What our customer's say!

"The best graphic design suite!!!", Although there are faults with Adobe GoLive, that is true with any of the old web design packages now that web standards and CSS have changed so much, but hands down this is the best graphic design suite. Not only does it provide versatile stock tools and new layout functions such as smart guides which help you align objects on your pages, but it also allows you to use "actions" (multiple step processes if you do the same set of actions to photos time and time again) from other users. Automatically output the files in a wide range of formats, optimize it for the web. I use PhotoShop and ImageReady at least once a day and although I have another graphic design program that is much simpler for quick changes, it doesn't allow me to do any of Photoshops advanced actions for drastically editing photos and graphics.

"Warning: avoid GoLive!", I want to warn you about GoLive -- it is the most frustrating, least reliable, most crash-prone app I have used since switching to OS X. GoLive CS2 crashes regularly for me several times a day, and has even managed to crash WHILE SAVING A VERY IMPORTANT FILE, which wiped out an entire day's work for me, causing me to redo it all. Bottom line, Adobe does not deserve your money for this application, which they clearly dislike within the company (when you make a bug report, it's interesting to note that it's called GoLive, not Adobe GoLive). Sadly, the only thing to do is go to Dreamweaver...but that's not an option for me since its interface is not something I'm willing to use.

My distaste for Adobe is so great because of their crap with CS2 -- from the activation problems to not recognizing an upgrade of Photoshop (stand alone) when coming from the full suite set -- that I would willingly jump ship to just about any other product -- but opps! There are almost no other products anymore, since no company can stand against Photoshop, Illustrator, and so on (not even Macromedia). Bottom line, the actions of Adobe with CS2 (principally GoLive, since I rely on it so much) have robbed me of much of the joy that is my right as a Mac user.
