At least they gave me the same price... They're not cheating as someone here
suggested hehehe

I don't think the problem is the $150. It's in fact very cheap $1800/year
for such kind of application (provided it is a complete, well-done,
dependable and stable system).

I think the problem is depending on any small company for your business. You
can depend on Oracle, on SAP, on Microsoft and on IBM. But you can't depend
on a small company, or at least I wouldn't do it; have had bad experiences
with that in the past.

I asked them if they would provide source code (under any kind of NDA and
non-redistributable license they choosed), so that I would have options if
they ran out of business (I hope they don't, but who knows...) or I wanted
to modify the application, correct an error or add a custom feature.

They said they wouldn't, so I said "no thanks". That business model works
for Microsoft, Adobe, SAP and these kind of companies, but a small company
can't ask their customers to trust blindly on their ability to stay there.

I wish they success and get lots of happy customers, but I won't be one of
them.
