Shareware
Shareware is a type of software distribution model that allows users to try a program for free before deciding to purchase it. Typically, users can download and use the software with limited features or for a limited time. This approach encourages users to evaluate the software's functionality and usability.
If users find the software valuable, they are often encouraged to pay a fee to unlock the full version or access additional features. Shareware is commonly used for various applications, including games, utilities, and productivity tools, making it a popular choice for both developers and consumers.
