As the name suggests, freeware can be used free, although in the case of free trials or freemium software, this is sometimes only true for a limited period of time or with limited functionality. • Commercial software – Software available for a fee, often inaccurately termed "commercial software", which can only be legally used on purchase of a license. • Open source software - on the other hand, comes with a free software license, granting the recipient the rights to modify and redistribute the software.
