This trial software of 15 or 30 days as it currently is engineered DOESN'T WORK!
(Oh here he goes)
I'd like trial software to sell me on a product. And so should Corel!
This is what actually happens...
Download have a play.
Have to deal with the stuff of life... 5 days.
Have another play, "oh this is looking interesting".
Have to deal with the stuff of life... 12 days.
"Crap, the trial has run out!"
I likely got 15 hours out of Corel CAD before the trail expired. That's nothing like enough to get even a basic handle on it and decide if it is useful.
And while the trials for everything else are 30 days, CGS gets only 15 days. Someone want to have a go at explaining why that is? "You lot in the naughty corner only get 15 days!"
Why can't we have a standard for this for all applications. FEELS LIKE "WE WILL SCREW THOSE DRAW USERS HARDER!" It can really feel like anything else.
Why not have X actual days of use. If you have opened the trial for more than 5 minutes, (less could be an accidental click), then the next 24 hours = 1 day.
