Top Paddle Alternatives

Selling software is a tough task, as there are many different models by which the software can be sold. It can be shareware, time-trialed, premium, subscription-based, or a complex combination of all these things. Paid upgrades make the situation even more complex. Managing the payment options alone can take up a whole lot of time and resources, even after the back office work is left alone. This complexity can be detrimental for the growth and improvement of the software and it will become slowly become money-oriented instead of feature-oriented. To prevent such a situation, the UK-based company Paddle has introduced its new platform that manages software licenses and trials in a fluid manner. This all-in-one solution, known as Paddle, handles software purchases, trials, licenses, and even payment-related insights, all at once.
