This allows it to focus its efforts on a single line of products, rather than trying to support both, in tandem. Paying to use Photoshop CC on an ad-hoc, on/off basis will cost more (though opening the option of only paying for the software when you need it).Īdobe says it will continue to support CS6 but will not be replacing it.
The cost of licensing just Photoshop CC over 18 months (the typical life-span of a version of Photoshop), is similar to the existing version-to-version upgrade prices, if you commit to a 24-month contract. This latest move ups the ante by making it the only option for future versions of the software.Īdobe is clearly concerned about alienating existing users and has set the pricing of its Creative Cloud products at a similar level to its existing software. Adobe has been trying to encourage users away from the traditional one-off payment licenses and on to a monthly payment model, with features such as online storage and syncing between devices.
Adobe has said it will no longer be developing its Creative Suite range of software, leaving its subscription and cloud-based Creative Cloud as the only way of accessing the latest version of Photoshop.
