| If I'm wrong, please let me know, but I'd suggest if you're going

| pay for) whatever you're thinking of building, instead of what is
| already out there. Then, tell us what that is! Because that
| doesn't seem to be on the page.

| of generic companies, it's literally not possible. It's not
| even possible to build the majority of the
| tooling/framework/generic business logic. I think projects that
| target developers as their core market will fail. Developers,
| even at companies, just don't have the budget to buy these
| things at the costs it would require to make them sustainable.
| They don't even have the authority to make such a decision,
| again look at ecommerce and look who decides what software gets
| bought and built upon; it's generally not the CTO. It's the CEO
| and COO. But of course, you need to have a professional level
| of support to make it worthwhile for the company to buy it. The
| upselling on this is also reasonably good again as seen by
| ecommerce and other areas.
|
| Oh and one other thing, I think any solution that isn't as vast
| as the ecommerce solutions are to ecommerce will also fail.
| Most of these are generally very small and don't tackle any
| issues companies will have after the MVP stage.

| framework.)
