Sadly this is not true. There are so many excellent applications and SaaS - but they die very fast.
If the company which builds an excellent solution does not get acquired they will learn the meaning of the word "hell on earth": customer acquisition baby. Customer acquisition is not easy.
Of course, customer acquisition is easier if your product does not suck - but not so much.
- kjksf 9y agoScreenhero clearly has customers. See all the people on this thread that are sad that Screenhero is going away. You could get your first 10 customers just by contacting those people. I'm not disputing that customer acquisition is hard but that's exactly why cloning Screenhero is better than doing any random idea. Also, you would have to list a couple of those "excellent applications that die very fast" before I just take your word for it. Personally I see many not so great applications that do decent business and have never seen an excellent application that died.
