Az Adobe Creative Cloud 5 évvel az indulását követően már több mint 10 millió előfizetővel rendelkezik, még a cég saját elvárásait is jelentősen felülmúlva. Ennek elllenére időről-időre rengeteg tévhit merül fel, amelyeket néhányan hajlamosak is elhinni. Az alábbiakban megpróbáljuk bemutatni és eloszlatni a 10 legyakoribb tévhittel kapcsolatos dolgokat, amelyeket a Creative Cloud-dal kapcsolatban halottunk.
Tévhit #1: “‘A Creative Cloud kifejezés’ felhő alapú tárhelynek hangzik – melynek segítségével fájlokat lehet tárolni, nekem pedig már van ehhez hasonló, mégpedig a Dropbox, ami teljesen ingyenes.”
Néhányan azt mondják, hogy a név megtévesztő – a Creative Cloud valójában kreatív eszközök és szolgáltatások gyűjteménye amelyek tartalmazzák az asztali programok legújabb 2018-as verzióit, többek között a Photoshopot, Illustratort, InDesign-t, Premiere-t, After Effects-et, Acrobatot, Animate-t, Muse-t és még számos egyéb dolgot. Ezen kívül kapunk 20-200 gigabyte közötti online tárhelyet, ahol megoszthatjuk és szinkronizálhatjuk fájljainkat, de ez csak egy része a szolgáltatás előnyeinek.
Tévhit #2: “Nem akarok állandóan az Internethez csatlakozni programok indításához és futtatásához; mi történik, ha éppen repülőn tartózkodom?”
Nem szükséges állandó internet kapcsolat. A CC alkalmazások telepítése után az online hozzáférés ellenőrzéséhez 4 havonta egyszer kötelező bejelentkezni a felhasználói fiókunkba. Szükség esetén, olyan esetekben, ha várhatóan hosszabb ideig nem lesz internet kapcsolat a közelünkben – például 6 hónapos utazás esetén web hozzáférés nélkül… - lépjünk kapcsolatba az Ügyfélszolgálattal.
Tévhit #3: “Az alkalmazások nem futhatók gyorsan egy böngészőben – például a Photoshop futtatás a weben kersztül nagyon lassú lesz.”
A fent említett eszközök egyike sem webalapú változatok. Ezek az eredeti asztali termékek, amelyeket letöltünk és közvetlenül telepítünk a számítógépünkre, és a szokásos módon működnek – ezek nem webalapú alkalmazások, CC programjaink, mint például az Adobe Photoshop CC, a hagyományos módon fognak futni.
Tévhit #4: “Az előfizetéses modell lehet, hogy sokkal drágább lesz az előző örökérvényű licenszeléshez képest, lehet, hogy nem éri meg?”
When you add up the price tags of all the individual products you can use in the Creative Cloud, the total value is over US$10,000. The Master Suite by itself historically sold for $2,600, and that’s just part of what you get with the much newer CC 2018 release… All ongoing upgrades are included, as well as free professional training. You can access these leading products for $9-$49 a month, one year at a time, so CC’s upfront cost is far less than CS6. And you can install and run the apps on up to two of your computers (including both PC and Mac).
Tévhit #5: “So I can have the entire latest Master Collection and more for $1-2/day, and do anything with it – it must be too good to be true, no?”
There’s no catch. It works exactly as described; you can imagine and create without boundaries using all of the world’s best tools for photo, image, video, audio, graphics, illustration, web, print, mobile, publishing, gaming, animation, development and design. As one prominent customerrecently said, “As someone who’s been using Creative Cloud now for a little over five years, I can tell you that this is the best service that Adobe has ever offered, and I would never switch back to a perpetual license even if I was given the option.”
Tévhit #6: “Well, then Adobe is going to entice everyone to the Cloud – and once we are all hooked, they are going to jack up the prices.”
Adobe has offered subscription-based creative products for over a decade, and over that time their prices have only fallen, never risen… You’ve got elasticity of the demand curve – the lower the monthly rate, the more people sign up, the greater the cost is spread out, and repeat. It’s a virtuous cycle in our view – and if anything, no guarantees but we think prices will continue to drop as the Cloud grows… The most recent evidence (and price cut) is Adobe’s introduction of a $9.99/month plan. The bottom line is raising to unaffordable rates would be counterproductive. But if you’re still worried, then you can always choose to lock in your pricing in advance.

Tévhit #7: “If my friend or client or colleague isn’t a Creative Cloud member, I can’t share my files with them.” …or… “But I don’t want to share all my work publicly/online.”
If you’re concerned about sharing files with people using older versions of the CS tools, check out our CC File Compatibility Guide. And using the cloud storage is not required. For any files you choose to store online in Adobe’s Cloud, you can easily set different levels of sharing – from keeping them completely private to sharing them publicly with anyone at all. Viewers will be able to do many things like see thumbnails and larger previews, change layer states of PSD files, step through Illustrator artboards and InDesign and PDF pages, and see file metadata all from within their browsers [watch video demo here]. But you can also keep your files entirely offline on your local disk as normal, because saving a copy to the online Cloud storage is completely optional.
Tévhit #8: “The Creative Cloud isn’t free (is it?), so if I leave then I will lose all my files.”
No worries – there is a totally free (for life) level of Creative Cloud membership which gives over a dozen terrific benefits including free products & services, that anyone can sign up for… If you cancel a paid membership then you’ll have a 90-day grace period bring any cloud storage down to the size of 2GB free (or can buy additional storage separately if you like). You probably also saved your files locally on your computer as well, before sharing online.
Tévhit #9: “Even if I only use one or two applications, I have no choice but to buy the complete Creative Cloud membership, right?”
No, this is false. Just like it was with the previous suites and point products, you still have the option to buy either the discounted bundle of everything or just a single program if you prefer. If you only want to use an individual tool or two, then you can sign up for a Single-App Membership at a lower price ($9-19). For example, Adobe offers a special Photography Plan worldwide that gives both Photoshop CC + Lightroom CC (the full desktop and mobile releases) for $9.99 a month.
Tévhit #10: “With the Cloud you can’t ever stay on or run previous versions if you want to, you are always forced to update to the latest release, right? I might not always be ready to do that, plus some plug-ins might not yet work with the newer version.”
No, in fact it’s optional – and your call. Creative Cloud makes updates available for those who want to install them, but the application manager will not automatically update your systemwithout your go-ahead… You can continue using the versions you have already downloaded, and then choose if and when to install the new releases, whenever is convenient and best for you. On average for each CC tool, the pacing of available upgrades has been every 3-4 months. And IT administrators can use the new Creative Cloud Packager utility to fully control all aspects of deployment on any group of computers.
