Do you know of any commercial free software? If you do, could you please provide names and links?
Particularly Office related -- but examples in any category of sw are welcome.
I am a translator!
I guess you mean "open source commercial software"..
here you go bro!

That's the same thing, just called by the name given to it by the open source community. There's nothing wrong with the phrase "commercial free software".
I do not know the purpose of your question but, beyond the "big names" listed on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_commercial_open-source_applications_and_services you can find small local business providing service around free software. That includes service around LibreOffice (formations for instance).
That is an interesting point to make when you talk to politicians (at any level): free software entails a free market for support because any user can get the source code and pay anyone to implements new features, fix bugs, etc. The user does not enter a monopoly for support as she does with proprietary software and she can employ local fellows to get support.
I asked this question because I'd like to make a documentation page for commercial software and services.
And now that you mention it; maybe a page for social/community endorsements -- the Delhi government, UK, Cambridge MA.
Pretty much any Free Software project that a service can be made for.
OwnCloud is an example- many companies host OwnCloud servers that you can use.
OwnCloud itself, however has a proprietary "enterprise" version in contrast to the Free Software "personal" version- this needs to be avoided at all costs.
Free Software that isn't gratis is much more rare. I have only come across one such application, and it was a game.
