I can change the depth, flip images and add layers to photos.
There isn't ,much I dislike about the product, other than using the burn and sponge tools can be tricky/time-consuming.
I use it make book covers, social media promotion graphics and more. It makes marketing my writing much easier.
It allows for quality products and better photos to give to my customers. I can use at work or in my personal life. It can be accessed easily on my computer and never had issues loading the software.
It can be difficult to find certain functions to edit the photo. The use of the software is sometimes not the most user friendly and you need to have a training to take advantage of all the features in this software. I luckily had a friend that showed me the features provided to get the most out of it.
Photo editing. The benefits are definitely the type of product at the end because the photos look very professional without using a professional photographer
Once you learn it, it's pretty intuitive. And enough people use it that help is easily accessible online. You can logically figure out a work flow for achieving just about anything with a little patience. Great program for editing images but also for generating your own from scratch.
I say it's intuitive, but sometimes tools or commands don't always make sense with what they do and some are similar or named the same but perform differently. The only way to figure out exactly what they do is to test it.
I've introduced to my office a more involved usage of Photoshop for rendering buildings and spaces. I've learned the quick benefits of being able to alter or quickly highlight documents when edited as a PDF in Photoshop, and the ease of access between Adobe programs in general.
I love the versatility of Photoshop and how intuitive the navigation around the program is. You can start from scratch and build your way up through practice. The things you can do here are limitless when it comes to design. Wether it's an agency job, at a startup or even a fashion magazine, you are able to find all the tools you need to edit, create, diagram, sketch, and build all in one program. I must also say that the new update comes already with several web and printing presets, so that you won't be at a loss when starting up.
A downside of photoshop is that sometimes the updates don't work well with graphic tablets, and you have to install patches to solve them. Also the business license is pricey.
With Photoshop we currently solve our web design department, as we do the UI/UX mockups in the program, and also we use it for regular ad design for google, Facebook and other tech sites. I've realized that it's very easy too use, that's why I highly recommend it.
It's versatile and can be used for a variety of use cases.
It can be very slow to use when you're working with a large file.
It covers some of our design needs, but we rely on Illustrator and InDesign more.
I love the flexibility of the tools in photoshop– that one tool can be used for multiple different things. The Auto features tend to be more accurate than other photo editing softwares. Editing in Raw is incredibly easy and intuitive in Photoshop.
Photoshop does take up a lot of space on my scratch discs when editing.
I use Photoshop to edit, color correct, and prepare images for print and digital publication.
I love the option to use Creative Cloud for a small monthly fee!
I don't really dislike anything. This is a great product with many great features!
I can make several things myself instead if buying or paying for design
I love Photoshop's easy to navigate system and how it feels anything can be created — nothing is impossible — with this software. I use it for everything: photo editing, graphic design, retouching in any degree. On the day to day, we use it to edit the images that run in print and online. Personally, I use it in congruence with Adobe Illustrator to create the house ads and fillers we publish in print, as well as to work with advertisers to create their content that runs alongside ours. I recommend all of my employees use Photoshop, though they're encouraged to use whatever they like best. Most of them do use Photoshop. I love the flexibility and diversity of the software.
It's hard to find something to dislike about Photoshop. I would say that the only thing that initially turned me off is the cost, but after using and experiencing Photoshop, time and time again it proves that it is worth the price.
Photoshop is my go-to software for every job task. It allows me to create beautiful images or graphics quickly and support the company's endeavors with advertisers effortlessly and beautifully. The benefits are endless. Unlike a lot of other editing softwares, Photoshop is so easy to use and functions perfectly across multiple platforms and can export image documents for use across any platform: web, print, etc. We rely on Photoshop and other Adobe systems for everything our production team does. There is no other one software that we can use to achieve all of our business needs.
Some may disagree with me here, but I find it mostly intuitive, and if I don’t know something, it’s very easy learn. Layers are not something one typically thinks they need/want until you’ve used them.
The abundance of features and tools can be overwhelming in the beginning, but you learn to appreciate them. That or ignore the ones you don't use.
Enhanced photos for quality promotional material. The benefits are within the endless ways of altering each facet. The layers allow you to quickly toggle from one to the other for easy decision making on visuals.
I use Photoshop for my photography business and I love how easy it is to use! The tutorials are very helpful and its all around a great product. The new update is fantastic. There are plenty of tools for mobile and web design as well!
I dislike the multi-payments vs the one time payment. It stinks that its not cheaper to pay the one time fee rather instead of monthly payments. Also, it lacks support for HEIC.
It solves my lighting issues and I can easily make photos look more appealing to the eye.
Intuitive - I like that the adobe suite keeps things constant across all their products
I don’t like that the layers/artboards aren’t the same across indesign/photoshop/illustrator
I’m able to adjust logos and photos for training materials
I love the different things that you can do with photoshop. I often find myself playing around and editing various photos and content. Easy to use.
I wish that it was easier to work with text in photoshop, as I often have to move to InDesign and then back between the two platforms/software.
Photo editing and graphic design.
Whether it's a quick mockup or a complete design, Photoshop brings the best tools of Creative Cloud together in one program!
It's mostly for editing, therefore the learning curve to more appropriate software for designing, like InDesign can be steep.
Everything I do involves Photoshop!
What I liked about Photoshop, is that you can work on a variety of projects. You can work on a project might cartoon animation then go to another project to manipulate photo realistic elements .
There’s nothing that I disliked about Photoshop, there are some things that I create in illustratorBut that is a personal preference and because of the way I’ve learned to do some items incorporating both Photoshop and illustrator. But Photoshop is essentially or can essentially do the same things that illustrator can do.

I love the filters that can be used to soften, sharpen, or completely change the look of photos.
Sometimes the quick keys and other functions of the software are not intuitive, or you need to know photography jargon to master it.
When I need photography for marketing my theatre company, I can rely on Photoshop to help me make mediocre photos look professional.
Flexibility and ability to copy and paste from other adobe software.
Does not have inclined angled guides. Designing graphic elements would be way easier with some inclined guides instead of creating straight lines and hiding them.
I design marketing materials and web elements on photoshop.
Non-designers think of Photoshop as the tool to create funny pictures of their friends' heads on a dog's body. But if you're a designer like me, Photoshop is a god-send. It's got everything I need to work with photographs, including great tools for editing white-balance, colors, and other post-processing tasks.
Photoshop is definitely a power tool, and sometimes it feels like they've crammed a bit too much in. It's odd that there are so many options for things like gifs when there are other tools in Adobe's Creative Cloud offering that handle those tasks better.
I use Adobe Photoshop for correcting photos before using them in other design tools. It's the best tool for the job by far.
What's so special about Photoshop? How about everything? Photoshop is popular enough that it's become a verb for good reason. It's got everything you need to edit photos. The options for color correction, cropping, editing white balance, working with layers, and even typography are fantastic.
Photoshop is so powerful it's sometimes possible for even seasoned designers to get lost in it. This is less of a complaint and more of a comment than anything, though.
I use Photoshop to edit and color-correct photos, create graphics, and even make the occasional gif. It's hands-down my favorite design tool
Photoshop reminds me of that Apple commercial from last year... "the only thing that's new is everything." What I love about Photoshop is that it manages to feel fresh with every new release while still feeling familiar. From the updated tools for editing and correcting colors to the layers palette to the the calligraphy options, everything feels "right" in Photoshop.
Photoshop can be a bit daunting to learn. While I'm an old hat, I work with some designers who are newer, so I'm constantly helping them navigate the app. I wish Photoshop did a better job helping newbies.
I use photoshop to correct photos, create graphics, and design projects. It's a powerful application that helps me get my job done.
The best way to create a a distorted image, or create a realistic image from various different images.
It takes getting used to but otherwise I have no real criticism.
Creating photorealistic images of architectural projects so that architects are able to show clients what their building will look like in real life.
