Source available can be helpful if you want a local dev setup or testing environment. >Source only helps me if I'm the one running the code Many times I've gotten better support when I open a Github issue and send the link to support--usually I can get around all the canned troubleshooting steps and get to an engineer quicker. >So the fact that your SaaS is source available has no bearing on my use of it You can tell if the product is garbage before you pay for it (does this place review changes, do they have automated tests??) imo it's still helpful although small. If you're looking to run it yourself, sometimes source available can quickly be ruled out--especially if your company reviews and tracks license terms and doesn't want the headache of something custom/complicated
