Likelihood to Recommend I would recommend Adobe CC Express, especially if the colleague were an established Adobe user. The interface is designed so that anyone familiar with Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, or any other Adobe software products, will be familiar. This is a product that competes with Canva, but it's great to have the simplicity of Canva with an interface that feels familiar from day one.
Read full review I'm pretty much going to be mentioning the same thing, but I'll paraphrase. For those looking for an editor that can as well save audio files (mainly .mp3 files), I would suggest EaseUS Video Editor. Make sure you have enough room in your hard drive to download this software program. I'm not saying that it'll take up a lot of room, but it's not a small software program either. With as much video editing and as many video files as I save, you'll definitely need the room. One thing I forgot to state, and I must, is that renaming the files is an added plus. You'll get to saving so many files, and the next thing you know you'll ask yourself questions such as, "What did I save this file for?" Another question that comes to mind is, "Why didn't I have use the automatic timer?" I don't think I had the opportunity to check and see if I could set the timer myself or not. If that's not a feature, it would be an excellent one.
Read full review Pros Out-of-the-box templates save a lot of time and effort for designers and new users. Collaboration to share resources and monitor task status centrally. Great design elements bring a wow factor to digital content. Single design tool for all types of content design. Read full review Saving what I record as an .mp3 audio file. Simple video editing. Simple exporting to the type of file I need and the size. Read full review Cons Adobe Creative Cloud Express's video possibilities could be improved - I'd really like to see more options for animating text. Animoto is a great example of this. But the video is already improving, so perhaps these options are coming! Sometimes images don't download properly from the web app and I have to download using the phone app and then transfer to my desktop for scheduling. It would be cool if there was an approve / feedback option, so you could request feedback from a team member without having to share a link and send a separate email. Read full review Have the capability to have some features online. Automatic saving of back up files in case the program crashes. Longer countdown, 5 instead of 3. Read full review Usability The overall usability of the software was strong. The application, especially relative to other Adobe services like Photoshop that can demand a lot of knowledge and skill, was highly easy to use. At the same time, that also speaks to the somewhat limited amount of customization opportunities that allow content designers to truly create content that is dynamic, engaging, and different than the standard stuff that floods our vision every day.
Read full review Support Rating Because adobe is so widespread the community support is amazing. I have never actually used adobe support short of their website, but I go to youtube a lot to get my questions answered. You can google any problem you have and not have any issues finding an answer. In my opinion, community support is much more meaningful and helpful than support directly from the company
Read full review Alternatives Considered I used
Canva for a long time, but since we already had the Adobe Creative Suite and Adobe Creative Cloud Express was included, I went ahead and started using Adobe Creative Cloud Express, as it was more cost-effective. Unfortunately, Adobe Creative Cloud Express doesn't offer any content calendar and scheduling, so it was a difficult choice.
Read full review As I've previously stated, EaseuS Video Editor can also be used to as an alternative for Zoom. The only thing is that not everyone has this software program because Zoom presented itself more as the video recording software of choice. Zoom was as well the one the majority of us in the public was more aware of. One main advantage EaseUs Video Editor has over Zoom is, and I'll state this repeatedly, editing. I can with any videos with EaseUs edit more with easily and effortlessly. Overall, I've had to after converting any Zoom meetings edit and make them a better quality with EaseUS.
Read full review Contract Terms and Pricing Model Adobe Creative Cloud Express is included with an Adobe Creative Cloud account. Our company has a corporate team membership so it is nice to have a professional and powerful tool that anyone on our team can use for free. The pricing structure of giving the tool away for free will be fundamental to users utilizing the tool. Similar tools, such as Canva, cost significantly more but do not offer the same features
Read full review Professional Services The professional services for Adobe Creative Cloud Express is top notch and should be highly commended. I am thoroughly impressed with how far Adobe has come. In the past, I had several issues with how something were handled, but in the past few years things have been better than ever and they get no complaints from me
Read full review Return on Investment I started with the free version, but I soon found that I was unable to save my custom templates. With the paid plan, The number of templates and art work are greatly increased. Using this subscription was a timesaver, thus saving in creative time.
