The developers of Adobe CC 2018 23.0.0 took creative software to the next level. This update brought new tools, better app integration, and faster performance, making it even better for designers, photographers, and video editors.
As a part of the FixThePhoto team of retouchers and writers, I got to try Adobe Creative Cloud 2018 before it came out. While testing, I saw that it worked a lot faster and smoother. Editing pictures and videos felt more efficient and I think creatives around the world will love this update.
Adobe CC 2018 23.0.0 is great for both professionals and beginners. If you're a subscriber, you can get a free update, and new users can try Adobe Creative Cloud free for 7 days.

After using Adobe CC 2018 23.0.0, here are some things that could be better:
1. Even though Adobe CC 2018 added cloud syncing to make it easier to access your files across different devices, there are still problems sometimes. Files don’t always sync properly, which can slow down your work, especially when working with others. Better syncing would make the work process easier and more efficient.
2. With all the new features, some users might find apps like Photoshop and Premiere Pro confusing. There are a lot of options and menus, which can be too much for beginners. Making the interface simpler and cleaner would make it easier to use without losing essential features.
3. The subscription-based pricing is a problem for many people. While it seems cheaper at first, it can cost a lot over time. Offering more flexible payment options or a one-time payment plan for those who prefer it would be a great improvement.
If you're looking for free Adobe CC alternatives), here are some tools we’ve tested with my colleagues at FixThePhoto over the years that can help you create great photos:
GIMP is a free tool that’s a good replacement for Photoshop. It works well for basic and intermediate photo editing. You can customize it and use many types of files, but the UI can be hard to use at first, and it doesn’t have all the advanced features of Photoshop.
Pixlr is a great alternative to Photoshop or Illustrator. It has tools for cropping, resizing, fixing colors, and adding text or effects. Pixlr is easier to use than Photoshop and it also works directly in your web browser, so you don’t have to install anything. However, it doesn’t have the same professional tools as Adobe, so it’s not as good for really complex projects.
Darktable is a great Lightroom alternative. It’s great for editing RAW images, color correction, and organizing photos. It’s more difficult for beginners to use, and while Lightroom is better for managing photos, batch editing, and syncing with the cloud, Darktable does a good job with photo editing.
Inkscape is a free alternative to Illustrator. It’s perfect for designing logos and other vector art. The interface is easy to understand, and while Inkscape is great for simple designs and is customizable, it doesn't have as many advanced features as Illustrator.
Audacity is a free program for recording and editing audio, and it’s a good alternative to Adobe Audition. When comparing Adobe Audition vs Audacity, Audacity stands out as a great tool for trimming, mixing, and adding effects to audio, but it doesn’t have all the advanced features like Adobe Audition, and it doesn’t work as smoothly with other Adobe apps.
One of the best things about Adobe CC 2018 23.0.0 is the ability to use actions, which are pre-recorded steps that help you do repetitive tasks faster, like applying complex effects or editing pictures. With just one click, you can easily upgrade your images or apply the same style every time, saving you lots of time and effort.
