How to Buy Cheap Software
Knowing how to effectively shop for software can save you hundreds of dollars and a business, or organization of any kind really, thousands and tens of thousands of dollars. But sometimes getting the lowest price isn’t the only consideration. There are many websites online right now that offer fake or stolen software using very low prices to lure people into their trap. If a price is too good to be true make sure you do your due diligence on the company offering the software.
Comparison Shopping Engines
The best way to find great prices on major software titles is to use comparison shopping engines like Google Shopping , PriceGrabber and Nextag. These websites work with online retailers to compile prices into one easy to browse product page. These pages often include user reviews of each company offering the product as well, which is very helpful in determining which companies are reputable and which are not.
Our favorite comparison shopping engines:
Online Marketplaces
Very similar to comparison shopping engines are online marketplaces. These are sites like Amazon, BestBuy.com and Buy.com. At first glance they just look like big ecommerce websites, but if you dig a little deeper you’ll find that they allow third party sellers to list products on their site. You can often find great deals by avoiding purchasing directly from those companies and instead buying from these third party sellers (like us!;).

Amazon’s Daily Software Deals
Another great place to check is Amazon’s software deals page. They run daily deals in most of their product categories and software is no different. You can regularly find sales of more than 50% off on popular software titles.
SoftwareMedia.com’s Software Deals
You might be wondering why we’re talking about comparison shopping engines, amazon deals, and google shopping when you might not think it would be to our advantage to do so. Shouldn’t we just be talking about how great we are as a company and how low our prices are? Good question dear reader. The thing is, we’re very confident that we have the best prices online on ANY of those comparison engines, online marketplaces and even regularly beat Amazon’s software deals. So even if you do decide to leave our website right now, we expect you’ll be back 😉
Cheap Software Downloads
Software downloads, as opposed to physical boxes with DVDs or CDs, will almost always be cheaper. So this is a reason to not only avoid purchasing software at a birck and mortar store like Staples, but to also make sure you look for Downloads online. We clearly mark our software downloads with “- Download” in the title so they’re easy to find on our website.
