Overall Satisfaction with Adobe Photoshop

I use Adobe Photoshop to create graphics for our social media marketing campaigns, mostly Instagram, Facebook, Pinterest, and Twitter. It is very fast, convenient, and easy to use, and it helps make the right sizes for various different platforms that we need. I've been using Photoshop since it was invented!
  • Layered graphics
  • Templates
  • High resolution graphics
  • Photo editing
  • Web design could use some work
  • Better hotkey information
  • More free add ons
  • Catchy graphics which gain us social media followers.
  • Fast template creation which saves time in the long run.
  • High resolution graphics for trade shows which lets us not outsource graphic design companies.
Some people like Adobe illustrator, or other design programs, but I find them to be more difficult to use than Photoshop. Photoshop is kind of like an art form, if you learn the hotkeys and how to manipulate graphics on a palette, you can create things very quickly and high-quality while saving money by not hiring an outside team.
I've been using Photoshop since 1995 while I was in college. I've become an expert in using the program mostly because it is so easy to use, and there are tons of tutorials online to learn. I highly recommend this program and I will most likely use it for the rest of my life!
I recommend Adobe Photoshop to everyone I know. Especially people who work in graphic design, or marketing departments, you really have to learn the basics of Adobe Photoshop in order to run the marketing department, because you have to constantly create relevant graphics based on trending topics, even Internet meme's which are something that are very popular nowadays.
