Overall Satisfaction with Adobe Acrobat
We create both internal and external marketing deliverables. The internal things are more presentations both internally for associates or our HR team using it for college recruiting or internal, like associate engagement. We also create things externally for our clients that look like it came from them, but is then given to their employee pool. So we use it for a little bit of everything. I manage a team of graphic designers and proofreaders, so creating all of those deliverables across the Adobe stack, having Adobe Acrobat as a viewer or a way to also share work or be collaborative with work. That's how we currently use it. I've used it in very similar use cases before, but that's how my team uses Adobe Acrobat.
- The integration across Adobe products and the Creative Cloud. My graphic designers basically live in Adobe InDesign all day long, and they're churning out work all day long in that so not only am I assisting and looking at that through InDesign, we're also again using Adobe Workfront. I basically live and breathe within Workfront. Then having Adobe Acrobat to share our work with stakeholders on projects, whether it's across our team or across the globe, because we are a global company. We do kind of reach across the water to help their teams. So again, having Adobe Acrobat to look at our work and share our work and collaborate on our work, that's a huge pro for us. It's all real-time, so we might be asleep while an associate across seas is working on something. We can view it, look at it, use it, and share it in real-time. So that's a huge pro for us.
- We all use it for so many different things. What I use it for, I don't really have a whole lot of complaints. I guess the only issue, and it's just like this with other Adobe products, too, there are so many ways to skin the cat that sometimes it can be hard to create standard processes. That feels like more of an internal kind of problem and not an Adobe or an Adobe Acrobat problem.
- The only negative impact I feel like it's more internal. We kind of have an issue with locking down work so it can't be edited elsewhere. But again, that's just kind of more of an internal conversation that we need to have with our associates.
- My team is responsible for creating roughly a hundred projects a day during our normal time and during our peak time, we're creating 350 to 400 projects a day. So being able to use Adobe Acrobat to share and collaborate on that amount of work and in the amount that we turn the work around, because our turnarounds are typically 24 hours to the end of the next business day, regardless of where we are on the globe. So the consistency of the platform and the availability of the platform for our team to use is fantastic. It allows us to look like we're working 24/7 when we're not.
Being in the insurance industry, it is a very regulated, highly regulated industry. Knowing that Adobe or Adobe Acrobat is as stringent with their security, privacy, and compliance facets, it feels good knowing that someone else is as stringent, especially on those pieces your industry or your company is. It goes back to that gold standard. I think that's why so many of us use it and like using it because we are as regulated as we are, it's nice to kind of feel like someone has your back.
