Adobe Bridge Reviews: 4.2/5 — Solid Choice

The software is really easy to use and the fact that the software is included in the Adobe cloud suite makes it affordable

Does not always work well with the other products

This product helps with making images and correcting light and other issues

Awesome way to organize images. I use it primarily for managing my photo files but you can also use for InDesign files as well as Illustrator files.

Finding files along the Path bar is cumbersome. It takes a while to get used to this feature.

It's very useful for organizing client files when I am diligent about tagging them upfront. Makes it very easy to find later and keeping track of latest version of files.

makes finding files easier, good interface, organized

at first it is hard to navigated but takes time to get used to

organization of files and archives, it makes it a lot easier to find old files and organize them in an efficient manner

Adobe bridge is great and helpful software tool for editing photos. What I like the most about it is you can edit by batches. You can apply the same changes to a group of images, don't need to do it one by one. You can rename all the files at a time. The interface is User friendly and easy to use.

As being a Photoshop user, using the program gets some time to get used to since it works quite differently.

When I take pictures of my company to post on social media I can use Adobe Bridge to edit them all fast and easy.

Adobe Bridge is a great way to see files that have been created for design projects. There are numerous ways of sorting them, and it works seamlessly with the other Creative Cloud apps. Bridge also shows metadata for files and gives much more info than Apple's Finder.

Indexing files can be slow on older Macs like mine. The key is to let the program index your project files. Then it's a great Finder replacement. The interface can be confusing at times.

This program allows me to see previews of files that I have created. It's a great way to access them without opening them in their native apps. It's a quicker way to work with my project files.

Easy to get deep in detail with your metadata needs. Exactly what I need.

Sometimes it takes long for the metadata to sync back to the file.

I like bridge more than photomechanic, easier to navigate through all my metadata needs.

I like how easy it is to cull images and choose the best ones to edit. I love that you can "rate" your images. Or, if you "delete" one from Bridge, it just hides it so you can see what you have left.

I honestly can't think of anything I dislike about it. It's super easy to use and I love it!

Editing photographs - I'm a photographer and Bridge makes sorting through and picking my favorites from each session a lot faster! It helps me to get my editing done much quicker.

I really like how Bridge works in conjunction with Photoshop. The interface is intuitive and has a lot of great features for quick organization and examining files in detail before working on them further in other applications.

I occasionally experience errors in downloading very large batches of files and connection difficulties with my camera. Some colors do not show up exactly the same in Bridge's display as they do in Photoshop.

I use Bridge to import and organize images for design use with Photoshop. It is very easy to import, organize, and select photographs for work in Photoshop without having to juggle very different interfaces as one would with another photo application like iPhoto.

The ability to view an image for the files makes searching and finding things so much easier. For instance, Bridge will view indesign files as an image rather than an icon.

There isn't anything I truly dislike. However the view options in the top right are a little hard to figure out at first.

To find images in other department's files that I need, Bridge is a dream come true. Also to print shot sheets of entire folders of images is so much easier than screen shots from the mac!

I like it when it works. I'm not well versed in this program. I only use it when my computer chooses to use it when trying to open a file that my other programs won't open. Thankfully there are many video tutorials available.

Sometimes, it just doesn't do the job. Sometimes it works for me. Sometimes it doesn't. One nice feature is you can open more than one image. Example: open the original image and then open the edited version of that image and compare the two image side by side. Use the zoom feature to view the details.

I can open items and save files with the necessary extension.

Bridge is great for seeing preview images of all your working files, and the window size can be adjusted so you can zoom in to see better detail. Being able to star favorite images is also helpful if you have files that look similar to each other. The search options are great because you can search by almost anything. Date created, keywords, file type, etc.

Image loading can be slow sometimes especially if you're going through folders that are on an external server. The program takes some getting used to because there's a lot of little windows and tabs to keep track of.

It can save time to find files easily when you're looking for an image or file that is buried in a folder, especially when the file names are all similar.

Easy to use. Shows your files in nice big graphics. You can open any Adobe file right from bridge. You can see the file information like, resoultion, date created, etc....

It can take a while to load depending on the capacity of your ram.

You can see all your adobe files without having to open them first.

Adobe Bridge is a great tool for organizing the files and photos

Maybe the interface could be more modern, it's been the same for quite some time

Photo managing, file managing, search for photos, previewing photos

The ability to see previews of native Adobe files. A great batch rename feature as well as a web gallery creator.

Can't think of anything as far as a file manager app, it seems to do the trick.

Saves time with the batch rename and web gallery creator features.

You can visualize image on your true color profile with no alteration, you Sam view huge size images instantly on thumbnails view

No shortcut personalization at all! It is no practical to be going on the menu to the most of the thing. It will be great to have shortcut and action as in photoshop, especially for batching

Viewing images, running batch through PS CC 2017

Usually I only use it when I import an item from/to Photoshop, Illustrator and After Effects. My data is nicely organized and easily to look up. I feel like its an essential help tool for people who use several Adobe softwares.

There is really nothing I could dislike about this program, it just works fine for me.

It does not really solve any actual problem, but it has added value to my work since it helps me to save a little time and make my data more organized and easily accessible. So I recommend it because it gives you a hand and fasten up your working process.

I like the search option and the ease of customizing the display of images.

Sometimes it takes a long time to load files, but it could be he file size.

No business problems so far. Benefits, I can see everything at a glance and it's easy to maneuver through the program.

I like that Bridge allows for better handling and organizing of my photography. It allows for good meta tagging and works nicely with Adobe Photoshop for photo editing. I appreciate that you can use this to batch edit, and I like how the contact sheets feature works.

I dislike that it is not already a part of Adobe Photoshop, and that you have to have yet another software open and running on your computer while working with photos and/or graphic design. Although the contact sheet feature is nice, it could still use some improvement.

It helps with the organization and care of large quantities of photos at once. I think it has a nice interface and plays nicely with other softwares that I use all day, everyday. This also helps me work faster.

I love the ease in which you can batch edit groups of photos to your liking.

I dislike the inability to tag/label photos, an ability Lightroom has

The batch processing definitely cuts down on my editing time

Adobe Bridge is a great resource for handling a lot of media at a time.

Like many other Adobe CC products, it has a slow start up period. Also, I wish it could handle video a little bit better.

Im mostly working with a lot of photos at a one time. It helps me edit down photos and then begin to edit them in Photoshop.

I like that I can view a large image library of images all in one place.

I dislike sometime that the thumbnails are a bit small.

It helps me review image selections with people easier

Bridge is a software that I've used for years and enjoy. The greatest thing I use it for is sorting through folders of images quickly, culling, and renaming. The software allows me to do all of these things quickly and easily.

Bridge is one of those programs that I honestly don't think too much about in terms of 'what I wish it had.' It does what I need, so I'm happy!

I do a lot of culling and image review in my work. Bridge allows me to do that quickly and with ease, vital to getting all the things on my to do list completed on time (and with my sanity in tact).

Bridge is a great collaboration tool as well as a wonderful way to review the graphic and photo options available on your computer.

It is not the most user friendly, although it can be learned over time.

This is a great collaborative tool that allows you to work strategically across multiple locations and multiple devices.

When viewing photos within bridge, I like that you are able to adjust the size or each photo, the background color (for checking to make sure white background photography is white) and to see all the technical specs (pixels, dpi)..

This is probably just my own computers performance issue, but I usually end up opening a photoshoot folder with over 6,000 images in it to go through and bridge takes an awful long time to load and preview the tif files. When I am comparing two different folders, I have to open two different bridge windows. It would be so much easier if I could open two "tabs" so that navigating between the two is easier.

Having the ability to star photos makes using bridge extremely useful when making image selects. Saving us time and money! Full screen mode has also been useful when I am presenting my image selects to the senior graphic designer.

Preview of all document types - useful feature that Finder has on Mac OS that is not supported by Windows Explorer.

Interface looks quite outdated comparing with other Adobe products.

I'm able to quickly find required psd, ai and pdf files with no need to open them all first.

I like that it is easier to view photos when there are lots of photos, rather than trying to view them all in the Finder window at once.

It can be a little difficult to figure out when first using the program.

We have a lot of photos at the University where I work, so utilizing this program greatly increases our efficiency when sorting through and picking photos.

Adobe Bridge has a very Intuitive UI that allows easy sharing, storage and sorting of digital assets for design projects. It came as part of Adobe Creative suite and it wasn't something I realized that I needed until I had it.

The only issue I have is that the UI can sometimes be clunky or slow, especially if I am calling up some raw images / high resolution images that take a while to load. I have a hard time deciding if I like this program or Lightroom better, as there are some things that Lightroom does better.

Before I had this I was accessing assets such as photos from folders on my PC, now I just boot up Adobe Bridge and can share the assets very easily to each Adobe program, or between Adobe programs. It also has great automated features, such as one-click generation of web galleries using groups of photos.

Adobe Bridge is great for viewing files such as EPS and AI which traditionally Windows will not let you preview. It also has drag and drop capabilities to any of the Creative Suite programs.

I wish I could customize the layout of the Bridge program more to my own specific liking.

This program is helping save time when it comes to creating graphic layouts using Adobe Creative suite programs. The drag and drop functionality saves time and stress of opening multiple files which trying to locate th eone you need.

Easily connect and find files with a great preview feature. If you are on a Mac, its like Finder's old, smarter brother. I must admit after a few updates ago, I stopped using it as much as I should, I need to get back in the habit of using it more.

Contact sheet use to be very easy to make but after a few upgrades ago its a little bit more of a pain with a little less easy to change settings. If it automatically opened or defaulted to Bridge to find files when using other Adobe programs it would force me to use it more.

Organizing, recalling, finding and previewing files. Making contact sheet to review stock photo options.

I think bridge does a great job at bathe processing. It's fast and efficient. I also like being able to select a number of images at the same time and pick the best one out of the bunch.

I would like the option of being able to have more control over the background of the interface. I wish I could make the background go completely black, an option not available.

I really like the lens profiles in Adobe bridge. It's a feature that capture one does not have, which makes bridge very valuable.
