JSON Essentials™ for COM/ActiveX Evaluation

Current version: 1.2.1
Released on: 2022.01.20

The evaluation version allows anyone trying all features of JSON Essentials™ for COM/ActiveX without any time or functional limitations. Its only purpose is to evaluate the product, no other users are permitted. Once you're happy with your experience you can always make your license choice depending on your needs, which implies free or business use. The evaluation version has order ID 0 which is important for deployment and affects COM class names, a retail version will have a unique order ID, so that only non-functional difference has to be taken into consideration.
