If your business has two or more employees who need Adobe Creative Cloud, the Teams plan is the correct choice — not multiple Individual subscriptions. It gives you an admin console to manage licences, more cloud storage, shared brand assets and priority support.
This guide covers Adobe Creative Cloud for Teams pricing in India, what it includes, how to manage it as an administrator, and how to buy it through an authorised reseller with a GST invoice.

What Does Creative Cloud for Teams Include?
The Teams plan includes everything in the Individual All Apps plan, plus:
1. Admin Console
A web-based dashboard where your IT admin or operations manager can:
- Add new users and assign licences instantly
- Remove users and reassign their licences
- View how many licences are assigned and available
- Set storage policies and sharing permissions
- Download usage and licence reports
This eliminates the need to contact Adobe every time a team member joins or leaves.
2. 1 TB Storage Per User (Pooled)
Every user on the Teams plan gets 1 TB of Creative Cloud storage — compared to 100 GB on the Individual plan. The storage is pooled at the organisation level, so if some users use less, others can use more.
For design agencies and video production teams that store large project files, this storage difference is critical.
3. Centralised Creative Cloud Libraries
Teams plan users can share Creative Cloud Libraries across the organisation. This means:
- Brand colours, typography and logos stored in a shared Library
- Any team member can access brand assets directly inside Photoshop, Illustrator, Express or InDesign
- Changes to the Library update across all apps automatically
For agencies and marketing teams, this ensures brand consistency without sending asset files over email.
4. Share for Review
Share designs directly from Photoshop, Illustrator or XD for client or team review. Reviewers can comment without installing any Adobe app — just a browser link.
5. Extended Version History (180 Days)
Cloud documents retain 180 days of version history — compared to 60 days on Individual plans. Essential for agencies working on long-running client projects.
6. Priority 24/7 Technical Support
Teams plan users get priority access to Adobe's technical support team — including phone support in business hours and 24/7 chat support.
7. Adobe Express Premium for All Users
All team members get Adobe Express Premium, which includes the full template library, Firefly AI text effects, Brand Kit for team brand assets and the publishing scheduler.
Teams vs. Individual — Which Should You Choose?
| Feature | Individual | Teams |
|---|---|---|
| All 20+ CC Apps | ✅ | ✅ |
| Cloud Storage | 100 GB | 1 TB/user |
| Admin Console | ❌ | ✅ |
| Licence Management | Manual | Dashboard |
| Shared CC Libraries | ❌ | ✅ |
| Share for Review | Limited | Full |
| Version History | 60 days | 180 days |
| Technical Support | Standard | Priority 24/7 |
| Price (annual) | ~₹3,276/mo | ~₹5,810/user/mo |
The verdict: For any business with 2+ users, the Teams plan is the right choice. The admin console alone prevents the headache of managing individual accounts. The shared libraries and 1 TB storage make collaboration significantly smoother.
How to Buy Adobe Creative Cloud for Teams in India
Option 1: Through Adobe Direct
You can purchase directly from Adobe's website. However:
- Invoicing is in USD (unfavourable exchange rates)
- No INR billing or GST invoice by default
- Limited local support
Option 2: Through Cloudfy Systems (Authorised Reseller)
Cloudfy Systems is an authorised Adobe reseller in India. Benefits:

Setting Up the Adobe Admin Console
Once your Teams plan is activated through Cloudfy Systems, here is how to set it up:
Step 1: Access the Admin Console
Log in at adminconsole.adobe.com with your admin Adobe ID.
Step 2: Add Users
Go to Users → Add Users. Enter team members' email addresses. Each user receives an email to activate their Adobe account.
Step 3: Assign Products
Under Products, select Creative Cloud All Apps and assign it to each user. You can assign specific apps (e.g., only Acrobat Pro) to users who don't need the full suite.
Step 4: Set Up Creative Cloud Libraries
Once users are assigned, set up shared Libraries from within any CC app (e.g., Illustrator → Libraries panel → Create Team Library). Share brand colours, logos and assets with all team members.
Step 5: Configure Storage Policies
Under Settings, configure storage policies — decide whether users can store personal content or only work assets.
How Many Licences Do You Need?
Adobe Creative Cloud licences are per named user — each employee who needs access needs their own licence. Licences are not device-based or concurrent-user-based.
However, each licence allows installation on up to 2 devices — so an employee can have CC installed on their office desktop and their home laptop under a single licence.
Volume Discounts for Teams
For organisations purchasing 10 or more licences, additional volume discounts are available through Cloudfy Systems. Contact us with your team size for a custom quote.
For organisations with 100+ users, Adobe VIP (Value Incentive Plan) or Enterprise agreements provide further discounts, extended payment terms and custom deployment options.
FAQ
Is Adobe Creative Cloud for Teams more expensive than Individual? Yes. The Teams All Apps plan costs approximately ₹5,810/user/month on annual billing — compared to ~₹3,276/month for the Individual All Apps plan. The additional cost covers the admin console, 1 TB storage, shared Libraries, priority support and team collaboration features that businesses genuinely need.
Can I mix Teams and Individual plans in the same organisation? Technically yes, but it is not recommended. Mixing plan types creates inconsistent access levels and makes licence management harder. For businesses, a unified Teams plan is simpler to manage.
What happens if an employee leaves — can I reassign their licence? Yes. The admin can remove the departing employee's user account from the Admin Console and assign their licence to a new user. The licence transfer happens instantly.
Does the Teams plan include Adobe Stock? Adobe Stock is not included by default — it is available as a paid add-on. Some enterprise plans include a stock image allowance. Contact Cloudfy Systems for bundled pricing options.
Can I start with a small number of licences and add more later? Yes. You can start with as few as one licence on the Teams plan and add licences at any time. New licences are pro-rated for the remaining months of your annual term.
