  • The average time to create a single icon has been reduced by 10 minutes!
  • Thanks to the ability to batch multiple sized images, the 40 minute work time was reduced to 10 minutes.
  • Advanced cropping functions cut the cropping time of collage images in half.

  • Straight to the point: I wouldn't be able to do what I do without it. Too many design needs require what Adobe Illustrator CC offers.
  • I could use InDesign, but my time spent on many projects would have to increase by 150% in order to complete said projects.

  • This is a bit touchy for me. ROI was better when you could purchase Adobe products. That is harder to calculate with their subscription price structure now. With this new model, ROI goes down if you don't use the tool EVERY DAY. There are times when it isn't necessary for a project I am working on... So that is a negative.
  • On the flip side, with the subscription model, I always have the "latest, greatest and most updatest" version of the software - so that is a positive.
  • After getting familiar with the updated interface and working with it for a bit, this is a powerhouse design tool! That is definitely a positive.

  • Adobe Illustrator is a powerful tool that has the ability to increase your ROI by leaps and bounds. The smart automation tools and intuitive interface makes business process management easy. Having an automated process saves time, money and resources without compromising on quality.
  • I am a graphic designer, and I use Adobe Illustrator CC in my work; It's made my job easier, faster and better. I have to say that it has been a good investment for me so far.

  • One of the positive return on investments is that I have more time to do other tasks.
  • One of the negative impacts as it takes a long time to train someone new to use the software.
  • The cost of the Adobe Suite is a little higher than other software's but I find that it provides a higher return on investment than cheaper software.

  • There is the initial cost to consider. If you are just wanting to experiment or learn vector graphics, it may not be the best option. But if any kind of graphic or design work needs to be done, this is an essential tool
  • When the tool is known, it can drastically reduce the time spent creating assets. It is powerful and able to implement any vision you have, while at the same time being able to export to any end format you need.
  • Adobe Illustrator is a tool that can lend a professional and polished look to any product you produce.

  • Streamlined our process. It would make our design lives so much more clunky and frustrating if we didn't have all the tools and abilities that Adobe Illustrator CC offers.
  • Time-saving. As said earlier, the ability to edit PDF files has saved us hours upon hours of time, as we otherwise would have had to create such files from scratch.
  • Limitless Design Possibilities. Often we come up with some interesting and hard-to describe ideas for designs, which can be implemented with all of the options and tools available in Adobe Illustrator. It gives us the freedom to design whatever we think of.

  • Although I am paid and it's part of my position, Adobe Illustrator CC has saved us thousands of dollars a year because we can create most of what we need in house and don't have to hire other people.
  • Because we use it in house, I can create something the second I need it. If we outsourced the work, we'd have to wait hours, if not days, to receive what we need.
  • Again, the ability to create so many types of graphics saves us from having to spend money on other specialty applications.
