Eduserv has reached an agreement with Adobe to offer its software products to charities with discounts of up to 40 per cent.

The Eduserv Adobe CLP agreement lasts until 24 July 2013 and offers UK registered charities perpetual licenses and maintenance for Adobe products including Acrobat, InDesign and Photoshop.

There is no requirement to commit to purchasing a certain amount, and as the number of subscribers to the scheme increases, so will the discounts.

Exact prices will depend on the product and the choice of reseller but a charity could obtain one copy of Adobe Creative Suite 5 Master Collection for £310 instead of £794.

To benefit from the scheme charities need to pay a participation fee to cover Eduserv’s administration costs, which will be £225 plus VAT until 31 August and £450 plus VAT thereafter.

In March, the not-for-profit IT services organisation renewed its agreement with Adobe which offers its products to education providers.
