Overall Satisfaction with Adobe Firefly

I have used Adobe Firefly to quickly create graphics that aren't incredibly important for things like internal company newsletters, presentation backgrounds, or email graphics. Adobe Firefly might not be the best program for graphics that are centrally important because there may be odd details that don't make sense in the images if they are scrutinized too closely.

Pros

  • Is quick
  • Is intuitive
  • Is fairly responsive

Cons

  • It can be difficult to get Firefly to make the changes you wish for it to make to an image
  • Sometimes Firefly is too influenced by a particular idea that is more common to the prompt you are giving but becomes a roadblock. (For example, if you ask for it to create an image of a beagle, it will always be a white beagle. You will not be able to get it to create other colors because a white beagle is most common.)
  • Adobe Firefly can save time and money if you use it to create images instead of sourcing and purchasing stock images, depending on how much time you spend creating an image within Firefly.
There is still a way to go with image generation AI because of details that are strange and incorrect, but generally, it is a good tool to have in your arsenal for non-critical needs.
Adobe Firefly biggest difference from Adobe Illustrator's generative image tools is not being vector-based like Illustrator. Firefly is a little more pared down in it's interface and a little easier to pick up use, but is also therefore more limited in user settings. Overall, they are pretty well matched, but you need to choose your program based on if you need a vector-based output.

Do you think Adobe Firefly delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with Adobe Firefly's feature set?

Yes

Did Adobe Firefly live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of Adobe Firefly go as expected?

I wasn't involved with the implementation phase

Would you buy Adobe Firefly again?

Yes

I like to use Adobe Firefly to create background images or filler images, things that could have been stock images. If it is crucial information to your message or is meant to represent a specific thing that you are claiming as your work/real-life representation, I would not use Adobe Firefly as you can compromise your integrity.
