Licensing & Terms
45-Day Free Trial
InterroBot offers a trial period of 45 days. Download and go, no credit card required. You can start using the application today, and put it through its paces without fear of getting cut off after a nominal level of activity (n pages indexed or crawls).
After the trial period ends, to use InterroBot for commercial purposes, you'll need to purchase a license.
License
Software: Perpetual / Support & Upgrades: 1 year
Licenses are available exclusively through the Microsoft Store. They are the sole payment processor at this time. You can side-load install whether or not you've purchased through Microsoft, there's no requirement to install through the store.
InterroBot adheres to the classic single-user license model, which entitles you (the single user) to use the software commercially. You can use InterroBot on multiple machines, for as long as the licensed distributable (app/installer) runs on your computer.
A license comes with one year of email support and one year of upgrades. After the year is up, you can continue to use the latest version of InterroBot you had when the term expired. Support and upgrades end after one year, at which time you can choose whether to buy a new license or coast on the old version.
No solution is perfect for everyone, but the single-user license is as good a compromise between the commercial software creator's and users' interests as any.
Personal Edition
The personal and commercial versions of InterroBot are functionally equivalent. There is no difference between the two other than the allowable limits of commercial use and support. If you are using the application commercially, you must purchase a license after the trial period. Using InterroBot for a personal project? You're fine--there's no need for a license.
For those who prefer the (side-loaded) Personal Edition over the Microsoft Store version, not a problem. If you prefer the personal edition, continue using it. As long as you've purchased the license via the Microsoft Store, you're free to use either version commercially. In the event the two versions drift from one another, functionally, the website will host installers for both versions.
InterroBot is unable to provide personal support to personal edition (free-tier) users.
