Freeware is a great alternative to commercial software, sometimes it’s even the better choice. Unfortunately there isn’t always a freeware alternative. The only thing better than finding the freeware that you need is getting the commercial software that you want for free, legally. Check out these websites for free fully-licensed commercial software.
Giveaway of the Day
Giveaway of the Day is a website that specializes in providing commercial software for download legally. The trick is that the software title is only available for 24 hours and what’s available changes daily.
You can find these downloads and subscribe to their RSS at http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/.
Also be sure to check out their subsite http://game.giveawayoftheday.com/ for free game giveaways.
Paragon Software
Paragon Software routinely offers their software available for free download. You can subscribe to a special RSS feed that they have setup specifically for their free software titles.
Currently you can download their Partition Manager Personal for free until Monday morning at 9AM. Partition Manager Personal is software that allows you to manage and change hard drive partition specifications. Previously, I’ve recommended GParted but Paragon’s offering is definitely worth checking out.
Find Partition Manager Personal and monitor for the next free title at Paragon’s Free Giveaway page.
