# Is every feature included in the free trial?

Yes. The trial unlocks every feature for its full length — it isn't a cut-down edition.

That's deliberate: the trial exists so you can try Storage Studio properly on your own Mac before deciding. All the paid plans also include every feature, so you won't find anything held back for a higher tier later. Plans differ only in how you pay (monthly, yearly or once).
