We just had this discussion at my office. Our newsletter editor is using an Adobe subscription. Even for a nonprofit, the price is going up to $650/year.

The problem is that she has been using Adobe products since the mid 1980s. So to switch, she would have to relearn alternatives to Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, Acrobat, and a couple of other things that she has been using for more than 30 years.

We would have to inventory all the features she uses, and then make sure that whatever replacements she uses have the same capabilities. It just doesn't seem to be worth the time and frustration.
