Challenges

The shift to a digital-first environment has seen a surge in the uptake of document productivity solutions. Following the ban on Chinese apps in India, Adobe experienced a substantial surge in downloads of its applications. However, a noteworthy challenge emerged as only a fraction of these users opted for the paid subscription. Recognizing the large potential in the Indian market, Adobe’s product team sought to delve deeper into user behavior, focusing on aspects such as willingness to pay, product adoption, usability, and localization.
