Tuxera NTFS for Mac is a commercial NTFS driver developed from the popular open source NTFS-3G driver, which is a natural part of all major Linux distributions, and also has lots of users on Mac OS X, FreeBSD, Solaris and NetBSD.
It has been engineered to bring our customers maximum possible performance when accessing NTFS drives while keeping their data safe. It also offers some additional features to its open source counterpart, NTFS-3G, along with commercial support.
Tuxera NTFS for Mac can be used as a full featured evaluation version for 15 days, after
What's New
Version 2011.4.2: Release notes were unavailable when this listing was updated.
Requirements
PPC / Intel, Mac OS X 10.4.11 or later.
Well, NTFS-3G is open-source so development and feature-set are up to the community. If people felt that Tuxera was not committing enough resources to the free version, they could easily create their own fork with a different team of developers.
Secondly, support is huge in the open-source community. Many companies base their entire business model on offering open-source software to the enterprise through lucrative support contracts. That seems to be the main point of the offering here, not creating a technically superior product separate from the free offering.
