Pirated Software Cheap But Unreliable
By Azaraimy

Bandar Seri Begawan - In an interview with the Bulletin yesterday, Mr Lars Jeppesen the CEO of TechDistribution Ltd highlighted that a lot of users, including public offices and departments, are using pirated software copies and if there is no one here to provide services and support, it is very difficult to justify.

He believes that bringing added value to software products and educating end users on the benefits and issues of piracy are important.

Lars Jeppesen said that buying pirated software is not only wrong, but it could also bring problems. Most of the companies that use them lose data and go bankrupt. Microsoft updates its software to make it secure and safe. With licensed software, those updates can be downloaded on a regular basis.

He added that after doing research, they found that most people do not understand why they have to buy original copies since they could get much cheaper pirated ones.

"So our approach in the market is to educate and get people to know", he said, adding, "This will hopefully make people realise that they have to do the right thing, that is buying only licensed products". -- Courtesy of Borneo Bulletin
