Our Products

Market Pro and Market Pro Junior are sales configurators that enable marketing managers and salespeople to carry out even the most complex marketing campaigns.  Information is input into the program, and when the program is used to creat a sales order all pricing and discounting information is perfectly applied.

Freight Calc and EZ Calc are both freight calculators.  Freight Calc is especially designed for the small business that has extensive local freight needs.  EZ Calc is appropriate for companies that ship air and surface to many different locations.

Limits on Use and Distribution

Market Pro, Market Pro Jr., and Freight Calc are shareware programs that must be registered after the free 30-day trial period has expired.  In their "locked" form they may be freely distributed as shareware.  No "unlocked" or registered version may be distributed to any entity beyond the purchasing entity unless such distribution is a valid use of the product consistent with its design and intent.

EZ Calc is provided as freeware and can be freely used and distributed, as long as such distribution is free of charge.

No portion of any XL Gizmos business tool can be incorporated into any commercial software package, unless such incorporation is performed by XL Gizmos itself.
