False Description/Advertising on Github

  • I am currently looking for free plugins for my website so that I can live chat with customers. I currently use the messenger plugin that is completely free but wanted to explore different options. I was intrigued in this plugin when I read the following description on their github code description,

    Not a stripped down “Free” version, but a fully loaded product.
    – Free for life. No hidden fees or unfair restrictions.
    – Free for single use and teams of up to 10 agents.

    Of course, that is just bs. I installed their plugin and I was delighted to see the following plans with a notification of a 15 day trial:

    Starter
$29/month
Growth current trial
$49/month
Scale
$149/month
Scale Plus
$299/month

    I just deleted the plugin and so should you. Next time, do not advertise free when you are charging for a “premium” product.
