Suggestions for trial mode
Posted: Thu Sep 07, 2023 6:53 am
As someone who’s just finished the 30-day trial period, I’d like to offer some suggestions based on my observations:
1. It would be VERY helpful if the driver offered the option to emulate different grades (Pro vs Studio vs XL) so that we can know exactly how the driver would perform after the trial period.
2. Failing that, it would be VERY helpful to have a complete list of Studio features and a complete list of XL features so that we know exactly what features would be present (absent) if we decided to go for a certain grade.
3. It would be helpful if the calculation of when demo expires be consistent.
(Regarding #3, I downloaded my Linux amd64 and Linux arm32 files the same day, but didn’t bother testing arm32 until the last day of my trial period; the amd64 demo said I had 1 day left, the arm32 demo said it had already expired. I basically got a 0-day trial period for arm32 even though I should have at least 1 day of trial left.)
