The price point of an Adobe Creative Cloud subscription is perhaps the only downfall. I think lowering the subscription cost would encourage more people to use it! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Adobe After Effects?
Adobe After Effects is the best animation tool I've ever used. It integrates wonderfully with the whole Adobe Creative Cloud set of applications and is my go-to application for all of my animation - and some video editing - projects! It is robust, but can also be simple! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
What do you dislike about Adobe After Effects?
After Effects has a bit of a learning curve, but that's not a deterrent. Adobe has a lot of tutorials to make their programs more user friendly. There's truly not much to dislike about Adobe After Effects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Adobe Creative Cloud?
I most like Adobe Illustrator for its recent improvements but feels the collective whole is overpriced. Photoshop used to be a favorite but now feels clunky and less user friendly. Still not sure what Adobe is trying to accomplish with two version of Lightrooom -- feels like they've divided product teams across two products that each feel not well supported lately. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
What do you dislike about Adobe Creative Cloud?
The price keeps going up and each year I feel like I'm getting less value from it. I'd prefer either more specific, more affordable bundles or more affordable a la carte options. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Adobe Creative Cloud?
I love the seemless integration between apps in the Creative Cloud suite. Photoshop and Illustrator are fantastic for creating and editing assets, while InDesign works wonderfully to bring everything together. Premiere Pro is intuitive and After Effects can help take motion graphics to the next level. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
