While Adobe raises prices, we’re giving designers a better, more affordable choice

Written by: Melanie Hyde, Product Marketing Manager

Adobe is rolling out a new Creative Cloud Pro Plan with a higher price tag - and many long-time users aren’t happy. While the Pro plan adds some new capabilities, the core tools remain largely the same. What’s really changed? The cost.

We believe great design shouldn’t come at a premium – or features you’ll never use. That’s why CorelDRAW Graphics Suite gives you everything you need for professional design – at a lower price. If you're looking for a more affordable alternative to Adobe for graphic design, now’s the perfect time to switch to a solution that puts you in control with powerful tools and flexible pricing.

Why pay more for more of the same?

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite includes everything you need for professional graphic design: vector illustration, photo editing, layout, typography, and more. Unlike Adobe’s new Creative Cloud Pro and Standard subscriptions, we give you the freedom to choose a pricing model that fits your workflow and your budget. Subscribe or buy it outright—your choice!

Why more Adobe users are switching to CorelDRAW Graphics Suite:

  • More affordable: Get professional graphic design tools for a fraction of the cost of subscribing to Adobe Creative Cloud Pro.
  • Flexible pricing: Choose a subscription—or own your software outright. Your tools, your terms.
  • Familiar workspaces: Illustrator and Photoshop-style workspaces make switching easy.
  • Integrated Pantone® support: Full access to Pantone color libraries, with no extra subscriptions or hidden fees.
  • All-in-one design and layout: Design and layout in one app - no more jumping between Illustrator and InDesign.
  • Free 15-day trial with no credit card required: Try it risk-free, with no surprise charges.
  • And more: see how we compare
