"Dreamweaver: Something for everyone"
What do you like best about Adobe Dreamweaver?

The thing I like best about Dreamweaver is the integration with other Adobe Apps.

What do you dislike about Adobe Dreamweaver?

I dislike that no one else has picked up on a service like Dreamweaver making it a program with no real competition. When these sorts of monopolies happen, I feel the customer loses out on functions that could be implemented.

What problems is Adobe Dreamweaver solving and how is that benefiting you?

The business problems is that it easily can create websites based on our designs and ideas.

"Great for html emails"
What do you like best about Adobe Dreamweaver?

I use Adobe Dreamweaver when I code html emails. I love being able to see the code editor and the live view at the same time. It especially has helped me when dealing with html tables. When there are multiple tables within a table, Adobe Dreamweaver makes it easier to find what table I want to edit instead of having to go through all the code.

What do you dislike about Adobe Dreamweaver?

I kind of hate how much Adobe charges for Dreamweaver and all their other products. They are the best though, so until I find something better I'll have to keep paying for it.

What problems is Adobe Dreamweaver solving and how is that benefiting you?

Mostly making html emails, which are being used in lead nurturing workflows to acquire more leads and customers.

"Perfect for both Coders and Designers"
What do you like best about Adobe Dreamweaver?

Dreamweaver is amazing. You can code all aspects of a page or if you are not as comfortable with the coding side, you can design with the code hidden and Dreamweaver will do the rest for you! I prefer to have both the coding and design windows open.

What do you dislike about Adobe Dreamweaver?

I use Dreamweaver CS6 and they are no longer providing updates for this version. I have not switched to the CC version yet.

What problems is Adobe Dreamweaver solving and how is that benefiting you?

Dreamweaver allows us to use in house graphic designers. As a small non-profit we do not have a big budget for web design. However with Dreamweaver we have been able to successfully launch beautiful pages as if we outsourced.

"Dreamweaver for Website Design"
What do you like best about Adobe Dreamweaver?

This software is to create website faster and made easy for website designers to create a website for the first time.

Currently I do not have any issue to dislike this. Just need to see a new interface from Adobe. More functions to create Modern, Responsive websites. Add-ons facilities so that we can use more 3rd party options as well.

What problems is Adobe Dreamweaver solving and how is that benefiting you?

To design websites because it saves our time, energy and cost. No need to write the codes from the scratch.

"Great tool, but not always intuitive"
What do you like best about Adobe Dreamweaver?

Great once you have a website set up and need to do quick fixes. I wish I had learned about templates years ago!

What do you dislike about Adobe Dreamweaver?

I haven't used a lot of features of the program because of my background in HTML (seemed like more work to use a drop down menu than to just type in a href, etc.

What problems is Adobe Dreamweaver solving and how is that benefiting you?

I like teaching people how to edit websites using Dreamweaver (can make things easier for me since web editing and design isn't my job title), but it still isn't really possible for them to create pages easily for themselves

Very user friendly, and integral with other Design programs under Adobe

Steep learning curve.Learning DW for the first can be really intimidating just by the user interface alone. Granted things are grouped kinda well, but there are some oddball interface items that can confuse even experienced users.

Code Highlighting helps quickly scan my code as well as spot any errors.

"Dreamweaver: Simple and easy code editing"
What do you like best about Adobe Dreamweaver?

I love how Dreamweaver color codes everything, which makes differentiating between segments of code a breeze for novices like me. The live preview function is great too. It helps let you know exactly what goes where. Find and replace is super helpful too. So easy to edit large portions of code.

What do you dislike about Adobe Dreamweaver?

Doesn't necessarily explain what all the tools do or how to use all of them. Needs a little bit of work in that regard. Without proper training, you won't know what tools you have at your disposal within the program.

What problems is Adobe Dreamweaver solving and how is that benefiting you?

Makes it so easy for someone whose job function isn't webdev to go in, edit code, and export it out.

"Great experience"
What do you like best about Adobe Dreamweaver?

What I like the most is that Dreamweaver cut out the harder process all together and offer the ideal and easiest tools for a better performance.

What do you dislike about Adobe Dreamweaver?

What I dislike is that Dreamweaver is not a necessary tool. It could be replaced by any number of programs, including something as simple as Notepad.

What problems is Adobe Dreamweaver solving and how is that benefiting you?

I used to generate page codes to complete some features in the process of build a web page. The benefist that I have realized with Dreamweaver is that I can see is an good tool for developing websites which supports HTML, CSS, JAVAscript, ASP, JSP, Flash.

There aren't any business problems that I'm solving with Adobe Dreamweaver because we utilize the entire Adobe Suite from start to finish in our web design process. The benefits would be that there is a suite to create your entire site on.
