WHAT'S HAPPENING

Creative Cloud Device (CCDA) for Government in CLP price change coming February 1

As of February 1, 2020, pricing for CCDA in CLP is increasing. The most recently published regional price list contains specific pricing details.

Per standard practices, Adobe is not planning to notify customers of this change, and we recommend that reseller partners work directly with their customers to transition them to Adobe’s standardized named user licensing. Please remind your customers that we are no longer issuing serial numbers. Eventually, perpetual products will become obsolete and will no longer be supported. End of support dates for products and technical support can be accessed on Adobe's Help Center.

With named user licensing, customers get access to the latest products and services as well as a more modern and dynamic user experience. Named user licensing also eliminates issues with invalid or expired serial numbers, enables users to access services that complement the product they are licensing, and helps customers get the full value of the purchased products as well as proven improvements in productivity, agility, and time to market.  

However, if you have customers who cannot transition to named user licensing due to login restrictions, they can continue to purchase CCDA on an ongoing basis at the new price.

Admin Console Sandbox for Value Incentive Plan (VIP)

The Admin Console is a single interface that gives admins one place to log in and manage their users and licenses. Use this sandbox to see what VIP admins will have access to, but keep in mind that demo accounts can have some limitations because engineering priority is placed on the production version. This specific sandbox has a mix of team and enterprise offerings, so you can see the different features (like provisioning by user group) side by side. If you wish to share this sandbox with a customer, please do so by sharing your screen and guiding them. But please don't share this link for independent use.
