Trial Software License (Demo License)
Trial licenses are agreements that allow potential customers to try the vendors software, usually for a very limited time 30-90 days free of change in order to allow the customer to evaluate if they wish to purchase a license. In many cases the vendor will provide certain free services in an effort to ensure that the software is installed properly and that the customers staff is given some orientation on the proper use of the software. It should be noted typically the trial license does not include a warranty, nor in many cases an IP indemnity. Vendors often do not wish to accept that additional financial exposure until the customer has made a purchase commitment.
