Adobe Systems Incorporated officially announced four new Creative Suite 6 editions on Monday, in addition to the company’s long-awaited Creative Cloud, which includes not only everything CS6 has to offer but a variety of other cloud-based services, all for one low monthly fee.
Available within 30 days with preorders starting today, Adobe Creative Suite 6 has been streamlined into four editions: Design & Web Premium (previously offered as separate packages), Design Standard, Production Premium and Master Collection, which includes pretty much everything but the kitchen sink.
In addition to the all-new Photoshop CS6 which has been in public beta for several weeks, CS6 includes major upgrades to Illustrator CS6 and InDesign CS6 as well as a brand-new application, Adobe Muse, which allows designers to create and publish HTML5 websites without writing code. Web creation applications Dreamweaver CS6 and Flash Professional CS6 also see major improvements, and video professionals will also get plenty of new features with Premiere Pro CS6, After Effects CS6 and the new Prelude CS6 and SpeedGrade applications.
Perhaps even bigger than CS6 itself is the official announcement of Creative Cloud, Adobe’s new $49.99 per month subscription offering which not only includes all of the CS6 applications for Mac, iOS and Android but also new apps yet to come and all future upgrades for members with an active subscription. It’s a radical new approach for Adobe, who continues to offer traditional boxed and downloadable copies of its CS6 software as well.
Adobe Creative Cloud includes 20GB of cloud storage in addition to the Adobe Creative Cloud Connection software to allow syncing, sharing and storing of files across both mobile devices and desktop computers.
Adobe Creative Suite 6 and Adobe Creative Cloud will be available within 30 days, but preorders are available for both products starting on Monday. If you are a previous user of CS3, CS4, CS5 or CS5.5, Adobe is offering a special introductory offer on a Creative Cloud subscription for $29.99 per month -- a $20 per month savings for the first year (month-to-month options are also available at a higher price).
