SoftArea51, launched Jan 12, is a web based software downloads archive who joinedthe ASP Shareware community adopting its principles and statements in promoting thesoftware technologies and the software publishers.SoftArea51's declared purpose is to get the software publishers closer to softwareusers by promoting only quality freeware and shareware software.
For a long period of time the shareware concept was largely misunderstood. In fact,shareware does not refer to a software category but to a marketing strategy ofpromoting computer software. A user tries out the program, and thus shareware hasalso been known as "try before you buy".
The company mission is to create a direct bound between software publishers andfinal users. This means increasing software companies visibility and making theirproduct better known to the public audience, helping customers to easily choose andbuy the most suitable product for them, keep inform with the latest releases orupdates and the most popular software. Also benefiting from other user experience inusing specific software products will make their life much easier.
SoftArea51 successfully combines aspects of a library software archive, a webdownload site and an online store. The archive is well structured into categoriesthat are not automatically generated but human carefully defined. The enhancedpowerful search engine helps customers to quickly find the desired product bysearching for required features.
SoftArea51 filters software products not only by categories but also by publishers.Every publisher has his own page making it's product easier to reach and allowingthe final users to pick up themselves the best publishers.

"Software, the thing that everybody hates but no one can live without it. Take amoment and look around, you will be amazed how many things are driven by software:the computer, the phone, the palm top, the games console, the elevator and even thewash machine. And now ask yourselves, where do I get my software from? We don'tprovide only software but also we provide assistance for our users and we assure thequality of the software that we promote. It's wild out there but we try to make iteasier for our partners." said Serge Constanza, co-founder at SoftArea51.
