweaver is a …
Chose Adobe Dreamweaver
Adobe Dreamweaver is probably the best software for students because you don't need to know HTML, or CSS to use it. However, once you learn it, it fits like a glove. The interface is comfortable, the options, the ability to edit webpages live, and the error tracking ability are …

One of the issues I've had is our company newsletter. I use MailChimp to send it but the template I chose does not work well in MailChimp. My work-around is that I host the template in Adobe Dreamweaver and then code the new newsletter content in the tool. This allows me to choose the "Code Your Own" option in MailChimp. I simply paste in the code, make any tweaks, and then I can send it to my subscribers.

Cons
  • Space - you have to download the software on your hard drive
  • Cost - It's a monthly subscription and not open source
