Has anyone here experienced incessant, unrelenting phone calls and emails
from Adobe Sales, harassing you into "consolidating" your company's
existing CC accounts into a single Teams account?

We are a small, 4 person company, and I currently manage each editor's CC
license using separate CC accounts. This is not a big deal to me, and
although it would be nice to manage them all using a single account, it's
not worth paying an additional $100/month over what we're currently paying
to keep the individual accounts.

I've been ignoring all of Adobe's annoying emails and phone calls regarding
this, but today I finally emailed them to ask them to STOP bugging me about
it, and to STOP calling my direct line in order to evangelize me on moving
to a Teams account.

Within 5 minutes of me sending that email, my phone started ringing. It was
Adobe.

So I Googled for "Adobe complaints", so I could submit a complaint to them
regarding the harassing behavior of their sales reps, despite having been
told to cease and desist in contacting us in regards to this topic. But I
was annoyed (but not entirely shocked) to discover that Adobe does not have
any official conduit for accepting customer complaints.

It's stuff like this (as well as the never ending and increasing
instability of the CC apps) that makes me seriously consider switching over
to DaVinci Resolve.

Sorry, just had to vent.
