jslate1980 Posted January 17, 2017 Posted January 17, 2017 Hi As Serif are moving down the Affinity route and discontinuing WebPlus and MoviePlus products, what are schools now using for web design and movie creation when moving to Windows 10? I don't think we could afford the new adobe cc licensing subscription service. Jon
timbo343 Posted January 17, 2017 Posted January 17, 2017 We still run serif on windows 10 and it runs ok. Not sure what we would move to. We do have power director for our media students who dont have any bother with it. As for web creator software, im sure our lot will try to get powerpoint to do that LOL! 1
Norbert Posted January 30, 2017 Posted January 30, 2017 Looks like we'll stick with Serif until it dies. We've considered the Adobe route (which would be my preferred option) but it is too expensive and Expression Studio is a bit complex for some of our year groups. Serif did ring me the other day to try and flog me their new software and I've told them exactly what I think of the direction they are going in - they were left in no doubt that there will be no point pursuing sales in this direction!

mjk Posted February 1, 2017 Posted February 1, 2017 The route that Serif have taken is spot on (single page apps that run in a browser). What they failed to appreciate is how much schools are willing to pay for this. They have completely misread the market. The quotation we had amounted to half our entire ICT budget - for one piece of software ??!?
