WHAT'S HAPPENING
Introducing Adobe Sign in VIP
Adobe Sign is now available through the Adobe Value Incentive Plan (VIP), which means businesses of all sizes can license Adobe Sign using the same flexible buying program as Acrobat DC and Creative Cloud.
Through the VIP buying program, customers can purchase named-user licenses as they need them, deploy them immediately, add or re-assign them as their business needs change, and manage Adobe Sign licenses along with all their other VIP licenses through the same Adobe Admin Console. Adobe Sign is available in two plans: Adobe Sign for business and Adobe Sign for enterprise.

Acrobat DC news: Acrobat integration for Google Drive & end of support for Acrobat 2015 (perpetual)
Now there are two more reasons for Acrobat customers to migrate to subscription.
Over 1 billion individual users and millions of companies use Google Drive. With the new Adobe Acrobat integration for Google Drive, anyone can view, search, and annotate PDFs for free without leaving Google Drive. Acrobat DC subscribers get additional value via access to paid features (create, export, combine, and organize PDFs; and send documents for signature) now available inside Google Drive.
There’s also an immediate opportunity to upgrade and migrate customers who are still using Adobe Acrobat 2015 (perpetual). Acrobat 2015 support ends soon, which means security updates and technical support for Acrobat DC 2015 will no longer be available after April 7, 2020.
If you missed the live enablement sessions, here are some helpful resources:
- Watch the recording of the enablement session.
- Read the blog post on Google Drive integration for Acrobat DC.
- Download the Acrobat 2015 end of support campaign kit. (Note: Sign in with your Adobe Partner Connection login credentials to access this kit.)
