Thanks for keeping this free. I hope you will continue to keep this as a free software. I read your terms of use and I saw there something about paying the license:

Quote
PREMIUM / PAID License includes free support and regular updates and expires after one year.
A lifetime license (also called an "owned" or "one-time" license) includes support and updating for the life of the product.
VPS licenses may only be used on Virtual Private Server servers.
The pricing structure may be changed at any time. Price changes do not
affect existing licenses. The new rates will be applicable to the
existing licenses when the license is renewed.


Are you planning to convert this to a commercial/paid software?

Hi alons

Thank you for your assurance. However, do you think that in the future, you will convert it to paid?

Don't get too enthusiastic about it being free. It might start people thinking that maybe they should charge us for it!

Wheres the softwares income come from if its free? How is any money made? I'm just curious how you guys allow it to be free.


As has been stated twice already in this thread, there is a free and a premium (ie, paid for) version of the software.
So presumably, money is made when people pay them money.

Guys, install Ampps on your computer, which comes with the premium setup which is 3x better than the free version.  It's THE way to do development ... do it all on your local machine without having to install a Apache/SQL/PHP/Perl/Python (it's included in Ampps), then upload it when it's ready to go.  What a god send.  Pulkip Gupta and his team are a blessing. Plusplushosting offers the premium version with their shared packages ... they have speedy servers - it's almost as fast and sometimes faster developing online than it is with AMPPS.  I've been with them for about 10 years.  No, I'm not connected with them in anyway other than they host about 30 of my websites.  I've had many other webhosts, none compare. Chances are you can get your host to provide the premium softaculous at a modest price ... $3/mo or so.  It's definitely worth it imho.  I tried the free package after trying the premium and was very disappointed ... the free version does not have the best packages ...it has good ones, but not the best imho.
