There's no way for us to know unless Jetbrains shares their renewal percentage rate. In a similar business I was exposed to, 60% was considered pretty good. It wasn't exactly the same type of product, so I could be way off here.

Sadly, this happens all the time. And it does it in really sneaky ways, things like "Strike paragraph 1a from USC 1234 that says 'June 30, 2015' and replace with 'June 30, 2019'". That way if you're searc
