=== Crippleware === {{Main|Crippleware}} Crippleware has vital features of the program, such as printing or the ability to save files, disabled or unwanted features like watermarks on [[screencasting]] and [[video editing software]]<ref>{{cite book|title=Principles of Computer Science|last=Franceschetti|first=Donald R.|publisher=[[Salem Press]]|date=2016|pages=112β114|isbn=978-1-68217-139-4}}</ref> until the user buys the software. This allows users to take a close look at the features of a program without being able to use it to generate output. The distinction between freemium and crippleware is that an unlicensed freemium program has useful functionality, while crippleware demonstrates its potential but is not useful on its own.
