Many design teams switch from Adobe to Figma + open-source tools and cut costs 60–70%.
Single App (Photoshop): $100–$125/month = $1,200–$1,500/year
Full Suite: $300–$360/month = $3,600–$4,320/year
Full Suite: $900–$1,080/month = $10,800–$12,960/year
Cost/person/year: $720–$864
Figma Pro: $10/person/month = $120/person/year
Total for 15 people: $1,800/year (85% cheaper than Adobe Full Suite)
Bundling lock-in. Most teams only use 3–5 apps (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign) but pay for the full 20+ app suite.
