Huh? At a 3 year multiple that is less than $3,000 monthly revenue. I'm sure a SaaS can provide way more value for $3k/mo before you start running into scaling issues
- methyl 5y agoYeah, that's a statement I find it hard to agree with. We have 10k customers, our application is really data heavy – our postgres db is a few TB in size – yet we never hit any scaling problems. Maybe the key was to use managed cloud SQL, but you should do that anyway as an early stage startup, because it's not part of your business to run databases.
