What is Shareware?

Info Shareware is a method for marketing software which allows the customer to try the software before buying it. It is also referred to as try-before-you-buy software, trialware, or evaluation software.

Generally, the user is granted an evaluation license to freely try the software for a specified length of time and/or number of uses. After the evaluation period ends, the user can choose to either purchase a full license or remove the software from their computer.

Shareware marketing has boomed with the growth of the Internet, which has diminished barriers to software distribution for small software companies. Evaluation versions of software can be downloaded from numerous Internet sites.
