How to get up to 93 days of free demo time a year!

From the day you activate your first demo you have 30 days of fully functional use. When this initial 30 day demo period ends your Demo License expires and your plug-in will stop working. If you wait for 30 days you will be eligible for another 7 day fully functional free demo. You don’t have to activate it right away, but when you do it will run for 7 days and then the 7 day Demo License will expire and the plug-in will stop working. Wait another 30 days and you will be eligible for another 7 day Demo License. For one year we will repeat this pattern with you becoming eligible for a 7 day demo, 30 days from when your previous demo expires. That’s up to 93 days of free demo over the course of a year. At our discretion SSL might well decide to continue offering you free demo time.

After your first demo has expired, providing you do not unsubscribe from receiving email from us, we will email you to remind you when your next free demo period becomes available.
