Trial Version? Or satisfaction guarantee?

Post by Steve973 »

BeerTools Pro looks like it'll be fantastic from the screenshots and from the description, but I'd like to try it before I pay 25 or 30 dollars. Do you have a trial version? Or, at least, do you have a satisfaction guarantee? I'm hesitant to buy the software without trying it first, but if I like it, I have no problem with supporting your efforts.

Thanks,
Steve

BeerTools Pro supports trial evaluation but the site does not have it implemented into the licensing system. It is not currently known how or if trial versioning of the software will be supported. We are currently discussing this topic and hope to have something more certain to say about it in the near future. Thanks!

Any chance of PMing me with a link for download and a trial key? I really only need about 20-30 minutes with the software before I know if I'll want to buy it. So, a 1 or 2 day eval license would be plenty.

I'll keep you posted

We wont rule it out. BTP is set up to do so, it would require some work in the store and the download managment system in the MyBeerTools tab. I'll keep you posted.

With the last post about this topic being Wed Oct 25, 2006, is there any new information about evaluating your software? I am definitely interested in trying it before committing $25. Thanks!

??????????????

Has a trial version been developed yet, i'm interested in trying this software also. How can you compete with the other brewing software that is out there is you cant compare them.

Since ProMash is in line for an upgrade in the near future, you would think the Beer Tools authors would like to convert PM users. Will PM users convert without a trial? Just a thought.

Somewhere around here, I think Jeff said that they expect to have a trial version when version 1.1 is released. I think he also speculated that that might be sometime around June '07. ...but I can't find the post at the moment, so don't hold him to it. Hopefully I didn't dream it.
