Using a business creative cloud account at home

Hi there. My first post here.

Briefly: for my company I've activated two creative cloud accounts which we are using daily on two distinct office pcs.

The question is: Am I allowed to download photoshop and lightroom on my home pc to be used  when the other two licenses are not in use? This would be a private use (editing pictures). Of course I'd use one of the two accounts already created.

Thanks in advance,

Max

Correct answer kglad

one license is for one person and that one person can use two activations.  one license cannot be shared (legally) by two people each using one activation.

 

a teams/enterprise license can be used for company work or for personal work.  adobe doesn't monitor that.  your company may feel differently and if you have any cloud files that adobe must adjudicate, the plan owner owns the files (as far as adobe is concerned).

in the future, to find the best place to post your message, use the list here, https://community.adobe.com/

p.s. i don't think the adobe website, and forums in particular, are easy to navigate, so don't spend a lot of time searching that forum list. do your best and we'll move the post (like this one has already been moved) if it helps you get responses.

you can reassign licenses when needed via your admin console.  https://helpx.adobe.com/enterprise/using/admin-console.html

Thanks for your reply but I don't get it. 

In other words: one license which allows me to have multiple installations but only two activations.

One in my office (used during business hours 08:00 AM  17:00 PM)

The second one at home on my home pc for personal use and used when my office pc is powered off.

Everything ok with license terms ?

thanks again

best regards

Max
