Overall Satisfaction with Adobe Illustrator CC

I'm a Senior Art Director and Graphic Designer and I use Adobe Illustrator CC regularly for making vector artwork for clients and various projects. I use Adobe Illustrator CC for logo concepting and production and rely on the program for its vector output.

Pros

  • Creating vector artwork
  • Illustration
  • Artboards for creating multiple visuals
  • Logo creation

Cons

  • It would be great if Adobe Illustrator CC had an easier way to export compressed PDFs
  • More pen tool ease of use
  • Adobe Illustrator CC helps us design great materials for clients
  • We can easily build out projects in Adobe Illustrator CC
Adobe Illustrator hasn't changed dramatically in it's usability over the years. If you are familiar with the Creative Suite at all, you would easily be able to navigate the tools and interfaces in Illustrator. The toolbar is easy to find and there are helpful tips and tricks that the Creative Suite provides users as well.
Adobe Illustrator CC is the best program to use for creating vector illustrations and graphics, whereas Photoshop is best for pixel-based digital pieces. Indesign is best for printed pieces and Adobe Illustrator CC is a great collaborator tool to use for Indesign projects. The artboard tool in Illustrator helps it stand out against the other programs with ease of organization and usage.

Adobe Illustrator CC is the best program out there for producing high-quality vector artwork. I love using it for logo design and creation. For print pieces it can also be very helpful, although I prefer making the graphics for a printed piece in Adobe Illustrator CC and then placing them in an Indesign document for final output. Adobe Illustrator CC can also create artwork that will be used for digital purposes, although I usually use Photoshop for those kinds of projects.
