Overall Satisfaction with Adobe Firefly
Adobe Firefly is great for content creation for our Digital Signage screens around campus. The varied options when it comes to style and feel are second to none. I highly recommend this product ahead of other AI Image generation programs. You can couple this with any AI text generator to create text to image prompts for whatever you need. Our latest campaign was focussed on Cyber Security Awareness Month, Firefly did a great job at producing engaging content to very much elevate the points we were trying to get across.
Pros
- Varied options when producing the final product
- Amazing selection of styles
- Very fast image production
Cons
- Using referenced images, it usually creates the exact same composition. It would be nice to take that referenced image and produce something that uses it as an influence, but not recreate it.
- The ability to upload a file of yourself, or another person and create content based on their features
- Created stakeholder engagement
- Afforded us less subscription costs to other programs
- Increased knowledge within the organisation
- ChatGPT and Google Gemini
Adobe Firefly couples well with the other Adobe Apps we use for our organisation, so the overall subscription includes other products we can leverage. We find that FireFly produces the same, if not better results that it's AI competitors such as ChatGPT and Google Gemini.
Firefly overall is a much more cost effective option for us.

Using Adobe Firefly
800 - The majority of users are teaching and learning staff, as well as students across multiple year levels, using Firefly primarily for creative, visual, and communication-based projects. This includes subjects such as Visual Arts, Media, Design & Technology, and English, where students generate images and design assets to support classwork and assessment tasks. Additionally, ICT and Communications teams use Firefly for internal projects such as promotional materials, digital signage, and online learning resources.
Support for Adobe Firefly primarily requires staff with ICT administration and digital learning experience. Our team consists of the ICT Client Services Manager and two Infrastructure Technicians who manage user access, integration with Adobe accounts, and device compatibility across our environment. In addition to technical administration, it’s valuable to have staff who understand digital creativity tools and can provide basic guidance or troubleshooting for teachers and students using Firefly within Adobe Express or Creative Cloud. A mix of technical proficiency, user support skills, and an understanding of classroom needs ensures smooth adoption and use.
