“One minor annoyance is that the text-to-speech feature can be a bit finicky at times, and it took a bit to figure out how to use it properly.”

“Furthermore, Adobe Express has a lightweight timeline, and its Video editor is not professional.”

Cons

“I migrated from Adobe suite to coraldraw 8 years ago and still can't find more designing abilities and stability to handle big files like coraldraw does”

“Reaching a real person is nearly impossible—phone numbers are often useless, emails bounce back with "invalid request" errors, and support tickets go unanswered for weeks.”

Xander V.

IT Admin

“One of the biggest difficulties of the software is that it has a limited reach compared to other more well-known design programs, so the support and community is not as wide, and the cost can be very high.”
