and a bunch of “professional” apps.

It is in fact a bunch of pre-installed free software. I like Zorin, but Zorin Pro just seems like a way to trick businesses into paying for the distro. I guess having access to a support team is nice, but otherwise it's not worth it at all.

I think that is the point. Its like red hat. You pay for support.
