Adobe Education Term Site License for Acrobat Pro
The Adobe Education Term Site License (TSL) combines software licensing and maintenance into an annual subscription program, allowing participants to keep the selected products and applications updated. To license on a subscription basis means that the right to run the product is non-perpetual and continues on during the licensed period. If a department decides not to renew and/or The University of Alabama elects to terminate the TSL, each department must provide evidence that all software obtained under the agreement has been removed from every computer in the department. Orders are placed annually based on the number of full-time equivalent employees (student employees are not included) in each participating department. For counting purposes, a department is defined as a Banner Organization. Any new faculty or staff added to a participating department are licensed to use the products on the covered computers during the license period. Each license period runs from May 14 through May 13 of each year, with the renewal process completed by March 31.
Included Software
Currently, only Acrobat Professional is offered on the TSL.
Perpetual stand-alone licenses for Adobe Acrobat Pro and other Adobe products can be purchased through the Cumulative Licensing Program at reduced prices. This pricing is available to all campus departments and products are ordered through normal purchasing channels from the Adobe reseller specified on the Purchasing Web site.
Eligible Computers
All University-owned computers in participating departments are included in the license agreement, including faculty and staff office computers and lab computers. If your department would like to join the agreement, please contact the Software Licensing department of OIT at software.licensing@ua.edu. Departments can only be added during the annual license renewal. The license period runs from May 14 through May 13 of each year, with the renewal process completed by March 31.
Student-owned machines are not covered under the agreement.
