Case Study: Pittsburg State University achieves high compliance and streamlined license management with Adobe Creative Cloud (Adobe)

Pittsburg State University streamlines Adobe Creative Cloud license management with Named User Licensing

Pittsburg State University, a Midwestern campus of about 7,000 students, needed to give faculty and staff broad access to Adobe creative apps while reducing the time IT spent managing licenses and improving licensing compliance. IT wanted a simpler, more secure way to provision software without juggling serial numbers or risking expired or pirated licenses.

PSU deployed Adobe Creative Cloud for enterprise using Named User Licensing — configured in just 3.5 hours with Adobe onboarding — tying licenses to Active Directory for automated provisioning. The result: seamless integration, flexible access (including mobile apps), high compliance through automation, and virtually no ongoing license management overhead for IT.
