Illustrator and Photoshop Bundle?

Hello.

 

I am a graphic designer and I have a subscription for Adobe Illustrator. My wife (she is an artist) has a subscription for Adobe Photoshop. We both have different accounts that it's impossible to part with. I also need to use Photoshop pretty often, and I either have to use her own laptop or login and logout every time I need photoshop which is really inconvenient because I can't use both illustrator (from my account) and photoshop (from her account) at the same time. 
A. It is really frustrating that there is no option to be able share both apps within the same household while they are both paid.

B. I believe there should be a bundle price for Illustrator and Photoshop together. In this case, I would consider to have my own Photoshop. 

 

Anyone has to suggest a solution / idea?

    Hi @John Pan,

    We appreciate you voicing out your suggestion about having an option for a bundle package for two or more apps. We'll make sure it gets more eyes.

    Thank you,

    I am facing the same issue as well, I wish there is a "customized plan" could offer user to chooes 2 -4 softwares as they needed.
    Usually for drawing and design, they use ps and ai together the most. If they do publishing as well, IN also needed.
    But now, those bunbles are mostly for photography, which is so difficult for illustrator or graphic designer to get what they REALLY needed.
    Let's say we could get all apps with a good value, but we don't need it.
    Generally, Graphic designer and illustraor don't use AU AN AE LR and stuffs, which feels like being forced by geting something useless.
    I wish ADOBE Could offer good value and reasonable plan for different art industry.
    THANKS

      A customized plan is exactly what I want. I mainly use photoshop and illustrator at work, but if I could get Photoshop and Illustrator at a reasonable price for personal projects at home, I would absolutely pay for it. I mean I would even add After Effects on top because I want to explore more motion design stuff. But paying £22 a month for each software is way too expensive.
      There's alternative softwares, but I prefer adobe's layouts and features over any others.
      Unfortunately, Adobe love rinsing people of money, they're one of the stingiest companies I've ever encountered for licensing software.
      I make music in my spare time, I use FL Studio who have one time payments for their software and comes with lifetime updates. Ableton Live is also the same I think. But adobe just like to take as much as they can for as long they can.
      I'll never be a paying customer with their current pricing structure.

          it's actually illegal to share apps with anyone, even family members.

           

          as for an ai and ps bundle, the closest you can come to meaningfully suggesting this (to adobe) is to use the cc desktop ideas forum.
