Adobe Open Options 4.5

Educational institutions can participate in volume software licensing through the following programs.

CLP

This flexible volume software licensing program provides larger organizations with increased discount levels based on the initial order amount. Covering most Adobe products, CLP is available worldwide to educational organizations with no further order commitment in the next two years. CLP simplifies software administration, reduces software costs, and delivers the best savings on deploying the most current versions of Adobe software across campus. See details, or contact an education reseller.

TLP

Educational institutions with smaller orders can still get the benefit of volume pricing with TLP. Gain discounts on new and upgrade licenses each time your order exceeds the minimum required points level. Volume licensing through TLP makes it easier for students, faculty, and staff to use the most current versions of Adobe products, including Adobe Creative Suite 2, Adobe Video Collection 2.5, and Adobe Acrobat® 7.0. See details, or contact an education reseller.

To calculate your discount level and points, view the Discount Level Calculator.

Upgrade Plan

No matter which Adobe Open Options 4.5 software licensing program you choose — CLP or TLP — Upgrade Plan makes it better. With Upgrade Plan, your educational institution is assured of access to all Adobe upgrades for the covered products during the life of your Upgrade Plan. This provides invaluable "technology insurance," allowing your students, faculty, and staff to work and learn using the latest technology. See details, or contact an education reseller.
