The silnce is deafening from Adobe.

 

Global pandemic. Heavy repurcussions on thousands of freelance designers, photographers etc. And not a single word from Adobe.

 

I'd expect a business that practically prints money to offer relief to members. But no, money means more than lives. 

 

And please do point me in the right deirection of I have missed something.

    Thanks Peru Bob for moving to a more sensible space.

     

    As for the topic-specific feedback above ... it has zero bearing and zero relevance to thousdands of freelance folks using the Adobe CC service.

     

    Hundreds of large companies (and banks, for that matter) have offered relief to their clients/subscribers/members. Not Adobe.

    Adobe is providing "free" access to its Creative Cloud apps only if you are in education as a teacher or student. For institutions that give students access to Creative Cloud apps through on-campus computer labs, Adobe is enabling those students to work remotely for 60 days through a temporary "at home" access. This has to be set up through the school.

    Adobe is also providing free 90-day trials/access to Connect, which is their web conferencing service. This is available to individuals and businesses and educational institutions. The trial limits the number of people who can participate in a web conference.

    Be very careful to read the license agreements and any information on terms before accepting the license. It is your responsibility to cancel the trial before it ends if you do not intend to subscribe. Adobe automatically starts billing you once the trial ends, and Adobe also automatically rolls subscriptions over each year. Most subscription plans have an introductory pricing that is only good for the first year; the price will increase after the end of that year.
