Spark contains a range of premade templates that helps me generate business info-graphics, web and video pages. A personalized dashboard with step by step instructions as to how to create my deliverable. Besides all, the exporting and sharing of the design is really user friendly and quick.

The free version is available, but the paid version is not available to try. Also, I can not upgrade my free version to premium because no pricing is available right now. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
As an employee working in higher education, our institution allowed us to use the Adobe products for free as part of our licensing agreement with Adobe. This included Adobe Spark. If you have a business or paid account for Spark, you are able to add your own logo and use stock images and features that give you more tools to work with. What I liked about it was that the interface and tools are easy to use to generate quick, great-looking posts that even our lower-level (students) employees could learn and use. There is also a great app to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Unlike its other competitors (Canva), the sizing and customization of posts is much more limited. Unless you are a pro with the more sophisticated Adobe program, customizing on Spark will be limited in generating content. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Adobe Spark is very user-friendly. It does not take much experience at all to be able to make something elegant using their interface. I also really appreciate how easy it is to share the content that you create in Adobe Spark. I am able to easily link my creations to my email newsletter with no difficulty.

There is almost no customizability with the free version. This changes with a subscription, but the free version locks you into their preset themes and layouts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I like the ease with which one can create various types of infographics with Spark. Its functionalities are entirely based on drag & drop, making it easy & manageable to navigate. The templates they provide with it are handy too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
If you don't have prior experience using any adobe products, it may require you to learn a few basics before beginning work. Another con is that even though its icon library is substantial, its font library is not tangible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I like the aspect that it is seamless and entirely free to design and download graphics with Spark. Everything is quickly sizable and elegant due to its drag and drop. You can also use the templates they offer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
A least favourite aspect of Adobe Spark is that there are copyright watermarks that I must repeatedly turn off to make sure my designs are my own. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Adobe Spark has been so helpful when it comes to making short, informative video content. The interface is simple to use for easy story-telling. For a topping out party I wanted more than just a slideshow with pictures and I relied on Adobe Spark to be able to craft quick video content and messaging. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I wish there was a little bit more control with how you could crop and resize images within the layouts, and the option to have an audio-cutter within the software. I also wish it were less complicated to mess with the color theme of your own branding. If you want to use your own music, make sure your audio file starts at the point where you would want it to in your Spark video because it automatically starts the audio from the beginning of the file.

I can easily edit any photo I want to make it pop for social media. It also connects seamlessly to Adobe Stock so I am able to choose between my already owned images. The duplication and resizing options also make it easy to adapt the same photo for different uses. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I wish there were more tools to align text and move items freely. Also some of the images seem to get too compressed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
That you don't have to be a trained graphic designer to create engaging and interesting graphics and easily size them to the social media platforms you use. I also use Spark to create posters, banners, and even print ads and powerpoint slides. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Sometimes it freezes and needs to reboot if you have made a lot of changes to its sample graphics, especially when making videos. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Makes it easy to quick put together graphics for social media or merge together video clips. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
For someone who is very experienced in Adobe Products, I wish there were more capabilities in this product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Spark provides professional quality social media content creation for non-designers. It offers a variety of templates and free content (and support for more with a separate Adobe Stock subscription) to allow people with little or no commercial design background to quickly produce slick image based messages tailored to the top social media channels. Even for the professional, the preset sizes and ability to upload corporate identity materials (with a Creative Cloud subscription) support fast turnaround on social collateral for projects. Additionally, desktop and mobile support (Spark is a cloud-based application) provide the flexibility to create "on-the-go" for professional designer and busy social media manager alike. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Application is targeted at non-designers so the flexibility is somewhat limited. If one has a paid Adobe Creative Cloud account (I do) then you are able to customize Spark by uploading corporate identity materials, and set a corporate color set. Otherwise, this has to be entered manually each time. The application provides presets which may be frustrating to a professional designer, but it offsets that by being fast, simple, and mobile friendly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I use Adobe Spark to quickly and easily put together visuals for social media posts for my company and my clients. It is clean, easy to understand, and has many premade included layouts (with more added all the time). Even for the most novice designer or an intern with no design background can put together a post in minutes. I love the branding capabilities that allow for preloaded colors and logos, and the ability to upload my own photos/fonts/etc. I use Adobe Spark daily, and have recommended it to clients that do their own social media management.

Because it is similar to a simplistic version of Adobe InDesign, there are limitations to what you can do with it. But that isn't what I would consider a bad thing - it does what it is made for very well. If there was some sort of program with a mid-range functionality between the two, it would be perfect for my needs, but that said, I still consider Spark to be a fantastic program.

I like that Spark has templates that enable you to prepare a design that will fit any size of social media posts from Facebook and Instagram to LinkedIn and Twitter. It also allows you to intuitively design collages, cards, and announcements. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
When creating collages, you have to select from prebuilt templates that don't give you as much flexibility as you might like. In other words, Spark does not give you the freedom to easily deviate from its prebuilt layout. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Intuitive user interface that comes with many template options ready to edit and use
It is obvious that the main purpose of the program is to create social media content fast without a steep learning curve
The content creation capabilities include tools for very rudimentary video editing which are probably better suited for IGTV or FB Stories Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The ability to connect to dropbox feels a bit more complicated than it should be
The cloud based nature of the app means that if high speed internet is not available, it will be a painfuly slow process to get much done Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Usar la plataforma es muy fácil. no es necesario tener habilidades de diseño gráfico para hacer un diseño con nivel profesional. Los formatos establecidos por default en mi panel de creador han sido de ayuda para hacer más eficiente mi labor, me brinda los tamaños adecuados para publicar en cada plataforma, además no consume recursos de mi computadora ya que todo se realiza a través de un sitio web, por lo que puedo trabajar en la plataforma incluso en los dispositivos más básicos. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Hasta el momento he utilizado mi cuenta de adobe spark sin ningún problema, todo ha funcionado perfectamente. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Puedo trabajar en linea y es muy rápido, obtener un diseño para redes sociales es muy fácil, las medidas son precisas y los elementos tienen el tamaño ideal para evitar que demore al subirse, de igual forma lo he utilizado para editar clips pequeños y puedo guardarlos en diversos formatos para utilizarlo en el medio que necesite, es una herramienta muy completa, no hay necesidad de procesar después de exportar en otros software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Aunque es una plataforma versátil y cómoda de usar, no me permite publicar el contenido directamente en redes sociales, es necesario descargar los archivos y publicarlos de forma manual, podría mejorarse la experiencia de usuario si al menos se permitiera esta funcionalidad. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It's really easy to use, add music, and transactions. It also has great export feature that can go right into facebook. The user interface and templates also provide great starting points for your video. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It is a bit slow to use and when processing videos, but that is to be expected. Also it is lacking more advanced features. But that's okay -- it's meant to be a simple app! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The top useful feature of Adobe Spark is that it as a 'Brands' tab through which one can add custom brand color and logo to be used on designs and creations. Besides, it is also possible to store, share, and receive designs through its 'Projects' tab. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Designing infographics and animation videos through its mobile app is challenging due to the small screen size, so its mobile app is almost useless. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
1. The huge amount of free stock photos to choose from
2. Easy to choose the size you need
3. Perfect for social media images
4. The ability to add GIF stickers and animations
5. The suggested designs/fonts/colors that appear when you first choose your image
6. The design wheel to help decide what style to use
7. I can post directly to social media from the Spark App
8. Animations include fonts and moving the image itself. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
1. The lack of font choices
2. The shapes behind the fonts are oddly enormous and oftentimes go off the image.
3. Animations sometimes export with poor quality. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I really enjoy the ease of use! I make short videos and this has been life-saving in editing! It makes things quick and easy! I need that in my job! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I may have been confused, but I wish there was a computer app as I used it in the browser? I was not a fan of this. It is not like the other adobe programs that I use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
simplicity in creating designs on mobile devices, the options you have inside is very useful to edit or create posts with ease. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
limited fonts to have, specially arabic fonts, you can import only from adobe library which doesn't have that much of font variations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It's a user-friendly app that allows you to create a cool video quickly and easily. I liked having the ability to write on the video as well as add music from a range of tracks and songs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
At the time I used it, there was no save or draft option. One time, I spent 30 minutes creating a video and lost it. Also, I used a different app prior to this and liked it better so there was no real reason for me to switch. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Adobe Spark is a creative and great platform for designing and editing anything you are looking to create. Useful for a variety of things including Greeting cards, fliers, e-invitations, photos and more. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I don’t dislike anything other than wishing there were a larger selection of fonts although you can draw your own too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
