$49/month for all of Adobe creative cloud including Photoshop and Illustrator, or for one isometric diagram tool.
- whorleater 11y agoPhotoshop and Illustrator are definitely not direct comparisons, that's like saying you can spend $100/year on Microsoft Word or you could just use nano for free.
- lowbloodsugar 11y agoIf the free version of nano only let you work on documents up to a certain, fairly limited size, and there was a paid version of nano for $100 that removed this limitation, then your analogy would hold.
- Rezo 11y agoYou can use Cloudcraft for free and create exactly the same type of diagrams as with the paid plans, for as long as you like. There's no watermarks, missing components, etc. If it saves you time and money, or you think the additional features add value, you could consider subscribing. But it's fine if you don't.
- CharlesW 11y ago> But it's fine if you don't. But many of us would like to, though. Obviously you wouldn't want to take $9/month from people who would gladly give you $49. But on the other hand, active customers paying $9/month seem infinitely more valuable than free customers.
- lowbloodsugar 11y agoFree for tiny diagrams. I am a software architect working on AWS, and it was too small for the very first diagram I tried to create. I am their target market. The free version is no use to me. $49/month isn't worth it. Honestly, for $49/year I'd still hesitate because of usability issues.
