Chose Adobe InDesign
Adobe InDesign is mostly used in larger companies. Compared to A.P., Adobe InDesign's price is much higher for rather similar functions. On the other hand, the absolute integration and added tools of the adobe software suite are a step above what is offered by the much smaller A…
Adobe InDesign may have a steep learning curve and advanced interface, but the functionality it provides is more advanced that Publisher.
I used Publisher briefly for some brochures and flyers, and it is a good software for simple, quick solutions that do not require a lot of …

We use both in our company. Adobe InDesign for those more carefully considered, important design jobs. Canva for throwaway design jobs like flyers, newsletters, etc.
Adobe InDesign is a much different platform for document creation and publishing compared to Adobe PhotoShop. With Photoshop your goal is to start with or create an image and make all modifications and adjustments within that program. InDesign takes those finished images and …
These mentioned softwares are great but also limiting. I like working on Adobe Illustrator but it's not meant to create page layouts while working on multiple pages.
Adobe InDesign is definitely better structured and perfectly organised. I am a huge supporter of creativity in the communication field, yet I believe in the importance of balance and design. Adobe InDesign proves to be stronger than its competitors because it leaves room for …
While Quark stalled out, InDesign continued to improve its product features year after year. Also, the integration with other industry standard software (Photoshop and Illustrator) is a no-brainer.
Until the development of InDesign, I was a faithful user of QuarkXPress. I knew Quark like the back of my hand. Once I decided to make the change, I realized how robust InDesign was compared to "old faithful." It took a little time to learn the nuances. Now, I can't imagine …
Quark used to be the go-to product for print layout design but I feel they really fell behind in the race against Adobe. The clunky user interface and what I felt were often limited options for adjusting fonts, tracking, kerning, leading etc really made it cumbersome, and …
Quark used to be used much more. Adobe InDesign is now the preferred layout software for publishers. Canva is not as robust and does not have the same functionality.

Chose Adobe InDesign
I have previously used Quark Xpress, but as Adobe InDesign became the leader for professional designers, I transitioned to [Adobe] InDesign. I find Adobe InDesign a lot easier to work with. I have tried Affinity Publisher, but I have not [gotten] very far with trying it out. I …
InDesign is basically the default goto for publication assembly in our industry. Anything else is clunky or has inadequate tools by comparison. It's the industry gold standard.
I have used proprietary composition web applications at other publishers, and I have used Quark (which is less powerful/feature-rich) and LaTeX (which is great for what it does but is not right for all projects). I prefer InDesign for its universality. It can be used on just …
So basically, we just use Word Docs, generated PDFs from them, and combined them all into the reader. We decided to move to InDesign, because we were working with a graphic designer and it made a lot more sense to have an entire rebrand that read and felt differently. InDesign …
Adobe Illustrator and QuarkXPress are great but also very limiting. I personally love illustrator but it's not meant to create page layouts when working on multiple pages and I'm used to working with QuarkXPress because of printers in the past but a majority of the printers …
I'm biased because Adobe InDesign is my favorite, I think that might be somewhat related to the ease of working with text, which I enjoy. I also just enjoy the ease of use of the software compared to other Adobe Creative Suite softwares. Adobe InDesign seems to be the easiest …
We can use AI to make catalog or sellsheets too, but it can not compete with [Adobe] InDesign, AI is useful for single page stuff, but it's a bit heavy while carries more pages and more links. While we are doing some artworks, we prefer to use AI, but once it has few more …
We use Adobe PhotoShop in tandem with Adobe InDesign when processing or manipulating images. It's the gold standard for working with images and getting everything just right. There is no other product on the market I can think of that compares with Adobe PhotoShop and if …
Microsoft products do not match the aesthetic tools that [Adobe] InDesign offers, cannot support the customizable options available for export, and do not produce documents with as high a degree of accessibility. That said, they do have their place in collaboration in a team- …
The other software I listed are not specifically made for layout. Maybe the closest option is Photoshop. I personally find Photoshop more intended for image editing than layout creating. In the architectural field, it is not unheard of for students or practitioners to use …

Chose Adobe InDesign
There aren't even any worthy of mentioning. There is an open-source Scribus, or Microsoft solutions like Word and Publisher. But those shouldn't be used in the same breadth as InDesign. Are you sending a document to a professional press? You use InDesign. I really do wish …
All Adobe products are great for their specific use cases. InDesign is great for us at Legal Books Distributing because we create annual editions of books and InDesign is an AMAZING book creating tool. Once you get the hang of using these tools, your life can become much easier!
Adobe InDesign allows for quicker, simpler, and more powerful manipulation of images and text. Photoshop, granted is not for text editing, has weak text tools. Illustrator, granted is not for pixel-based image editing, can be weak for combining text and images in one file. …
