Overall Satisfaction with Adobe InDesign

We use InDesign in our technology classes. They use it to create posters and other fliers, with the purpose of learning the program. Our public relations team also uses it for creating the posters and fliers that we put around the school for events that are coming up within the school.
  • InDesign is really fast and can help boost production.
  • It is an awesome program for creating posters or fliers.
  • It does not work well with opening PDFs.
  • It can be a little difficult to get used to for first-timers to the program.
  • The posters and fliers created have helped more people attend our events.
  • One downside was having to teach people how to use it.
When I first starting designing for the purpose of creating fliers and brochures I would use Photoshop and it would take me a while. Then after learning about InDesign I switched to that and the process became much faster and I enjoyed it a lot more. It took a little bit to get used to InDesign but it was definitely worth it.
I gave it an 8 because overall I have had a lot of good experiences. The only reason I didn't give it a 10 was because it does take a little bit of time on hold to be able to talk to someone since it is a huge company.

One place where we have found that InDesign has been really useful is with our public relations team at our school. When we have upcoming events or anything going on at the school they will use InDesign to create the posters and flyers for those events. We've also tried it in a technology class and our students have loved it and the ability it gives them to create something.
