About the Adobe Contract

East Tennessee State University recently entered into an agreement with Adobe, Inc. via a TBR contract. Our reseller is Computer Intelligence Association. This agreement gives faculty and staff access to many of Adobe’s most popular software products for installation on university-owned computers only. It includes software for both Windows PCs and Macintosh computers.

The contract benefits departments because now it will be easier and less expensive to keep Adobe software at the current, most recent release, without having to budget for unforeseen upgrades.

This agreement covers the Adobe products listed here: www.ciacentral.com/tenn

 

How do I obtain the software?

The Office of Information Technology will be responsible for installing the software on the computers once a license has been purchased. Please note that these Adobe programs can only be obtained with a purchase order initiated by your departmental requisition. You cannot purchase this software with your Pro-Card. Computer Intelligence Association is the vendor for the software. Please note you are purchasing from TBR contract #20010 on the requisition.

Once you have submitted a requisition and the license has been purchased, Computer Intelligence Association will email a copy of the license to the Procurement office, who will also inform OIT of your needs. Someone will be contacting you about coming to install the software for you.

Why can’t I buy the CDs?

The agreement only allows for one installation per license purchased. By centralizing the installation of the software, ETSU is assured of complying with any software audit that may occur in the future.

What if I want to put it on another computer and take it off this one?

Please call the OIT Help Desk and have a ticket put in. They will uninstall it from one, and install it to another. If you wish to keep the program on the original computer, you will need to purchase additional licenses.

What if I have additional questions?

Please contact OIT if you have further questions. We can be reached at oithelp@etsu.edu, or at x94648 on campus, and 439-4648 off campus.
