Adobe, which has programs that are closely related to the design world, said that it bought Figma for $ 20 billion.
Figma, which has become a popular tool and closely followed by designers in recent years, was seen as a competitor for Adobe. Adobe made an unexpected move and bought one of its competitors, Figma.
Due to its nearly $20 billion acquisition, Figma users worried that Adobe would raise prices. Making a statement on the subject, Adobe's product chief, Scott Belsky, resolved all concerns. In the statement, Belsky stated that he would not change the price model of Figma, which Adobe bought, and underlined that the easy-to-use structure of the platform would not change either. In addition to all these statements, the Adobe manager also promised that Figma's free package will not be touched.
After the statements made, it can be said that Adobe does not plan changes for Figma. It is expected by the designers that Adobe will adapt the features in its software for Figma and add the font and visual elements to Figma.
Belsky stated that when Adobe makes an update, this update will not be an obstacle and that designers will not have difficulty navigating Figma's interface. Belsky stated that those who use Figma for collaborative work can share files at no extra cost and said that users who want to work on the same document do not need to be Creative Cloud subscribers.
It was stated that with Adobe's acquisition of Figma, it could direct the Adobe XD platform in its portfolio in another direction. It was stated that the focus of Adobe XD could be shifted to another area since Adobe XD is competing with Figma. Acquired by Adobe, Figma is expected to join Adobe in 2023.
