  • Adobe Acknowledges Concerns Over Move to Creative Cloud

    That said, through dis­cus­sions with the com­mu­ni­ty, we have heard some con­cerns around our move to Creative Cloud. Three main themes are com­ing through:

    File access. Customers want to be sure that, if their mem­ber­ship to Creative Cloud laps­es, they will still have access to their files.
    Photographers, par­tic­u­lar­ly photo-enthusiasts, are look­ing for a more tai­lored offer­ing that focus­es on their par­tic­u­lar needs.
    Some cus­tomers are not con­vinced that Creative Cloud is right for them and would rather con­tin­ue to pur­chase desk­top appli­ca­tions as before.
    We want to start off by rein­forc­ing that we con­tin­ue to believe that the move to Creative Cloud will ben­e­fit the wider cre­ative com­mu­ni­ty because of the con­stant stream of inno­va­tion that we’re able to deliv­er. Creative Cloud also allows us to explore new areas in mobile apps, help­ing you col­lab­o­rate bet­ter and build a mean­ing­ful world­wide com­mu­ni­ty to share work and find inspi­ra­tion. Because of this we have no plans to change our focus on Creative Cloud. We under­stand this is a big change and for cus­tomers who are not yet ready to move, we will con­tin­ue to offer CS6 prod­ucts through our reseller part­ners and Adobe​.com.
