do i need adobe application manager to run apps?

I have recently purchased a new mac book (am new to mac), and have downloaded adobe creative cloud and installed the programmes I use, photoshop lightroom, bridge.  I seem to have also downloaded adobe application manager and am wondering if I need this to run creative cloud and the above programmes?  Or can I delete this form computer?  Currently there is a fodler within applications in the Finder menu called adobe applicaiton manager and I don't know whether to felte this folder?  There is also an icon for applciation manger in my launchpad.  Don't want to clutter up my new computer if I don't need this.
