Adobe CLP Program Details

 A flexible volume licensing program, the Adobe Open Options Contractual License Program (CLP) simplifies software administration through a single licensing agreement. By participating in the CLP, you get the benefit of a large-purchase discount, but you have the option to spread your license fees-and thus your expenditures- over the duration of the agreement. Open to schools world wide, the Adobe Open Options CLP covers most Adobe products and allows you to mix and match products to reach the 1,000-point minimum.

 FLEXIBLE VOLUME PURCHASING
To participate in the Adobe CLP, you simply complete a two-year projection of your software needs. You are eligible to participate in the CLP if your projected needs equal or exceed 1,000 points. Each product is worth either one or two points. You receive the same number of points for acquiring a new license for an Adobe product, upgrading an older Adobe product to the latest version, or enrolling a previously licensed Adobe product (latest version only) in the Maintenance program. Within the terms of the agreement, you can schedule your licenses however you choose as long as you accrue 10 percent of the projected points within 30 days of the agreement's start date and 40 percent of the projected points within 12 months of the agreement's start date. Because your discount is based on projected licensed quantities over the term of the agreement, you receive the same discount on all orders-even for quantities as few as one license.

 MAINTENANCE OPTIONS
The Maintenance program keeps your software investment current by continuously upgrading covered products for the duration of your CLP agreement. The cost of enrolling a license in the Maintenance program is pro-rated to end when the agreement ends, and an annual payment option is available. Enroll any new or upgraded licenses, current version shrink wrapped products, or original equipment manufacturer (OEM) licenses in the Maintenance program, and use points that you accrue through Maintenance program enrollment to reach the 1,000-point minimum.
