During COVID lockdown, I asked my boss how things were going for our customers, suspecting it might be bad.
Fortunately most managed just fine, however a few of our customers really struggled as they had almost zero income due to the lockdown. These had asked for a pause of the SaaS contract they had with us.
My boss agreed to this, after all these had been good customers for years and if they survived would likely still be.
Of course my boss was in a relatively comfortable position, given that our other customers were doing fine, so we had plenty of income.
Now, if the downturn was more self-inflicted that kinda changes things a bit I guess. Still, we operate in a niche market, so my boss makes a point to keep good relations with our customers as the people tend to shuffle around between the companies in the niche.
