I would definitely recommend Adobe Express to students in my university as they have the free access to it as our university provides the free Creative Cloud Suit in which they have all the premium Adobe product access for free
In my experience, I have used PicsArt in lots of projects which helped me to complete the projects on time with satisfactory results. Mostly I use the Android app which is super easy to use. I have created multiple templates for my business. But I think it should remove the watermark on video editing also in the free version. It helped us to create unique pre-designed templates with step by step process. Apart from that, I have never faced any issues with this tool.
Basic Photo Editing - more robust than your basic iPhone photo editing tools, but much simpler (yet still powerful) and user-friendly than Adobe Photoshop and Lightroom.
Filters - a large variety of simple and complex photo filters with the ability to adjust the strength. A nice blend of filters can really enhance a photo without making it look heavily filtered.
User friendly - all across the board, this app is super easy to use and really powerful too. I can't imagine editing a photo on my phone without it.
There are a lot of features available to only paying subscribers, but all those features still appear for the nonpaying user, marked by the crown icon. Particularly with filters and stickers, it can be annoying to scroll through the majority of locked options to find the handful that is free. A filter option would be nice.
It would be nice to have access to previous projects where you could still go back and undo edits you've made. The draft feature seems to only be good for one project at a time.
Layers would be nice. That way when you use a sticker or add a photo on top and go on to make more edits, you could still move them around instead of just having to undo everything and re-add the stick or additional photo.
I give it a 10 because Adobe Express has become an essential part of our daily workflow. It allows us to design faster, stay on brand, and produce high-quality content without needing multiple tools. The AI features, templates, and easy collaboration make it a platform we rely on for client work, training, and internal operations.
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.
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
I think Express is a great tool for quick edits or creation. As someone who works in the more robust platforms, I do not always enjoy going into Express because of the more limited features.
I used Lucidchart to develop architect-level integration flow diagrams to visualise integration flow. But Picsart has a user-friendly UI to develop and edit HQ pictures as per business requirements but some options are an enterprise where we need to pay and purchase those features and filters to use them while editing images.
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
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
