Adobe After Effects Creative Cloud Reviews

Adobe has really stirred up the motion graphics community with their decision to stop offering the majority of their products as perpetual licenses switching instead to the Creative Cloud subscription service for their latest release.  So should you stick with your current version of After Effects or is the latest version going to suck you into the cloud with all the shiny new features.  We've rounded up some After Effects CC reviews to help you make that decision.

Creative Bloq

A hands on review of the new After Effects with a list of what they consider the top five new features in After Effects CC.   This  is a positive review that is good for someone considering After Effects or those looking to upgrade.  Also they have reviews of the other apps in Adobe's lineup.

"A must-have upgrade for anyone working in 3D. The integration with Cinema 4D is the standout feature here, speeding up workflow and reducing frustration massively, plus there are plenty of other cool features to get your teeth into if you're not working in 3D."

Quinlan

Here is first look from a creative director at Quinlan.   Not an extremely in depth review but just some highlights of the new features and "should I upgrade" overview.

"Adobe has successfully unleashed a seamless pipeline between your Cinema 4D scenes and AE Comps and renders those scenes without leaving After Effects."

There are not a ton of hands on reviews of Creative Cloud especially for After Effects, a lot of them seem to focus on Photoshop.   I am still running CS5.5 and haven't decided to upgrade quite yet but it's only a matter of time.  Hopefully reading these reviews will help you make the decision or you can hold off and make due with your current version.
