Comments on: Freeware, Shareware and the value of software https://briksoftware.com/blog/archives/22 Thu, 14 Jun 2012 18:56:48 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=4.7 By: Joe Piekarz https://briksoftware.com/blog/archives/22/comment-page-1#comment-54 Tue, 09 Jan 2007 22:16:31 +0000 https://briksoftware.com/blog/?p=22#comment-54 Nice article. I like much of what you say about why a publisher/developer may decide if his work will be freeware, shareware or other. Our site is free for users because we learned that “community-based” applications where users interact or communicate with other users is best developed as a free service. For example LinkedIn. The success of a site like ours has more to with how many users are involved than how much they pay. Payment could be a barrier for some so we just took the idea out of the equation. Any thoughts or comments for us?
