| Pros | Cons |
|---|---|
| Free tier is genuinely usable | Per-editor pricing adds up for teams |
| Browser-based — works on any OS | Not suited for print design or photo editing |
| Real-time collaboration (best in class) | Complex interface for non-designers |
| Industry standard for UI/UX design | Enterprise tier is very expensive |
| Dev Mode for developer handoff | Owned by Adobe (some community concern) |
Adobe CC covers broader design needs (print, photo, video). Canva is simpler for non-designers. Figma is specifically the best tool for UI/UX, web design, and design systems.
