Few thoughts:

  1. What is being made? Can't really care about it without having some idea
  2. What makes this company's version of it worth our interest?
  3. How is it better than the FOSS solutions that in this day and age almost definitely already exist
  4. Why are we to put our faith in this group for pay once software when their two major products are SaaS?
