Lucky me. At work we fall into the last category circled in red.

Not really. But I also see in there...

"new members will benefit from current pricing and will not see any pricing adjustment until their contract renewal."

Guess we've had a contract renewal. Or multiple, I can't remember. Maybe it's time to make a call to Adobe and talk with their people about our contract and our options. :banghead:  And that is always fun. :sarcasm:

We know we're the only game in town so what choice do you have?

We are in their team VIP plan. No it doesn't stand for Very Important People. :D (Value Incentive Plan). For that we get 5% off the team price of $69.99 this past year and it goes to 10% off for the next two years when we renew in July. We pay annually so according to the info above their shouldn't be a price increase for us. I'll believe that when I see it though.

Well the above info is totally wrong.

We just got our new invoice order and they say ours is jumping up to $79.99 per month per user for the Team plan. We have 11 users which means we are going to have to pay $10,558.68 per year for the pleasure of using the Adobe products.

Or try something else. Has anyone ever heard of or used Lucidpress?

Sounds like you should sign up for 11 Individuals All Apps subscription...  at least that way you only pay $53/person/month -OR- $6996 for the pleasure...   #AdobeMath

Considering it very strongly. It is just a PITA to administer 11 separate accounts and have 11 separate monthly charges to the one credit card.

Actually you can get it for $49.99 per month if you pay for the whole year at a time.

Teams. $79.99 per user per month. That is what we are on now though we were paying a $65 per month per user for the past year. That is what is now going to $79.99 per month per user.

I have a feeling they won't even let you go back to the individual accounts if they get less money for them.

The whole pricing structure doesn't make sense. Individual accounts are more cumbersome to manage from their end also, so you should get a price break, not an increase. I guess it's a feature, not a bug.
