Explanation:
Según el DRAE

demo.

(Del ingl. demo, acort. de demonstration).

1. f. Versión demostrativa de un programa informático o de una grabación musical utilizada con fines de promoción. U. t. c. m.

Tiene zentido, ya que se trata de una demostración.

Obviamente se aceptan ambos, por algún motivo se me escapó la nota U. t. c. m. al comienzo.

el demo


Explanation:
yo siempre uso "el demo" ya que se trata en realidad de un programa a manera de demostracion que tiene funcionalidad limitada

en tal sentido deberia ser "el demo" que hace referencia a "el programa demo"

en fin, es comun usar ambos, asi como tambien un / una
