Case Study: Accell North America achieves streamlined collaboration and a 50% reduction in license-management time with Adobe Photoshop

Accell North America, designing tomorrow’s biking trends

Accell North America, a leading North American bicycle distributor, needed to improve collaboration after merging brands that used separate servers and different versions of creative tools. The team wanted a way to share assets, capture inspiration on the go, and simplify license management. They standardized on Adobe Creative Cloud for teams (including apps such as Adobe Photoshop and mobile apps like Adobe Color CC), with vendor Adobe Photoshop named as part of the chosen toolset.

Using Adobe Photoshop and the broader Creative Cloud for teams, Accell implemented Creative Cloud Libraries, mobile capture apps, and full access to desktop apps so designers could search and reuse assets, convert sketches to vectors, and update software without IT intervention. The Adobe Photoshop-enabled solution streamlined collaboration and brand consistency, brought more creative work in-house, and reduced IT time spent managing licenses by about 50%, while accelerating designers’ workflows.
