try before buy

Permalink 1 user found helpful
is there any way we could have an area on concrete5.org that we could test the add-ons and it refreshes every hour. I ask this as not all the add-ons have demo sites and sometimes when it comes to clients requirements it would be nice to know that the add-on fits the bill before buying it.

I'd really appreciate a 'try-before-you-buy' or some other kind of program to help a buyer make sure a plugin fits the bill. I'd even go for a n-day no questions money back guarantee. Caveat Emptor.

Not having this safety net has stopped us from testing/trialing many modules.

Yeah, its hard to see why someone would go to the trouble of building
an add-on, and then NOT set a demo up for it. Weird.

is there any way we could have this on concrete5.org as would result probably in more sales for Concrete5. Is there a process to put this forward for suggestion other than this thread. Sorry don't know what the procedure is on this.

Cheers

We're not going to run demos of every add-on for every add-on
developer. It'd be a lot to maintain, it'd be quite a bit of effort to
setup, and it implies a level of support from us (concrete5.org core
team) on these add-ons that you're not going to see when you purchase
the add-on.

I would strongly encourage you to send a pre-sales message about the
demo to the developer behind the add-on you're interested in.
