Adobe
Adobe keeps building out their software until it's untenable for my computer. I have to use InDesign for work; I have to have Creative Cloud active to use the fonts I need to use; Creative Cloud has to activate multiple aspects of itself to operate. There have been enough updates that my Windows 10 PC can no longer use InDesign or Photoshop; my Windows 11 laptop can't handle the workload. InDesign starts misbehaving after being open for more than an hour. The Adobe Community (because there isn't a real help desk) says "please upload pre-release" which is not available in my account.
Canva
“We canceled Canva after 12 years. We'd stopped using it a year earlier but kept paying, and two of us had separate team plans without knowing. We were paying about 4x for nothing.”

Wix
“Squarespace is a solid step up from Wix for a simple shop. If she already has a site and just wants it redesigned without starting over, I built revamped for that: paste the URL, see a redesign in about a minute.”

Evernote
Started out great years ago, went downhill, doubling price, not worth it now.
ClickUp
“ClickUp's pricing page now lists Business at $17 per user / month, billed yearly, up from $12. ClickUp's help center says existing workspaces keep their current plan and price, with changes starting no earlier than January 2027.”
ClickUp
“ClickUp replaced its $7 Unlimited plan with Core at $9 per user / month, billed yearly. ClickUp's help center says existing workspaces keep their current plan and price, with changes starting no earlier than January 2027.”
Teams that built their own
Loom's move into Atlassian ends legacy prices and free Creator Lite seats. One team's bill went from $125 to $800 a month. What changed and what to do.
DripJobs says customers are building copycat CRMs while still paying $97 to $147 a month. What copyright, trade dress and terms of service actually protect.
