Excellent Platform
Likeliness to Recommend
What differentiates Adobe InDesign from other similar products?
My company has a creative department with expertly trained graphic designers, presentation designers, art directors, creative directors, etc. This software is critical to our success and the ability of our team to deliver our services to our clients. Currently, no other platforms offer the breadth and quality that InDesign offers.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
The variety of tools available to create templates.
What do you dislike most about this product?
The difficulty of managing assets, especially since so many different people may work on one project. If the assets are not managed outside of the platform in an organized way it can create a lot of extra work.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
If you want to take your graphics, presentations, PDFs, etc. to the next level, you will need InDesign. However, it is not a straightforward software to learn, it takes years to fully understand the features and capabilities that are within the platform. You need to ensure you or the person you are buying this for is fully trained on it.
Pros
- Helps Innovate
- Reliable
- Enables Productivity
- Unique Features
