That's because they switched to a subscription model and are practically forcing companies to switch from their legacy perpetual licensing model. I can assure you that it's pissing a lot of people off and a lot of people are trying to find alternatives.

Where I work we dropped Adobe Pro because of the subscription model and switched over to FoxIT

Not only do they have a subscription model, but if you get their biggest single user package, which is ~$54/mo, they charge you ~$300 early cancellation fee. This is insane to me and is the main reason why I personally dumped them for my professional use.
