They had a business model?

• koolba 7y ago
  I always assumed their business model was "Stay afloat till $BIG_CORP acquires us".
  • jacurtis 7y ago
    I think that is still the business model. The $7 /mo for enterprise is the "Stay Afloat until..." part of that business model

      Why? They already own Github which is about to reduce NPM to “feature, not product” status

        Why did Facebook buy WhatsApp, or Oracle buy Peoplesoft? Typically: to enhance their offerings, remove a competitor, or shut it down.
