Classic Servoy

Hi Servoyians,

We are asked a few questions by one of our prospective client.

The question in what if SERVOY goes out of business?
Do we have to rebuild the system completely in any other programming language?
OR
Can we use Servoy’s java code to build any new functions over the existing servoy project?

What can I say to my client?

Thanks
Hameed

Servoy offers an escrow agreement for extra security, you can contact sales@servoy.com for more information.

There are various ways to migrate Servoy solution to Java as Servoy stores every solution in the repository which essentially describes every part of Servoy.

Concluding: yes, it is doable to migrate to Java (or other tech) if Servoy goes out of business.

Additionally: Servoy is a small but profitable company, financed by it’s owners who also work for Servoy full-time. History shows that these type of companies are the most likely to stay arround.

And ofcourse those 2 guys who started a company with this little wonder (in 1976 on april fools day…no joke) and after 6 months had to share a monthly income of $250.
Now they are the best known (IT) brand name in the world.
