K-12 Adobe CC Pricing

[CSAcademy]

Hi,

Can Adobe change the pricing structure for K-12 shared device licenses to be comparable with name user licensing? Using the shared device licensing model can costs schools double the price of the named user model dependent on the students to computers ratio.

For example

If a school had 200 computers needing Adobe CC and 1200 students

Shared Device licensing will cost IRO £4200

Named user licensing will cost IRO £4900

however

If a school has 400 computers and 1200 students

Shared Device licensing will cost IRO £8400

Named user licensing will cost IRO £4800

Named user licenses cause too many issues in a school lab environment to be useful and therefore many K-12 schools cannot use it and benefit from this pricing structure.

The shared device license also doesn't include home use rights so students cannot benefit from this advantage of the named user model.

Thanks.

Thanks Axel Matt. The question was more to prompt a general discussion about k-12 pricing models rather than a specific pricing query. I had assumed that Adobe representatives might read these posts and reply on this forum but apologies if this is not the case.

You can kick off the discussion here, but you will hardly find Adobe staff discussing this, except when there is somewhere a document that can be pointed too.

I find your numbers interesting. Are those monthly payments or yearly?

[CSAcademy]

These are approximate yearly figures.

I will email an Adobe rep directly about this pricing model query but I will leave the post up so that others can consider and comment if this is OK with the forum admins.

I'm sure there are many other K-12 schools who would like the reliability of shared device licensing in the school lab environment but who would prefer the pricing and home use functionality of the named user licensing model.

All posts stay! That's OK and in no case a problem. Only posts that get deleted are spam and insulting or hate speech. This here is neither one nor the other and contains useful information for a lot of Adobe's customers.
