Business IT - Technology

The online collaboration site Acrobat.com, which was in public beta, has officially launched with two paid and one free subscription service, as well as a new spreadsheet application.
The public beta of Acrobat.com began almost exactly a year ago, and, according to Adobe, more than 5 million people have signed up.

The service offers online meetings as well as the ability to upload and convert documents to PDF.

"Our customers have moved from e-mailing multiple versions of documents back and forth to collaborating on documents directly in a fluid online environment,” said Rob Tarkoff, senior vice president in Adobe’s Business Productivity Business Unit.

The new paid subscription plans are, so far, only available in North America. The Premium Basic subscription costs US$14.99 a month or $149 a year and permits up to 5 people to participate in online meetings and the conversion of ten documents a month to PDF.

The Premium Plus subscription costs $39 per month or $390 a year and lets up to 20 people attend a meeting and unlimited creation of PDF files. Through July 16, Adobe is offering discounts of $15 on the Premium Basic annual plan and $50 on the Premium Plus annual plan.

There is also still a free plan, offering online meetings for up to three people and creation of up to five PDF files.
