Black Friday Deals for Software?


Over the years I've purchased variety of software from software VPNs to text editors from BlackFriday deals. This years I don't have anything specific on my mind, so I thought I might as well ask the hive mind to send pointers to BlackFriday deals for (great!) software. Thanks!

Affinity makes some great alternatives to Photoshop and Illustrator (and you only pay for it once rather than monthly). They have a 40% off deal for Black Friday. See https://affinity.serif.com/en-us/

This GitHub repo has a bunch of software deals from indie makers: https://github.com/trungdq88/Awesome-Black-Friday-Cyber-Mond...

I would also recommend you check out https://www.heuristi.ca/. I am a bit biased here since I am the founder but it is a great tool for learning, exploration, and divergent thinking. It is 40% off for Black Friday.

I worked on https://saas.blackfriday featuring 40+ deals of marketing, SEO, sales, CRM, dev, product, and business software.

Deals vary from extended trials, extra credits, discounts to lifetime plans. Ending soon.

If you're using macOS, here you can find my 2 apps: SideNotes and Workspaces. Both discounted 40% and both are one-time-purchase. https://www.apptorium.com/black-friday-2023

Ok, not really software, but I'm hoping phind does a last minute BF deal (doubt they'll bother/need to) on their annual $300 offering. I'd swap it for my current $20/mnth openAI subscription.

i'm not a fan of adobe but they are an industry standard and have a deal for 50% off the full suite 1 year plan which strikes me as a decent deal
