Re: Adobe CC Individual Plan Licensing

I'm bumping this thread because I have a relevant problem. I'm getting a bunch of pressure from an Adobe customer services rep (I assume from an overseas location) to change the individual CC licenses we have at our small sign company to more expensive teams licenses. At first we had only one CC license that I used on my workstation. Then one was added to my co-worker's PC some time later. We both use our individual licenses on our work desktop computers and personal computers at home (when we have to take work home or just want to practice and learn). We added a 3rd license more recently on a production computer that other shop people can use. That third license is "on the bubble" for being discontinued though. Our company is not a big firm; we have less than 20 employees and most are fabricators or install/service people. We're paying $54.99 for our licenses. This person from Adobe is offering a price break from the $84.99 rate for teams licenses, but it's still a good bit above the current price we're paying. Teams has some advantages, but I don't use a lot of cloud storage services. And that's really the main thing Teams offers. I don't want to have to pay for something I'm not going to use very much. This rep seems to be implying we have no choice but to change our individual licenses over to teams. I wanted to see what others say here.

    Don't forget that CC licenses ARE NOT FOR SHARING. If 20 people might use Adobe apps on a single workstation, you need 20 licenses. (Teams does not change this).  Also, if a person leaves you have NO rights to cancel or change or transfer the account; it's a nice gift to the departing or sacked employee. (Teams DOES greatly improve this, and so is worth considering).
