It is a SaaS product and I guess that was just what made sense to them at the time.
They say they have a lot of EU customers, but something doesn't add up. Either they don't have a lot of EU customers, or their EU customers are ignoring GDPR, hosting locations, and (in my case) regulations on invoicing software.
Maybe those customers are just saying, "ah, it'll be fine, let's not worry about it." Which probably isn't a bad approach for small companies.
I suppose my choice comes down to: Do I want something off the shelf, slick, a bit expensive, and may or may not screw me in known ways. Or do I want something custom, slow to build, a bit clunkly, can adapt to my needs at the cost of my time, and won't screw me in known ways.
Of course, both may screw me in unknown ways :-)
Anyway, thanks for listening. This is mostly me just thinking this though.
- m4rtink 6y agoSaaS management system for WISP seems weird to me. From what I know from the local WISPs their internal systems need to be very robust and independent from internet connectivity, so when the network or Internet connectivity goes down, they are still available to quickly resolve the issue.
- adamcharnock 6y agoYes, I can totally see how that makes a lot of sense.
