What is Software Licensing?

Software licensing is a lawful agreement that regulates the service, distribution, and management of software. It describes the terms and conditions under which users or corporations can utilize a certain software product, outlining the rights, responsibilities, and restrictions associated with its usage. This contract is vital for both software developers and end-users, providing a framework for fair and lawful use of the software.

Types of Software Licensing

1.Proprietary (Closed Source) License

Proprietary software licenses, also renowned as closed-source licenses, restrict entry to the source
code of the software. Users typically receive only the compiled version of the software, and the source code remains
proprietary.

2.Open Source Licenses

Open-source licenses provide users with access to the source code of the software. Users can consider, change, and
allocate the code, subject to the terms of the specific open-source license.

3.Freeware License

Freeware is software that is allocated for free, and users are not required to pay for its use. However, there may still
be limitations on how the software can be utilized or redistributed.

4.Commercial License

Commercial software licenses are associated with software developed by a business or corporation. Users typically need
to pay for the software, and the source code is not usually provided.

5.Shareware License

Shareware permits users to take a try prior to buying the software. While initial use is often free or has limited
functionality, users are encouraged to pay for continued usage or access to additional features.
