Trial version
If you're not ready yet to buy MageBridge, you might want to try it out first: We offer a free trial-package that can be used on testing sites. Just start installing MageBridge - as instructed in our online MageBridge Installation Guide - and use the license key TRIAL instead.
Limitations of the MageBridge trial-version
The MageBridge trial-version is an exact copy of the MageBridge full version. The only feature that is disabled is the MageBridge Update Manager - only with a valid license can you upgrade to the full version. All PHP-files of the trial-version are encrypted with ionCube.
You can only obtain the open source files as paying customer or through a public SVN server.
Buy MageBridge, and get the full PHP source-code
The trial will expire in 28 days after installation. When the end of this period is reached, the PHP-scripts themselves will not work anymore, and - due to the way MageBridge is integrated in Joomla! - this will make your Joomla! site crash.
Do not use this trial-version for production environments!
Requirement for ionCube
To use our MageBridge trial-version, you will need to have the free ionCube Loaders installed on your service. Refer to the ionCube website for instructions. We do not provide support for installing ionCube.
No support
Please note that the MageBridge trial-version is ment for experienced developers only. We do not provide any support for it. Our extensive documentation should guide you in all processes. If you do require support, you can either hire us on an hourly basis, or hire your in-house developer. Ofcourse, support is also included in the paid versions of MageBridge.
Upgrading to a full version
Once you are ready for the full version - or you require extra help and/or support - , you can purchase a full MageBridge license. With the new license-key, you can easily upgrade MageBridge to the full open version. The full version will replace all ionCube-encrypted files with regular PHP-files (open source). To upgrade, you only need to click - upgrading couldn't be easier.
