And I don't like that Adobe Technical Communication Suite is hardly innovative and costs so much, yet is developed in India I guess, because the Lead Project Manager for it is located there.
Now let's try to replace Adobe CC with other stuff! Besides, Adobe stuff is too expensive!
I've already moved on when they went to subscription only. 40 workstations used to have Adobe Acrobat Pro. Now 39 of them have Foxit. I still have the only copy of Pro because there is one thing it can do that Foxit cannot.
Adobe is definitely among the list of companies I've abandoned.
For me, it had a lot more to do with it being a serious headache to manage. I have to roll out an update for all adobe software (Flash, Reader, Shockwave, AIR) probably once a week or every other week to fix the next batch of critical vulnerabilities. It's just not worth the time to keep it.
I recently learned that the Adobe Technical Suite Manager is in India. And I have been following Robohelp from versions 7 to 11, and it hardly improved between editions.
One major reason why the American economy is **** is because of extreme outsourcing, ok... And Obama was terrible for the economy.
I have Adobe Technical Communications Suite 2015, and Adobe CC subscription. Yikes that was costly. Adobe CC should be like $30 / month to be more affordable to the common man.
Is it really subscription based now, so you basically have to keep paying for it for life? I am finding more critical software going this route and it is soon going to become a full time job either keeping up with the software or trying to find alternatives that have the functionality I need or even more time trying to develop something from scratch.
Seems high time for some govt intervention on the subscription issue, if I want to straight up buy a piece of software and run it on an isolated computer I should be able to do so. If I want some new updated feature I can go buy a new disk.
Businesses need to start writing their representatives.
Yes, it is 100% subscription based. No, we do not need to write our representatives. We need to do what we've always done: speak with our dollars. I don't care where it's based or any of that. However, American based Foxit has made over $2,000 on my firm in the past 3 years. And I recommend it any chance I get. The market will speak. Adobe got too big for its britches to coin an old phrase.
You're kidding of course. Either that or detached from reality, like the rest of your rant.
The picture isn't kidding... Don't believe everything the Gov tells you... But now, I am trusting TRUMP to fix things.... HE DA MAN!!!
