Whether you are watching TV or reading a magazine or browsing the internet or playing games on your smartphone, you will find it almost impossible to avoid anything that’s developed with Adobe software. Indeed, its Adobe tools that literally set the standards of digital media.
Right from the day of Photoshop’s release to this day, it’s Adobe that’s dominating the media creation market. And now, Adobe has come up with Creative Cloud, the most ambitious offer for every individual interested in designing. Adobe Creative Suite 6 is the latest and biggest collection of workflow apps, media design and production, targeting the most creative amateurs as well as professionals.
What Is Creative Cloud?
Creative Cloud is the first subscription-based offering by Adobe that allows the members to access the Adobe’s powerful applications available. In other words, with Creative Cloud, the users can use the vast library of tools available on Adobe’s software for a subscription fee.
Well, if you are someone like me, you would think it to be totally pointless. It’s because, you get access to the software library, even if you get Master Suite 6. And when it comes to cost, a Master Collection CS6 license will be valid forever, while for Creative Cloud, you would require a few dollars on a regular basis. And obviously, you will feel Master Collection to be the best option. But, that’s wrong.
Trust me, Creative Cloud is far better! It’s just a simple math that you need to understand. The Master Collection CS6 bundle costs around $2,599, while Creative Cloud subscription is going to cost less than $50 a month.
Theoretically, upgrading your Master Suite CS6 to Master Collection CS7 will cost you at least a minimum of $525 extra, that’s nearly $3,124. With this same $3,124, you can subscribe to Creative Cloud access for over 5 years. However, with Creative Cloud you get to access the up-to-date software, which is just impossible in Master Suite.
Now, is the math clear? So, it’s better to get started with Creative Cloud, Right?
