What is the difference between Shareware, Freeware and Demo?
• A Shareware (Trial) licensed program (sometimes referred to as try-before-you-buy software) usually offers some type of trial, this can be time or function limited. This method of licensing enables users to try the software out before deciding whether to purchase the full unrestricted version. If on the other hand you do not wish to keep the software, you can just uninstall it. You do not at any time receive a demand for payment. • Demo software titles are usually produced by larger software development companies and are meant to give you a small taste of a large program. They usually contain only selected parts of the program while giving you ample functionality, allowing you to decide if it will suit your needs. • Freeware programs are completely free to use and keep. Be advised that these titles may include some kind of advertising banner placed there by the author, enabling them to gain a little revenue for their hard work.
