Purchasing Freeway Express

On the softpress “free trial” link it looks like if I download the free trial, I would not be able to actually purchase this program and publish a web site until my 30 day trial period is up. Is this correct?

Is there a significant advantage for buying the CD as well as the download?

Any comments appreciated.

You can buy at any time. I trialed the demo before I bought it and I didn’t wait till my 30 days was up. Simply uninstalled the demo with AppZapper and then installed the full version and I was up and running.

You don’t even need to go that far. You can simply download the full version, drag it into your Applications folder (overwriting the trial version) and run it. The first time you run either the trial or the full version Freeway modifies itself with the requisite information.

Thank you for replies. This is good news. Softpress needs to tweak their wording on this issue.

Any comments on paying the extra for the CD (as back-up)? Does a hard copy manual come with the extra cost?

Thanks

Not worth it. Your normal backup system using Time Machine or whatever
you’re already doing (you are already doing backups, right?) will
catch the DMG for you.

A (very, very nice) hard copy manual is available separately, not with the CD version, for ~$40.

If you want a backup of your installer, burn it to CD. I have to say
that it is nice to have a proper physical product, with printed
serial number for easy reference, that you can see on your software
shelves, particularly for major apps such as Freeway, QuarkXPress or
the Creative Suite. But it isn’t necessary.

You can buy a printed manual separately. Perhaps you should put the
extra cash towards that instead?
