Great product - terrible upgrade policy; worse customer service Feb 20, 2009
By D. Masters
"dwm55"
I haven't had more than a fleeting look at Photoshop CS4 at this point. From my long experience with Photoshop, I can say that it has met every expectation I've had. If allowed to give a rating each for product and support, I would give the product four stars, and support two stars at best.
I'm one of those people that switched from Windows to a Mac early last year. When I called Adobe and inquired about moving my software license to Mac, I was told at the time that although they would not transfer the license, I could do this at any upgrade. I was disappointed, but it seemed a reasonable policy. When I purchased my Photoshop CS4 upgrade and attempted to install it, I was surprised that it wouldn't accept the Windows based Photoshop CS2 serial number. I contacted Adobe customer support and discussed the problem, I was told that Adobe would exchange the old Windows serial number for a Mac serial number if I gave them the original Photoshop full release serial number (not a serial number from an upgrade). The trouble was that my original purchase of Photoshop was around version 3 (CS4 is version 11), and the earliest materials I could find started at version 5.5. The original software was pitched years ago, as Adobe's policy is to allow upgrades within the same operating system with any previous serial number, full or upgrade.
Things went downhill from there; I was transferred between, customer service, sales, and technical support multiple times. Around the fifth time I was transferred to customer service, I asked to talk to a supervisor who although understanding, told me that there was nothing I could do but return the software to Amazon and get a refund (the software package had been opened, so I knew Amazon wouldn't accept it).
In desperation, I called the Adobe corporate office and talked to their operator about the experience I had. She referred me to their customer service escalation team. When she transferred me, I was sent right back to the customer service group I had been dealing with all day. I later discovered that my call was transferred about the time the escalation team quit for the day and that my call had rolled to the regular customer service group.
When I finally did talk to someone from the escalation team, they were very helpful. The CS rep took my information and forwarded it to another group for approval. Two days later, I received a new serial number which when entered, does not require a serial number from a previous Mac release. Adobe did finally provide an acceptable resolution to the problem. My issue with them is that a badly thought out policy prevented a smooth upgrade by a long time customer. Additionally, Adobe's customer service appears to be poorly trained as to how to resolve cross platform licensing issues, and what escalation procedures are available to Adobe's customers.

 Photoshop is still the best, improvements are beneath the surface Dec 08, 2008
By DigitalMan
"DMAN"
Since I already owned CS3 I got this for the upgrade price, otherwise I would not have purchased. The most notable improvement is in performance when it is loading multiple large RAW files. It is definitely faster. I like the tabbed interface a little better as well. This is not, by any means, a necessary upgrade, but for me the performance boost alone made this well worth while.

A Lot of Money for relatively little gain Nov 29, 2008
By Mark B. Anstendig
Works fine.
But a lot of money for what one gets.
many old features that are still there were simply automated a way that is not so much better and needs a big learning curve. And that is called a big advance.
I just use it like my previous version.
One good thing: choose actual pixels in the pull down menu and it auto-resizes the diolog box to fit. But that should have been there to begin with.

Unnecessary upgrade Apr 25, 2009
By phOtOcat
"S"
I'm a photographer who uses Photoshop all the time. I wish I listened to others who said not to upgrade. CS4 provides very few new features useful to me and some navigational changes that took time to get used to.
Photoshop is great. CS4 upgrade is not.

 Stay away from Adobe! Jan 12, 2009
By T. Bull
Had to return this because Adobe will NOT allow their loyal customers to upgrade only part of a suite. I have the Full Creative Suite but didn't find this new version compelling enough to spend the $600.00 for the whole upgrade. I though it would be nice to at least be current with Photoshop and get the rest of the suite when the 64 bit version is finally released... WRONG... it's the whole suite or nothing!
I am actively pursuing alternatives to Photoshop, at which time I will no longer be one of their customers. Aperture with plug ins is getting pretty close for most of the work I do... so it's goodbye Adobe! I strongly suggest that anyone who can make the change do it! They won't change as long as they perceive their monopoly is unbreakable...
Good customer service shouldn't be so hard to find... We need to reward those who give good service and abandon those who don't.
