Adobe is looking more like a holding company trying to grow their membership offerings than a company building a cohesive product. It's similar to how Microsoft is acquiring successful companies but having a hard time incorporating them into their ecosystem (Skype, anyone?).

I don't see this going well for either Adobe or Magento. Remember when Adobe acquired Macromedia and killed Fireworks? And then Sketch came in and neatly filled the void? That's kind of what Adobe appears to do to companies.

I'm not saying Adobe is bad, but their diverse portfolio of products won't be well integrated for years and in that time, there is the possibility of killing a brand simply because it does not keep up with time (and competition).

Good luck, Adobe.
