With the announcement of the new Adobe Lightroom CC and Lightroom Classic and the elimination of the standalone Lightroom version (more info here), I want to remind everybody what Adobe has been repeating over the years - Lightroom will continue to be available as a standalone version:

Q. Will Lightroom become a subscription only offering after Lightroom 5?

A. Future versions of Lightroom will be made available via traditional perpetual licenses indefinitely.

 
You can try some of the new alternatives to Lightroom:

• ON1 Photo RAW
• Macphun Luminar (coming also to Windows).
