Creative Freedom with Adobe Creative Cloud’s Subscription Model
While the Adobe Creative Cloud subscription model was met with lots of resistance when it was first introduced a few years ago, most designers, photographers, videographers, and other creatives have since realized how amazing it actually is.
Prior to the Adobe Creative Cloud (CC) subscription model, one would need to purchase niche specific apps individually. These apps were rather expensive, so everyone couldn’t afford to purchase all of the apps they needed. Added to this, each time a new version of an app came out, the user would have to purchase the new app. Photographers, for example would need to purchase Lightroom and Photoshop separately to edit photos, whereas now, they can choose to pay a monthly subscription fee for each app or pay a higher monthly subscription, giving them access to all the apps Adobe CC has to offer. Needless to say, Adobe CC pricing is more far more affordable because users no longer need to purchase apps. By paying a monthly subscription, users will always have access to the latest versions of all the apps they subscribe to.
For those of you wondering what’s included in the Adobe Creative Cloud suite: You’ll get 20 Gigabytes of Cloud storage, access to Behance, all the tools that were contained in the Production Premium and Master Collection, along with Adobe Lightroom 5, Adobe Photoshop CC, Adobe InDesign CC, Adobe After Effects CC, Adobe Premiere Pro CC, Adobe Audition CC, Adobe Muse CC, Adobe Prelude CC, Adobe Dreamweaver CC, Adobe Edge Web Fonts, Adobe Illustrator CC, Adobe Digital Publishing Suite – Single Edition, Adobe Scout, Adobe Edge Inspect, Adobe Edge Animate, Adobe SpeedGrade CC, Adobe Flash Builder 4.7 Premium Edition, Adobe Edge Code preview, Adobe Fireworks CS6, Adobe Extension Manager, Adobe Flash Professional CC, ExtendScript Toolkit, Adobe Edge Reflow preview, along with many other tools and services.
Creatives can work on projects from anywhere in the world, from any desktop or mobile device, at any time – even if they don’t have their own computer or laptop with them, because it’s online and mobile friendly. This means you can start a project on your computer, continue working on it on your tablet or laptop and edit it from your mobile phone whenever ideas cross their minds. This is great for anyone in a creative field, because they’ll be able to incorporate their concepts and designs, no matter where they are or what they’re doing.
Being able to use the entire Adobe Creative Cloud suite means that creatives have the freedom to explore different creative niches and move from one creative field to another, should they wish. They can set new trends in the designing and editing niches and are only limited by their imagination.
