When anything is advertised as free, everybody's first reaction is to be skeptical. And with good reason.
There is nearly always a catch. A favorite trick with software is to shout FREE! in the ad, but then
the so-called "free" product turns out to be only a free trial. Or the "free" product comes with a load of adware
or nasty spyware and other unwelcome add-ons. Or you have to agree to let your contact details be
distributed to dubious third parties so they can pester you forever afterwards with spam.
With BodyByte you get none of that. BodyByte is high-quality software, used by several universities and research institutions.
It comes in 4 country editions, each in 2 type versions: Standard and Professional. All downloads are free, but BodyByte needs
to be activated before it will work fully.
Activation of any country edition of BodyByte standard version is absolutely free.
Activation of the BodyByte Professional version is not free, and can be purchased online.
"AHA!" - you now probably think: "There's the catch! The standard version is no doubt a scaled-down, limited-function
lightweight that is only meant to wet our appetite for the real deal Professional version which they want us to pay for."
NOT SO. The functional and analytical capabilities of the standard and Professional versions are identical. The ONLY difference
is that the standard version is licensed for private use, while the Professional version is licensed for commercial and
research use, mostly for nutrition- and fitness professionals. For this purpose only the Professional version can convert BodyByte
nutrition- and fitness plans to an exchange file format for distribution to other BodyByte users.
The bottom line is, if you are going to use BodyByte for commercial or consulting purposes, it is only fair that you will be charged
for your BodyByte Pro activation, which is not expensive anyway. If you use BodyByte privately for yourself, your family, or a
group of friends or colleagues at work, you get it free. Plain and simple.
If you wish, you can Check Activation Cost
for all BodyByte editions, and see for yourself that all standard versions are indeed FREE. Then, you can
Download your choice of BodyByte country
edition and proceed to activate it at absolutely no charge or obligation. Try it out, you have nothing to lose.
