Even better, these apps have some features Adobe doesn't offer.Īdobe must be worried about their position, and that's healthy. The reality is I can get the same results I've been getting from Photoshop/Lightroom in my workflow using On1 and the Skylum apps when needed. No, at this point they aren't true Adobe competitors in all aspects and feature lists, but they are getting there.

On the Windows side there is tne suite of photo editing tools from Corel and more.

On the Mac side there is also Acorn and Pixelmator Pro. I'm glad to see meaningful competition appearing, like the aforementioned On1 and Skylum products. I don't find the subscription price for the photography package exorbitant in any way, but Adobe could raise the pricing at any time, and they likely will. I appreciate all the many contributions Adobe has made to the art and science of image editing. At some point soon, it's likely I will kiss Adobe goodbye, but I'd rather Adobe stop the slide. I'm using Skylum's Aurora for HDR work, and Luminar when I need some light effects editing. It's not perfect, but it seems to be moving faster in adding new features and its been quite stable.

I'm slowly evolving to On1 for cataloging and raw processing. I'm sure there's a way to stop the barrage but I'm afraid I'll miss some important message I'd like to read.įor many years, Adobe had no competition. Speaking of marketing, since Adobe has my name and email I'm getting a lot of spam from them (they probably don't consider it spam) along with pitches for Adobe products I don't want. They don't need another app supervising updates and the app just creates more problems and frustrations.

Individual apps should update on their own. Worse, Adobe uses it to market stuff to me, The app serves no real purpose with the way i work. The Adobe Creative Cloud app itself is buggy and intrusive, and sucks down computer resources. How about an Adobe web page that gives us the status of these things? It's OK to not go on to develop a feature. There have been more things shown over the years which we are still waiting for, but I won't bore you with a long list. It was greeted with much praise and applause. In 2016 Adobe demonstrated what looked like a terrific sky replacement feature. I'm also a little aggravated about some little things. Likewise, it will be cheaper for me if I drop my CC subscription. I know it's cheap for Adobe to farm out support overseas. I don't care what country the support people are in, or their nationality, but they really need to speak English clearly. I'm having some issues with Photoshop now, but I'll be damned if I'll call and struggle to understand what I'm hearing, and be forced to go through an irrelevant script of actions that don't relate to the problem I'm having.

I'm all for full employment, but I have to ask these people 2-3 times to repeat themselves so I can understand them. But in the last few years I've never gotten a native English speaker. You can still call Adobe and get a real person. I can't get rid of it, so every time I empty my trash it's still there like some persistent zombie. I tried the Adobe uninstaller, (no dice) and every terminal trick I knew (nada). I put it in the trash, and now can't delete it because it's 'in use'. I noticed an old copy of Adobe Bridge on my Mac, pre CC days. Here's another example of complete frustration. These kinds of issues stop my workflow cold, and for years Photoshop and Lightroom were stable and not something I had to worry about. Lately, I have gotten several warnings that the Creative Cloud app is 'broken' and needs to repair itself. Photoshop randomly slows down with even simple tasks and no other applications s open. Who knows? It shouldn't be there, and I've has been through several updates and the blank window remains. Maybe it's an invitation to go play golf. Maybe it's an error message that never forms. Using Adobe Bridge pops up a big blank window when it launches. I sense Adobe has made several changes to their plug-in architecture. It was Adobe, not the plug-in developers.

But then, magically, a new PS update fixed the plug-ins. I called Adobe and they responded that plug-ins weren't their responsibility and that I should call the plug-in developers. Sometimes, after a Photoshop update they simply vanished.

About a year ago I was having problems with plug-ins.

#ALIEN SKIN EXPOSURE 7 PLUG IN CRASHING SOFTWARE#

There are lot's of them, at least on the Mac side, which is, after all, the original platform Adobe wrote their software for. Today, I'm rethinking the value proposition of both Photoshop and Lightroom, and new editors like On1 and products from Skylum have forced me to rethink my marriage to the Adobe ecosystem.

If you'd have asked me 5 years ago if I could live without Adobe's photo editors I would have said no. The software is increasingly buggy, and new versions fix some things and break others.
