I suggest you have another off-site backup plan. It verifies each backup made and alerts if there is a problem. How important are your files to you? How important is it for you to be able to speak directly to the developer? I have had too many instances of it not backing up when it was supposed to and failing to inform of such, as well as creating unstable backups that it doesn't tell you about until you need the backup, and then it is too late. Time Machine may work just fine for you, as one of your backup plans.

In my opinion, that can leave the developer to neglect or miss some important aspects of the software.

Usually commercial software or games are produced for sale or to serve a commercial purpose.I believe in going with software that is proven, has a history, gives excellent support, and focuses on the Mac environment, instead of trying to be one app for all platforms. Even though, most trial software products are only time-limited some also have feature limitations. After that trial period (usually 15 to 90 days) the user can decide whether to buy the software or not. Trial software allows the user to evaluate the software for a limited amount of time.

Demos are usually not time-limited (like Trial software) but the functionality is limited. In some cases, all the functionality is disabled until the license is purchased. Demoĭemo programs have a limited functionality for free, but charge for an advanced set of features or for the removal of advertisements from the program's interfaces. In some cases, ads may be show to the users. Basically, a product is offered Free to Play (Freemium) and the user can decide if he wants to pay the money (Premium) for additional features, services, virtual or physical goods that expand the functionality of the game. This license is commonly used for video games and it allows users to download and play the game for free. There are many different open source licenses but they all must comply with the Open Source Definition - in brief: the software can be freely used, modified and shared. Programs released under this license can be used at no cost for both personal and commercial purposes. Open Source software is software with source code that anyone can inspect, modify or enhance. Freeware products can be used free of charge for both personal and professional (commercial use). Freeware programs can be downloaded used free of charge and without any time limitations.
