Cost of Creative Cloud? [Topic fact checked for clarity]

Just so folks are aware, in the May 2024 Adobe financials, the company grossed 5.3 billion USD with a NET profit of $1.57 billion dollars, a 29% margin. Apparently that's not enough profit, so our monthly fees for creative cloud are increasing 100% ! Does anyone else wonder where all that money is going to go?

The CEO receives $44,000,000 per year in cash and equities, maybe that isn't enough, so those of us on

the using end need to double our expenditures to Adobe. And Adobe is buying back shares so the value of those top executives who own the bulk of the shares can increase their net worth. This, however, is just typical of the American Corporate Greed.

Sorry Folks, my error.

Yes, turns out that we were on an introductory plan at 29.99/mo. The $59 price

was a surprise. For a non-profit museum, paying that price for 3-4 users is

painful.

i don't know the cost for non-profits, but you should investigate, https://helpx.adobe.com/enterprise/using/non-profit.html

@Jim289

Which TikToker did you hear that from? 🤣

Subscription rates are NOT increasing 100%. Since Creative Cloud released in 2012, single user rates have only increased 2 times by USD $2. That's a far cry from 100%.

Perhaps you joined at a special 50% off introductory rate for first-time customers. After the 12 month introductory period ends, you are billed at the regular price as agreed upon.

Hope that helps.

our monthly fees for creative cloud are increasing 100%

Out of curiosity, where does that figure come from?

in the future, to find the best place to post your message, use the list here, https://community.adobe.com/

p.s. i don't think the adobe website, and forums in particular, are easy to navigate, so don't spend a lot of time searching that forum list. do your best and we'll move the post (like this one has already been moved) if it helps you get responses.
