TCS subscription model: Illustrator version, and can you go back to buying TCS outright as an upgrade later?

[Robert Lauriston]

Flare can replace both FrameMaker and RoboHelp, the core of TCS. I
don't like having each topic in a separate file, lack of true WYSIWYG
for PDF, or the inability to export change markup to PDF, but it's a
highly competitive alternative, especially with RoboHelp.

I don't think either has kept up with the way the profession has been
evolving. In recent years more and more of my content is coming out of
wikis. It's annoying to have to spend hour after hour formatting
already-written new content or cutting and pasting changes from the
wiki to an authoring tool.
