Overall Satisfaction with Adobe Firefly

Use it for generally cleaning up images and creating elements to add to images in order to create a more lively overall image, or a less cluttered image to support the narrative needed.
It’s not currently a huge scope of issues that I use it for, but it is very handy and definitely reduces time required.

Pros

  • Generate hero images
  • create icons / adjust icons
  • generative fill for images
  • removing items from images

Cons

  • Doesn’t feel as good as something like dall-e yet.
  • photorealism isn’t quite there yet
  • The payment method
  • It’s probably freed up about 5-10 percent more time for me to focus on complexities of my job
It’s fairly easy to get it up and going and make something that is pretty close to what you are after. Adjusting afterwards is relatively simple as well, and really makes it easy to focus on other areas.
In general I think they are comparable in some ways. I think the image generation is still a bit more sophisticated for dall-e but the gap continues to be closed. Photorealism seems to be the one area I notice the biggest gap but in my line of work it’s not that big of a concern.

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

We can’t use it strictly for generating images within our business area, and it doesn’t help me create designs. It is great for general asset creation and manipulation which can take the strain out of areas of my job that aren’t critical to nail down at the conceptual stage. It really can help streamline and let me focus on the more complex areas of my job.
