Adobe After Effects Reviews and Ratings

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I use Adobe After Effects to create motion graphics that combine photos with vector images for use on our company social media page. Adobe After Effects gives me the full range of capabilities to create fully personalized videos that are 100% customizable whereas other popular products do not deliver the same level of ability and customization.

Likelihood to Recommend

I would recommend Adobe After Effects to a colleague above all other comparable software that I have used, however, with the caveat that it can be time-consuming to learn to use and can be frustrating if you are not familiar with the software. Difficulty aside, once you begin to understand how to use Adobe After Effects, it is the only software for the job.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Adobe After Effects for Marketing and training videos. Mostly we use it to animate text, objects, infographics, and other various elements to support our marketing and other company department's needs. The videos we create are usually client facing, but sometimes for internal use to better visualize a process for training.

Likelihood to Recommend

Adobe After Effects is an in-depth tool to help support any video editor/motion designer. I think the sheer amount of features available in the software really allows for endless creativity but that can make it a little daunting to learn as well. It's a great tool to animate business logos and add dynamics to marketing and social videos as well as product, demo, and training videos.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

AE is great for animated titles, animations, and video compositing.

Likelihood to Recommend

AE is a powerhouse for anything beyond basic editing. As far as editing, that's much better suited for Premiere, and thankfully you can just copy and paste from Premiere to AE to further refine your piece.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Adobe After Effects to create complex and simple animations for the eLearning Platform called Digital Learning. Adobe After Effects helps us achieve the highest standards of quality as well as efficiency in creating that content easily. It helps create engaging content faster and smarter. Adobe After Effects is the best out there. We have absolute control on what we can do.

Likelihood to Recommend

Adobe After Effects is well-suited for anyone who is looking to create Motion Graphics and training animations, such as Mouse Movements and Application walkthroughs, efficiently and easily. Adobe After Effects can look complicated to start with, but once you get the hang of it, there is no better tool out there in this field.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

After Effects is mostly used to come up with quick motion design elements we might use on the site, emails, or even some videos. Most of it is quite small, just simple things that already enhanced what we have created, transitions between certain products, or presentations to internal members. Though occasionally we do create longer works when marketing requires it, usually being put to use on the homepage or in social media posts.

Likelihood to Recommend

Motion design, by far the best as I stated before. Creating and animating simple elements that while not needed enhanced the experience, to creating more complex designs and animations that are used in presentations or social media posting. Whether it would be internally to team members or more external posting that are part of a bigger marketing plan.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Adobe After Effects helps with organization through visual consistency, project structure, asset management, efficient editing, animation presets, collaboration, version control, export options, reusable templates, and workflow integration in post-production.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

To make demo reels

Likelihood to Recommend

If someone need to put together some video for a demo, or wants to do good animation for a digital product I will recommend.

If it's for a prototype animation for digital product I won't.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

After Effects gives more freedom to create motion graphics, editing videos, creating small big animations. Adobe after effects has multiple plugins that help explore more and enhance your creativity. It's video editing tools are very user friendly. Importing and exporting images and videos with far better quality gives encouragement to design more.

Likelihood to Recommend

Once we were working on a project where we needed to create small animations videos as well as .gif. non of the other tools were usefull when it comes to create gifs and image animations. It took us very less time to create animations and we were able to deliver the project in time.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I use Adobe After Effects for Motion Graphics and Animation. I use Adobe After Effects every day and it addresses the majority of my motion design problems or needs. I use it in conjunction with Photoshop and Illustrator so nearly all my needs.

Likelihood to Recommend

I would always recommend Adobe After Effects as it covers many of the basics for Motion Design and integrates well with anyone whos already used Photoshop, Illustrator, or Premiere.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Adobe After Effects to design and finish and enhance our videos with effects, intros, and outros. The amount of control we get in editing is not available in any other application in the market currently. The tools that Adobe After Effects offers also do the job very well and help our organization reduce expenditures by not having to separately purchase those tools.

Likelihood to Recommend

Adobe After Effects is very well suited for detailed designs and editing where you can put in some time and effort and can reap the rewards of your efforts by having more than average output results. It does require a learning curve and is time-consuming to work on a project. Therefore, it is not very well suited for organizations that require doing multiple projects quickly and with some automation.
