The topic: Why?

----------------------------------------------

Why does trial software only do so much?  Why does it have limitations?  This project I was working on the past week needed certain kinds of software. But the trial version only did a little, I needed something that did longer than just a little.  A time thing. So, I bought the software and it didn’t work. They said on their website “if this doesn’t work, upgrade to this, we’ll refund your money for your first purchase if you’ve made them both in a short period of time”.  So, I bought the upgrade. It worked on some of what I was doing, but I kept having an encoding problem with about half of what I was working on.

So, I tried a different company’s software.  That was half the price.  And it works like a dream.  No problems, no error messages.  Their trial software is a full version, just has a big ass watermark over it. But you know it works.

I have no use for company A’s product.  I like company B’s product. Now what do I do?

I had no choice but to purchase the full versions since the trials weren’t enough.

Time to contact their support. Keep your fingers crossed I can get my money back.

Other than that, my project is complete.  I would have never imagined something so simple would take so much time.
