Adobe's research suggests there is significant demand for Stock content beyond the small number of users who currently purchase stock assets within an organization. Recent surveys of enterprise and SMB markets show that common challenges, such as obtaining purchase approvals or being unable to use unwatermarked images in mockups, prevent many users from licensing high-quality stock assets. As a result, some users rely on unlicensed or free content for mockups, concepts, and presentations.
