Ziyini ezinye zezinhlobo ezivamile zokukhokhelwa kwesofthiwe?
Kunezinhlobo eziningi zamamodeli entengo yesoftware, kepha kabanzi zingahlukaniswa ngezigaba ezintathu: okungapheli, okubhaliselwe, nokusetshenziswa.  Imodeli yokukhokhisa isofthiwe engapheli, eyaziwa nangokuthi imodeli yelayisense engapheli, ivumela isofthiwe ukuthi ithengwe ngemali yesikhathi esisodwa. Ngokuvamile umthengi unokusetshenziswa kwesofthiwe okungenamkhawulo phakade. Uma kudingeka kwenziwe izibuyekezo ku-software, kungathengwa iphakethe lokugcina isofthiwe elihlukile.  Isofthiwe yokubhalisa ivumela ukusetshenziswa okungenamkhawulo kwesofthiwe isikhathi esinqunyiwe kusengaphambili, ngokuvamile unyaka owodwa noma iminyaka emithathu, ngentengo. Ukuvuselelwa kwesofthiwe ngokuvamile kufakwa entengo yokubhalisa. Ekupheleni kwenkathi yokubhalisa, umthengi ngokuvamile unenketho yokuvuselela ukubhalisa kwakhe.  Isofthiwe esekelwe ekusetshenzisweni ivumela umthengi ukuba akhokhele ukusetshenziswa kwakhe kwangempela kwesofthiwe phakathi nesikhathi esithile, isibonelo ngenyanga. Kulolu hlobo lwesivumelwano, ukusetshenziswa kwangempela kungashintsha kusuka enkathini kuya enkathini, okuholela ekutheni izindleko zamakhasimende nazo zishintshe. Amanye amakhasimende ayakujabulela ukwazi ukuthi azokhokhela kuphela lokho akusebenzisayo, kuyilapho amanye amakhasimende engakuthandi ukungalindeleki kwama-akhawunti awo.
