Confusion about Cloud Complete/Should I uninstall CS6?

Report · Apr 29, 2014

Hello,

So we have just subscribed to Cloud Complete for teams, and one of my users currently has CS6 Masters Collection installed on his Windows 8 laptop, should we install Cloud Complete and keep CS6? CS6 subscription has expired and we don't really want to have two versions on one Computer so essentially I guess what I'm trying to ask is what are the differences and what is the best way forward - will we lose applications that are specific to CS6 that aren't in the Cloud? In addition to this I can't seem to find Acrobat in the drop down menu on the Admin Portal on Cloud Complete, is this included as well? He also still has CS6 documents - will he be able to open them using Cloud Complete Products? I am confused as to the differences between the two. Is Cloud Complete essentially like an upgrade to CS6...

Regards,

Michael

HI Michael,

Thanks for your detailed query .

This is solely upto you if you wish to keep the CS6 and CC together as thats not going to hurt the functionality of the machine . Since the end user will be a part of the Creative Cloud for Teams , this would mean they can use both the CS6 & CC as a part of the subscription . There are some products that are not a part of CC such as Encore and if you wish to use Encore, I would suggest using the CS6 version of Adobe products or Master Collection only.

For the files, the Cs6 files can be opened up in CC version of the products . And also , Acrobat is a part of the CCT and the latest version should be available for you .

Cheers,

Thanks Kartikay - that was useful to know, is it also possible to just download Acrobat only from the CCT - or would I have to buy that separately? I've got a user who needs Acrobat only.
