Adobe: What CS6 and Creative Cloud Mean for You

[froggyboy604]

Adobe made several announcements this week, much to the excitement of creative professionals. The company introduced Adobe Creative Suite 6 as well as its Creative Cloud.

As Heidi Voltmer, the Director of Product Marketing at Adobe, explained to WebProNews, the new CS6 includes 14 new products and 4 Creative Suite additions. She told us that Adobe focused on speed and performance, improving features in tools such as Photoshop, making sure that the content produced in CS6 is ready for devices, and updating the user interface.

In addition to CS6, Adobe also introduced Creative Cloud, which creates a hub for users to explore and share content through CS6 desktop applications. Creative Cloud runs on a membership basis that allows users to pay on an ongoing basis for access to the newest technology.

"It's not just like today, where you buy a single box and you don't see anything new from Adobe for 12-24 months," said Voltmer. "With the Creative Cloud, you actually get those updates on an ongoing basis."

Voltmer pointed out that these products allow Adobe not only to serve designers, but also the enterprise market.

Wow, who would of thought that you can now edit video, photos, make html websites, make flash sites, and do other things from within a web browser even on a older computer connected to the internet, so you can create content on any internet connected computer without the need for a super fast, and powerful PC like editing photos, videos, and photos offline on a super high end computer, but use the power of the Adobe Cloud to create high quality content from within a web browser.

The online storage for your projects on Adobe Creative Cloud is also pretty great for online backup and hosting.

This sounds good for people who have a older computer, slow laptops, or use a less popular operating system without many creative suites like Linux, Unix, etc.
