Captivate 6 in Creative Cloud?

If Adobe is unwilling to add Captivate to the Creative Cloud offering, then how about offering a steep discount oaver the standalone subscription for Captivate to Creative Cloud subscribers? I would gladly pay another $5/mo. to add Captivate to the package but I will not be using it frequently enough to justify the full cost of an additional subscription.

Hello,

I was under impression that ALL the Adobe software is now available for 600 USD per year (3000 USD for 5 years).

What actions are required to implement an official request to Adobe Inc. with all of the above 200+ signatures to make Captivate available in Creative Suite?

p.s. The link David__B provided doesn't work.

So I just noticed the idea received so many votes (think it was over 700 last time I saw it) Adobe took it down.  Must be a great way to handle your customer requests.  If they all request a feature simply hide the evidence.

Interestingly Adobe no longer lets you purchase Captivate month to month either.  With all of the other products in Creative Cloud it is hard to see why this one is seperate.  Must be a solid revenue stream but seems odd that it would generate more revenue as a stand-alone than something like PhotoShop.

Another odd thing is that the eLearning Suite is no longer an option so if you are a school they must figure it is a good idea to milk you from two directions. 

What is most bothersome is the lack of comment on the topic (other than to remove the idea link above).  Come on Adobe at least have the courage to tell your customers you are not going to do what they have asked.

Hiya, I don't mind if its not captivate really, all I want is a screen recorder that will record in HD and capture system audio so I can make music tutorials.

Count me as a vote still though definitely!

This is definately a slap in the face for $50 a month.

I remember when LiveCycle was included with Acrobat9, then removed when 10 came out, turned into a pay item seperate from CC. Luckily I purchased CS6 before the CC change and was given a free copy of LC3. LC4 is still a pay item. My point is that they will not give Captivate a cc position because it just doesn't fit into the design section.

I would like Captivate, because I create tutorials for my companies software and make instruction clips for tech support.

I have added a feature request when CC first release asking for Captivate. No word yet.

It is absolutely essential that both Captivate and Presenter are included with the Creative Suite. For whatever reason Adobe sees these two as being for instructional design only (forget the fact that I see them as instructional development tools). The fact is that people in every single discipline: engineering, marketing, sales, medicine - could use Captivate to create highly interactive presentations, interactive tutorials and evaluations. I agree that instructional designers bring an art and science to what seems like point and click capture, but there is market potential for Adobe that should not be forgotten.

So everyone has voted yes on that thread (211 of us so far).  Has anyone seen any indication from Adobe that this is under serious consideration?

Please add your votes to the idea thread I created as well then, the more user feedback, the more likely we could get it implemented.
