A prototyping weapon that proves to be invaluable.

What are the best aspects of this product?

I can understand and acknowledge how Adobe After Effects can be a robust tool. I barely scratch the surface when it comes to using it as a UX professional. Animations and video editing are exceptional. I make use of After Effects for defining UX choreography for a certain experience.

What aspects are problematic or could work better?

The sizes of files can be a lot biger to be tenable in a typical office setup. Since such videos can frequently sent over to client or included in presentations or posted over the internet, file size is essential. After Effects is capable of rendering some large files. Even more so for shorter animations.

What specific problems in your company were solved by this product?

My primary business issue is trying to visually interact how an experience can move to developers who may not speak the same language that I'm speaking. With JQuery, HTML, and CSS becoming powerful, defining UX choreography is critical as it's part of the design process. Prototyping tools can be limited in terms of animation and movement for replication. Through After Effects, there are zero restrictions.
