Adobe After Effects Reviews & Product Details - Page 5

Once you learn to think in the "AE way" it will stay with you forever.

The integration with Dynamic Link is wonderful, among the connection with other programs as Photoshop or Premiere Pro.

Scripting can take you to a whole new level of performance and enrichment of your projects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

If your machine doesn't meet the hardware needs, experience can be very dissappointing.

Audio integration still basic and chunky, it should be a little bit more practical.

It's a easy to start app, but difficult to master. Doing some things if you don't know the "right way to do it" can be very difficult and tedious. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like in after effectAfter Effects is incredibly versatile, allowing users to create a wide range of visual effects, motion graphics, animations, and even simple video editing tasks.s, it is very simple Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

After Effects can be quite demanding on computer resources, especially when working with complex projects or high-resolution footage. This might lead to lagging or crashes, particularly on older or less powerful machines. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Before Adobe had the Creative Cloud, I was paying upwards of $600 for each new version of the Creative Suite software. This could happen annually, and sometimes even more frequently than that, and in many cases the only real improvements were to one or two of the applications. With the Creative Cloud, I'm still paying about the same amount every year, but the monthly cost is much more budget-friendly than taking the huge hit all at once. The regular bug fixes and version updates are easy to install and typically just happen in the background so I never have to worry about it. Adobe has also improved the way in which the applications interact with each other, making it a breeze to design something in Illustrator and then put it into InDesign or Premiere, and if I need to make changes later in Illustrator the assets just update automatically wherever I used them.

Many of the new 3D Tools are an additional expense on top of the Creative Cloud, which has discouraged me from trying them because I don't have the budget for software that I may or may not use. If Adobe slightly increased the monthly cost of the Creative Cloud by $5 or even $10, I could more readily justify the expense than paying the additional $50 a month for just the 3D applications. .

All the included tools are filled with functionality. Photoshop is the industry standard for photo editing, much like InDesign is for desktop publishing and Illustrator for vector graphics. The tools provide even advanced features, meaning you will rarely look for more advanced alternatives. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Some of the applications may crash on times - mainly Premiere. The support is not good, but luckily, I have only needed it once in 10+ years. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The depth of features and capabilities is impressive, and I think the After Effects team is very in-tune with the needs of the userbase in motion graphics, especially when it comes to integration with 3D platforms like Blender. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The learning curve is steep, and some of the best features, are implemented in a way that is very hidden / not-intuitive. But, the fact that these abilities and features are even there at all, more than makes up for this. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Everything about After Effects is cutting edge. This is the same software that the big movie studios use to create their video content. Just as many of the higher-end Adobe programs, there is a VERY steep curve when it comes to learning everything After Effects can do. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

With such a steep learning curve, you HAVE TO find some standardized training to fully grasp all you can do in After Effects. This is not a program that you simply "pick up and use." You will need to attend a 2-3 intensive workshop to fully grasp all that After Effects has to offer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

All designing software comes under one ambrella. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Price is too High for the adobe licenses Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love everything about After Effects, if you're not using it for any production project, you are missing out on a lot of quality and creativity with what you're trying to portray. The number of features this has can provide anyone from an entry level youtuber to a big movie production. It drastically improves your videos. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The steep learning curve. It's hard to understand the use-case for this when things like Adobe Premiere or Davinci Resolve exist. But once you understand what can be done with this product, it will push your production to the next level. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Adobe After Effects is so user friendly and intuative that I was able to teach myself to do professional quality video editing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The only thing I dislike about Adobe After Effects is the export journey through adobe media encoder which can sometimes be really slow. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It serves as a central hub for my Adobe experience. I can manage fonts, assets, files, and sharing through the Creative Cloud. In addition, it includes quick tutorials and resources to other valuable information within the Adobe ecosystem. It will be interesting to see what AI integration will do to the app as it did for the other Adobe applications. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

the user interface could use a modern overhaul and make relevant topics more center stage. The file management system feels underdeveloped when it comes to some standard features usually associated with file managers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
