Ah yeah, McDonalds is totally a reasonable comparison!
Corellium doesn’t charge a few “nice” researchers, but builds their business around the evil researchers willing to pay $1M/yr for a license. Clearly they’re exactly like McDonalds!
- saagarjha 7y agoI’m not going to argue with you about how comparable it is; I consider Corellium to be usable enough as a general purpose tool that I exempt it from criticism along the lines of “this is a bad product that can only really be used by bad people”. I have no insight into how many of their contracts go to “evil” researchers and how much this is skewed by them providing their services for free to those who are not “evil researchers”; if you can show me that their service is overwhelmingly used only by the people you’re talking about I might be a little bit more willing to entertain your point.
- willstrafach 7y agoThat's not the real licensing cost at all. The cloud and on-premise options are both available for substantially less.
- ryanlol 7y agoThe licensing costs seem to depend on who’s asking. I have no doubt that they might have offered you substantially better rates than that. People keep making very confident but incorrect statements regarding prices offered by Corellium because they assume everyone gets quoted the same, see this twitter thread for another example https://twitter.com/therealdaneel/status/1193122030687797248 https://twitter.com/therealdaneel/status/1193122030687797248
