Easiest way to keep offline users updated?

Hi!

We got 5 users working with Adobe CC in our company. Since our internet connection doesn't allow us to all have them do online updates, we'd like to download the updates at night and distribute them to the users when they're not logged in on their computers.

We got a software distribution running, so my question is, where can I get real offline updaters to all the CC applications? Is there an all-in-on updater for all applications?

    Hi,

    You can build an 'offline' update package using the Creative Cloud Packager.

    I didn't read the whole text but it seems it's only for "Adobe for teams" accounts available:

    We actually have "Adobe for teams".

    If I understand the manual of the remote update manager correctly, then it can just be used with either the online update server or an AUSST. Online updates is what I don't want to use and the AUSST is so terribly designed that it just replicates the whole Adobe online update server, which is an enormous waste of space and traffic. (correct me if I'm wrong)

    What I want to do is. Download the updates manually for the products I need and deploy them afterwards.

    When I update the Acrobat 11 Pro, I go to the Adobe FTP server, download the latest .msi and use our software distribution system to deploy it. Isn't that possible with CC?
