Our take

The Enhance Speech feature alone is worth bookmarking - it genuinely rescues recordings made in noisy or reverberant spaces in a way that used to require a professional audio engineer. As a full podcasting workflow though, Adobe Podcast is still fairly thin compared to Descript or Alitu. It is a feature inside Adobe's larger ecosystem more than a standalone product, and if you are not already paying for Creative Cloud, the value case gets murkier fast. Watch this space - Adobe tends to expand these tools significantly over 12-18 months.

Pros

Enhance Speech is free and genuinely impressive for cleaning up rough recordings
No software download required - entirely browser-based
Strong integration point for existing Adobe Creative Cloud users

Cons

Full feature set requires Creative Cloud subscription - not a standalone bargain
Narrower feature set than dedicated podcast tools like Descript or Alitu
Roadmap and pricing have shifted since launch, creating some uncertainty
