Overall Satisfaction with Adobe PhotoShop

As a video editor and family photographer, I use Photoshop almost every day in my business. Most of the time, it is removing logos' backgrounds, swapping kids' heads in family photos, or general photo fixes. The new AI has been super helpful in taking out the tedious work of editing.

Pros

  • Selecting certain people or objects within a photo.
  • Removing background colors.
  • Changing the color of a logo.

Cons

  • The content aware remove tool is better on Lightroom than photoshop.
  • Layers can get a bit confusing.
  • Professional looking edits.
  • Makes me look like a better photographer.
  • Better website design with logos in uniform color.
I find it to be a little confusing sometimes, but I know it can do more than I even know! Anytime I have a photo where I need to replace someone's head, there is no better software for the job. I use it every day and want to learn more about what it can do.
Canva is easier to use, but Photoshop is meant for professionals, so it can do so much more if you know how to use it.

Yes

Did Adobe PhotoShop live up to sales and marketing promises?

Yes

Did implementation of Adobe PhotoShop go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Adobe PhotoShop again?

Yes

It is a powerhouse and can do almost anything photo-related. If I were recommending, I would tell them they almost need to do Tutorials first because there is a lot it can do, but it's not always intuitive. If you're improving an old photo, there is nothing better than Photoshop.
