Presently own a perpetual license for Adobe Creative Suite 6 Master Collection. Will not be subscribing to Adobe Creative Cloud. Looking for links to what Corel might offer.
Thanks.
Did you see this?

Thanks Mike,
That is what i'm looking for!
Clicked on "Buy Now" link to see cost for switching to Corel products.
Got a maintenance announcement . . . try again, later. Not a good beginning . . .
The official page is http://www.corel.com/cs

Attempts to reach that upgrade url yields this result:
Down for maintenance. Try again later.
Apparently, you guys are not enthusiastic competitors looking to offer disgruntled Adobe customers an alternative to the Creative Cloud.
Your purchase and information links don't work the way they should . . . from a major software company.
I'm getting a blank page when I go to the "official" page, even though the source code to my blank page contains a meta refresh pointing to the "unofficial" URL above it. But the unofficial URL is working fine.
Bear in mind that depending on the country you are in, you will be routed either to different servers or through different routes, so the problem is not necessarily visible to all, nor is it necessarily a problem with Corel's servers.

Ah. I see the error. It was on following through here www.corel.com/cs-cross-grade.

We are looking into this right now. Thank you for flagging it.
Proof of purchase: What does Corel accept? Adobe users upgraded on a regular schedule. What does Corel accept as proof of purchase?
No comment?
Kinda like Corel is hunking up and deciding how best to exploit Abdoe's Creative Cloud.
Simple question . . . to switch to Corel . . . what does it cost? Compared with Abobe products, which is better?
Simple statement . . . as a longtime Adobe customer, i will not subscribe to their cloud.
Does not mean i will purchase any Corel product.
Hi Kwan,
I will also not continue with a subscription only model where you don't get to keep a license.

The link doesn't work at the moment, but a CS4, CS5 license will work. You need to provide your CS serial + date of purchase on this page: http://mc.corel.com/servlet/Satellite?pagename=register
I filled it in after buying the CorelDRAW X6 upgrade and got an e-mail within 24 hours with a serial number I can use when installing the upgrade version.

The cost depends on the Country you live in, I can't answer that for you. It's the initial cost of the upgrade version, and if you want to stay up to date you can get a Premium Membership (365 days). The major new versions appear every two years now. As you can see on this page:http://www.corel.com/corel/pages/index.jsp?pgid=2100019&storeKey=us&languageCode=enSo the cost would be the inital upgrade price + (2X premium membership) to stay fully up to date every two years. And you get to keep the latest perpetual version with a premium membership. Unlike with Adobe's subscription model.Since I am only a CorelDRAW user for a couple of days now, I of course can't say which is better. My guess at this point would be Adobe (I'm mainly talking about Photoshop here). But I'm going to give CorelDRAW and especially Photo-Paint a serious try.Jeff.
