"Great Value for Quick Graphics and Basic Video Editing"
5/5
What do you like best about Adobe Express?

Overall, it’s a good tool with decent value for money. It offers solid features for creating quick graphics and doing basic video editing. I also like how easy it is to use, with drag-and-drop controls and editable fields. I got Adobe Express as part of my wider Creative Cloud subscription, which made it a convenient addition to what I already use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Adobe Express?

Some features are limited unless you pay for a subscription. The customization options also aren’t very advanced, so it can feel a bit restrictive if you’re looking for more control. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Easy, Fast, and Professional Designs from Day One with Adobe Express"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Adobe Express?

What I like most about Adobe Express is how easy it feels from the first use. I didn't need any design background to start creating posters, social media posts, or simple graphics. Everything is already well arranged, so I just choose a template, change the text, and add my image. It saves a lot of effort and time. Another good thing is the clean design quality. Even when I make something quickly, it still looks professional and attractive. The fonts, colors, and layout are balanced so my designs don't look messy or overdone. I also like how fast it works. I don't feel lost inside too many tools or options. The interface is simple, which makes the whole design process smooth and stress-free. For quick marketing posts or personal projects, it feels very practical. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Adobe Express?

One thing I don't like much is that some advanced features are limited unless you upgrade. Sometimes I want more customization or premium assets, but they are locked behind a paid plan, which can feel restrictive. Another issue is that the deep editing options are not always available. If I want very detailed control over layers or design elements, it can feel basic compared to full design software. Also, when working on complex designs, it sometimes feels less flexible. It's great for quick work but not always ideal for long or highly detailed design tasks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Easy for Beginners with Clean Design and Tons of Templates"
4/5
What do you like best about Adobe Express?

I like Adobe Express because it is very easy to use, even for beginners. The layout is clean and simple, so it doesn’t feel overwhelming when you first open it. All the tools are clearly labeled, which makes it quick to find what you need. I also appreciate the wide variety of templates available for social media posts, presentations, flyers, and other projects. These templates make it easy to create professional-looking designs in a short amount of time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Adobe Express?

One thing I dislike about Adobe Express is that some of the best features are only available with a paid subscription. While the free version is useful, certain templates, fonts, images, and advanced tools are locked behind a premium plan, which can be frustrating if you’re trying to create something specific without paying.

"Effortless Design Across Devices"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Adobe Express?

I use Adobe Express to build brand templates and create social content. I appreciate that it gives me a platform I can use on literally any device, allowing me to easily share with others for feedback or collaboration. I like that it works just as well on my phone as it does on my desktop, which is great because I'm super busy both at work and personally. Being able to throw something together on my phone makes it so much easier for me to get things done. The initial setup was also quick and easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Adobe Express?

I wish there was even more ability to lock things down from a brand perspective. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A Fast and Easy Creative Tool"
5/5
What do you like best about Adobe Express?

It’s a great creative tool for people who aren’t designers by trade or training. It offers a large library of icons, images, clipart, and fonts to pull from, which makes it easy to create assets that look like they could have been made in Photoshop or InDesign. It’s also pretty quick and easy to use, and it includes AI tools to help you draft and brainstorm if you need a little assistance getting started.

Another thing I like is that, if you work with designers, you can build out your idea in Adobe Express and then send the file to a designer who can open it directly in Photoshop or InDesign to iterate or refine. And if you already have a Creative Cloud account or team account, it’s a pretty cheap add-on compared to a Canva account. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Adobe Express?

The font library is still lagging and your ability to transform/alter text is lacking as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Intuitive Design Tool with Room for Improvement"
4/5
What do you like best about Adobe Express?

I find Adobe Express pretty intuitive and easy to use. Everything's pretty much where you could expect it to be, and it has a lot of different capabilities. I need to create a lot of creative assets for social media posts, and when I'm trying to create something quickly, it's easy to use because everything's there and easy to use. Additionally, I like how we can add in our brand to make things a template with brand colors and fonts, so it's all in one place, and I don't have to create a new thing every time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Adobe Express?

For me, the video editing is really horrible. I think that editing is difficult and very inefficient. I think as well that sometimes it's hard to space out parts of a graphic equally. If I have, you know, two sets of text and I want them to be an even amount of space away from each other, as well as the border of the image, it's not easy to do that. I have to vary it a lot. I'm not able to edit an exact distance away. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Effortless Versioning and Workflow Simplification"
5/5
What do you like best about Adobe Express?

I like that Adobe Express makes my creative work easy. I am able to build templates and manage my workflow a lot easier than just simply using Adobe Illustrator. It helps with eliminating time versioning and reviewing assets for approval. Some projects I get are super complex and need a lot of versioning, so it's great to have Adobe Express as a tool to help with versioning. I also use it to make templates to share with the creative team so we can all work faster. The initial setup was very easy, it's a super easy program. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Adobe Express?

I think the UI could be better. I think bringing in some of the useful shortcuts on the keyboard would help make versioning easier within Express. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Streamlined Design Workflow with Minor Editing Limitations"
5/5
What do you like best about Adobe Express?

I use Adobe Express to design social media content, ads, and presentations. The workflow is a lot simpler, and I can easily create an asset and schedule it using the same software. I like the availability of multiple assets from Adobe Stock and elements, and I appreciate the ease of creating a vision within minutes. The initial setup of Adobe Express was easy, and I find it works well alongside Illustrator, Premiere, and Photoshop. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Adobe Express?

There is a limited capability of editing. For example, if I wanted to add flair by drawing in something or erase a small section of an asset to make it match my brand better, it is unavailable. I think if Adobe Express adopted a small brush tool/eraser tool for minor edits, this would be beneficial. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Thank You For Saving My Life"
4/5
What do you like best about Adobe Express?

Adobe's resources for design elements are top notch and it's so easy to collaborate on designs with my colleagues at work! We now use Adobe Express for all social media + display screen content Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Adobe Express?

Adobe products in general are really pushing for AI generated images which doesn't fit with out visual branding guidelines. On certain templates it can be difficult to turn off features that automatically adjust text sizes and don't tell you what the text size actually is. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Ideal for Quick, Creative Social Media Posts"
5/5
What do you like best about Adobe Express?

I use Adobe Express for creating social media posts and videos for my live webinars, and it's great for changing text and resizing posters. I really appreciate the numerous templates that save me time because I only need to make minimal changes to fit my brand. The animation presets are very helpful, and I love the one-click option to animate static posters. The AI feature that automatically fills in empty spaces when I resize my canvas is amazing. Adobe Express is super friendly, and even people who aren't designers, like students, can use it easily. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Adobe Express?

I think the credits when exporting videos are a bit frustrating. When I upload bigger duration videos like 5 minutes, it takes up a lot of credits when exporting. Also, when I upload many videos in Adobe Express, they automatically expire or get deleted from my dashboard, which shouldn't happen unless I click delete, but I didn't do it. I tried using Adobe Express for retyping text for a risk warning because it's easier to use and web-based, so anyone can edit it. But I noticed that after I rewrite it and exit the editing, the video expires, so I have to redo it again. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
