Overall Satisfaction with Adobe Photoshop

I use Adobe Photoshop to edit graphics for my company, though it isn't my primary job. Multiple people in the marketing team have their own accounts, and use it for things like editing graphics for presentations or emails. As a marketing manager, the software is constantly handy -- it allows me to do everything from create mockups for my projects to tweak headshots of colleagues and customers. I love the flexibility of the tool.
  • Photo editing - It's the best tool in the market.
  • Layouts - Though not primarily built for this, it works well enough for the basics.
  • It requires a lot of memory for my laptop. I need to close other applications when I use it!
  • I'm not too fond that it's all cloud-based now.
  • Not sure about ROI, but it certainly does what it's supposed to.
I have prior experience with Photoshop, and it's a lot more flexible than Canva.

If you have an eye for graphic design and are willing to learn how to use it, it's the right tool for you. However, if you consider yourself inept, forget about it and select an easier tool like Canva. You kind of need to be willing to open your mind and study what good images/design really is.
