 Product good; Obtaining Licence - Horrendous November 7, 2008
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I purchased this product for my 14-year old Daughter to use for her ICT homework and GCSE-based coursework. The product may be good, but trying to obtain a Licence number to use the product after the 30-day trial is horrendous. Firstly, you have to complete their Form and upload this as an attachment to an email; secondly you have to provide proof that the Student is in education; and thirdly you have to provide a photo of the Student/Child. Filling out a Form is understandable, downlaoding and attaching to an email is easily done! However, surely Adobe realise that in the UK, all children of 16 & under (Year 11 and below) have to attend School - we the parents get prosecuted if they don't. But, no we still have to prove that they attend an educational establishment, by obtaining a letter from an already overworked teacher, downloading a copy and attaching that to the same email. Then to compound it all, we have to send a photo of our child (something we encourage our kids not to do on the internet) on the same email. So, if you manage all of these things, you may eventually get the 'treasured' licence number, but not in the timeframe they promise. However, should you encounter any difficulty, then you really have problems. The Adobe Technical Helpline is not a freephone number. Once you are able to get through the many options on the phone line, it then advises you that they are experiencing a heavy call load and that there will be a hour's waiting time!!!! Remember you are getting charged for listening to music. Finally, you may get to speak to someone, who does not understand or speak English. I'm not racist, and I admire very much those people who attempt to speak and work with another language, but when I've been kept holding for an hour ... I want to proiritise my issue briefly, succinctly and get a coherent response immmediately. Take my advise, ring Adobe Sales on the 0800 number, and insist that Sales put you through to Technical Support - you will still have to hold for an hour, but at least it will be free!!!
 The education discount makes this software superb value April 27, 2008

Do you have a uni undergraduate in your household. If so, get this : the mother of photo software.
If you are a student why not buy it now. You can use if after you graduate in your work. Many employers these days insist that people have proper licences for software.
If there's a schoolkid in the house you are eligible for this great photo-editing software November 13, 2007

With Photoshop 'extended' you get everything in standard Photoshop CS3, plus tools for editing 3D and motion-based content and performing image analysis [although freebie ImageJ offers more of the latter]. If your child is a school pupil (Primary/secondary) or university student you can use this software once you get their school/university to stamp and sign the form. The software is thus home use only and must be used non-commercially (i.e. for educational use). In fact my 11 year old son uses Photoshop CS3 regularly as I can teach him being a professional user myself. Photoshop Extended does have a steep learning curve, largely as the on-line help is pretty awful (e.g. it never says exactly where to find the command). However once on the PC at home, both parents and offspring are able use this powerful photo-editing software.
Less experienced PC users/photographers may prefer Adobe Elements 6.0 (a cut down version of Photoshop Extended), which is pretty powerful in it's own right - plus student versions of the combined Adobe Elements 6.0 (photos) & Adobe Premiere 4.0 (video) packages are avaiable as cheap student licences as well. Plus there's the powerful Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 10 that comes in at a few pounds more than Elements 6.0 and, although aimed at professional photographers on a budget, it is ideal for anyone with an expensive digital camera. Photoshop is XP/Vista only though and you must meet the minimum Adobe hardware spec or the software won't install. For details of Photoshop extended see adobe.com. So a great way to obtain a full version of Photoshop at a considerable discount.
