Adobe PhotoShop

Adobe Photoshop is perfect when you need to customize graphics for any purpose and require an extremely professional result. So many websites and marketing materials look like they were built by amateurs simply because the photos weren't cropped and re-sized to properly fit the space, and the colors are "close" but not uniform where needed. Photoshop makes it easy to work with photos and all graphic images.

Photoshop is well suited for editing photos, resizing, cutting and pasting different elements of a photo onto another. It would be less appropriate for writing text or illustrations.

Photoshop is excellent for working with graphics and designing for the web. I would not recommend as a page layout program or for designing things for print.

Manual re-touch is super easy. Copy channel, color correcting is also super easy. Masking is really nice. Map extractor SHOULD be there soon. But features for the gaming industry are not there.

Definitely the most diverse tool for photo editing. I would recommend to anyone that edits photos or prepares photos for the web regularly. I wouldn't suggest Photoshop for anyone who doesn't want to dig into all the specific tools. It can be overwhelming for beginners or those without technical abilities.

If you're looking for a tool to create advanced graphics, superbly edit your photos, manipulate them, or create a mere ad poster it is a good tool for you. But only if you are pretty expert in using computers. If you're just starting out it will take you some time to adjust to the overwhelming interface.

It is great for any time that you have photos that need to be edited. Photoshop allows you to basically do anything to a picture which is really nice. It has worked fine in a classroom setting for teaching students how to use Photoshop, but since it is a very complex program, it has taken a while for our students to really understand it.

Adobe Photoshop CC is very well suited for companies of all sizes (even single professionals) looking to create artistic content, almost dare to say its not just a good tool to have but a must-have if you want to take your creativity to the next level as long as you have the talent to work with it of course.

Adobe Photoshop is great for creating unique designs that incorporate a number of useful things like photo editing / retouching, text and typography layout and colour usage. It is an incredibly powerful and intuitive program to use. As a designer within the company, I often times build intricate templates in Photoshop that are then passed down to other members of the team (who are less fluent with design and Photoshop in general) and they are still able to make the necessary edits and updates in order to finalize graphics (for when I am not in office - evenings and weekends).

Adobe is perfect for any situation that includes images, photos, or graphics of any sort. I primarily use Photoshop right now to create consistently branded images for thumbnails and music playlist covers. That includes both images of people that need editing and graphics with words that have to have a consistent format.

Scenarios where we love using PhotoShop:

• Editing a background
• Editing someone or something out of a background
• Removing or adding items to a photo
• Creating visual effects on or with a photo (making a photo look old or an old photo to look new)
• Creating print-ready, high-res high-end graphics
• Creating gradients
• Creating multi-layer effects on photos

Scenarios where you can use PhotoShop, but other items in Adobe line can facilitate better:

• Creating illustrations, vectors, or iconic shapes: Adobe Illustrator is better for this

• Creating multi-page brochures or books: Adobe InDesign is better for this
• Creating batch images in different renders and sizes for multi-platform media: Adobe Spark is good for this.

This is NOT an easy product to work with. You must have experience and training in order to produce the desired effects (Not for beginners).

The best use of Adobe Photoshop is related to image processing, including mockups, creating textures and general adjustments to photos (deleting details, correcting skin or cleaning the scenario). It is less appropriate to use Photoshop when creating infographics, adjusting data graphs, mind maps, or to create graphic materials that require vector illustration and/or diagrams.

Photoshop is the only tool I use for retouching. It can be used for simple tasks as well as complex tasks. I wish there was a way to have it be linked to Sketch or other UX applications.

I absolutely love Photoshop and it would be impossible to do my job without this tool. I believe it's the most complete tool available out there. It has everything I need and as a graphic designer, I always need to create graphics and edit images for the agencies I work with.

Photoshop allows users to manipulate imagery, composite images, retouch, etc. Photoshop is also great for creating mock-ups of branded material, for example -- creating a mock-up of a t-shirt design by placing the design on the tee prior to going to print. This is just a small example of how Photoshop can save you money in the long term by providing detailed mock-ups prior to sending something to print.

Well suited for creating images that are ultimately to be raster (photographic, with "grain") images, versus Adobe Illustrator CC, which is more suited to the creation of vector (resolution-independent) images. You need BOTH applications, really! Adobe Photoshop CC is well suited for creating very large images, such as for trade-show banners, without stalling or "skipping."

It's great for graphic design and photo editing. Definitely good for any web design and graphic design business. I think Illustrator is better for creating print designs.

Adobe Photoshop is the standard in photo editing, period. You can use other software and it will almost be as good but likely to be missing something or not work as well. Much like Microsoft's Office suite has become the standard, Adobe Photoshop is that for photos and the like. We have tried alternatives but nothing was as intuitive to use like this.

Photoshop is perfect for the person who needs to edit photos. This program is not meant to design, that's what you use InDesign or Illustrator for. So if you need to edit photos, anything can really be done with this program. They have really updated this program throughout the years to be able to do a LOT!

Photoshop can do nearly anything with an image. Some of the functions are easy to use, such as their filters. If you want to convert an image to appear like a painting, there is a filter that can do that for you. If you want to make a person's eyes bigger, there is a simple function for that, which is amazing. Photoshop can perform a plethora of tasks depending on the person's needs and knowledge.

In any situation where you are creating products utilizing graphics and photos, you must have Photoshop. It's really not up for debate. If you're really working on this type of media, you have to have it like you have to have a powerful computer.

Photoshop does great when it comes to stitching panoramas, editing large batches of photos and converting images. Cropping is also made easy when transforming images or straightening them out in the crop. The images can be converted into any number of other formats for use on the web or in publications and color can also be fine-tuned.

It is well suited for large format graphics where resolution is very important. It is best used by professionals who know how to really use the program. It is great for color manipulation or removing unwanted items. Separating elements from their background is made easy through the tools.

It is greater for photo manipulation or asset creation but it isn't possible to create vector imagery, which is why there is Adobe Illustrator.
