The Affinity Suite does the same and they're still around, even though there's massive competition in Adobe CS competitors.

- jamil7 5y agoYeah good point, but I wonder if their products have a larger market and the price point is about double what this is going for. I also noticed they have an add-ons store, not sure if they take a cut there too?
- dgb23 5y agoThose are very different cases. The adobe suite is bloated, slow, overly complex... There is a very strong niche for a suite or single tools that have better design, performance, integration and UX. Jetbrains dev tools are highly praised just on their own and they have a strong plugin ecosystem (see: Cursive for Clojure). Also these kind of developer tools have to indirectly compete with highly extensible and well established open source alternatives such as Vim, Emacs, VSCode who all have their unique strengths and support tons of languages.
