An important note: busy times vs hold times vs best time to call
When we refer to busy or less busy times, we are talking about the volume of calls. The busiest times are when the most people are calling this Adobe Systems phone number (least busy times have fewer people calling). This high call volume does not necessarily mean that you will have a long hold time when you call. Companies like Adobe Systems staff their call centers differently based on the time of day and day of the week, so you may experience a shorter wait on hold at the busiest of times. When we refer to the best time to call, we are referring to the optimal combination of lower call volume and shorter wait times.
The least busy time to call
The least busy day to call Adobe Systems is Wednesday.The most busy day to call is Tuesday, which averages 105% more phone calls by comparison.Again, this is based on a sample of 277 calls made with our AI-powered, web-based phone in the last 90 days.

Plus we believe that Adobe Systems staffs the call center well on Wednesday.
Adobe offers three main reasons that people attempt to call, and purchasing a product is one of the easier experiences I've found with any company. The staff was quite knowledgeable about the product, answering any questions I had about purchasing Photoshop and whether I would be saving any money if I opted for a yearlong license as opposed to a month-to-month plan.
The salesperson explained that if I wanted to purchase Photoshop, I would need to buy a license and could then download it once I had attached it to an e-mail. He further explained that I could either purchase a monthly plan or a yearlong subscription and confirmed that there would be a cost difference if I opted for the yearlong plan. He further confirmed that should I want to switch to a yearly plan, I would be able to do so at any point.
The wait time was very brief once I was past the opening menu. I had a wait time of less than one minute before I was connected to a pleasant-sounding representative who handled my call quickly and efficiently. When I left the call after getting the information for the scenario that I wanted, I promptly received a call back from a 1-800-915-9459 number to try to reconnect, confirming that it does indeed have a quick and easy way to get in touch with someone after a dropped call. If I were actually in the market for a new piece of Adobe software such as Photoshop, I likely would have been very comfortable making the purchase through the phone system.
I didn't love the automated menu, as it's not very expansive and only gives you a maximum of three listens to the options before it decides that you aren't going to make a selection and hangs you up. When it does, even choosing a selection isn't going to be enough to get the system to stop going through the process of hanging up the call. Adobe also has more than a few complaints from customers who have dealt with questions on their account. It seems that entering in the Adobe ID at the beginning of the call as requested would go a long way toward cleaning up some of those problems, but as I don't have an Adobe ID, that isn't something I'm able to confirm.
Based on my call to Adobe, I would feel very comfortable working with the Adobe customer service representatives. I do think the menu could be updated, but you don't interact with it for long, so it's not much of a negative.

Information about why customers call Adobe Systems is extracted from issues that customers have reported to GetHuman.
If phone-based customer service is not available, or the wait times are long, many people prefer chat as a next-best option. Some even prefer it to calling on the phone. Luckily, Adobe Systems provides this option.
Adobe Systems Customer Service on X (formerly Twitter)
Adobe Systems, like many companies, provides customer service on the X platform (formerly Twitter). While it rarely entails live dialogue with a customer service rep, this channel can yield rapid response times and can be a useful option if you have an X/Twitter account.
As a last, sometimes only, resort- Adobe Systems customer service can be accessed through their website. This can entail digging through help articles before finding a form and "being allowed" to submit a problem to their team, and rarely leads to a real-time conversation, which is why GetHuman does not recommend this unless it's the only way.
