A Web site that advertises a product but contains only the equivalent of a paper brochure with no interactivity. Since a Web site is not restricted to the size of paper pages, it can be much more elaborate than a paper brochure. For example, it can show numerous images and details of its products, make recommendations based on user input, provide downloads of software demos, compute and process the sale and remember the questions users asked the last time they visited. All this is missing in brochureware. See wares.
