Remember when you had to buy software updates on physical CDs?

Us, too. Every year the companies that make business-critical software would release their updates on physical discs, and, eventually, we’d order one of those CDs and update our entire system with it.

Feels like ages ago, right? Everything has changed in the world of tech. Now, SaaS, PaaS, and IaaS vendors develop constantly, based on the principles of Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery (CI/CD).

Everything about software development has changed. So why hasn’t the escrow process?

Escrow is an important (and simple) way to protect your “crown jewels”—your source code—and your customers. It’s a system of letting a neutral third-party store copies of your source code in secure vaults.

When it’s set up, it can do a lot of good for your business:

You protect your code.

No matter what happens, an up-to-date backup of your code is secure on a separate server. Your source code is safe against any kind of cyber attack.

You protect your customers.

If something happens to your business, your customers can continue using the tools you’ve built. When you build mission-critical software, it’s a great extra protection.

You inspire trust.

When you stay transparent with your customers, you stand out from the crowd. Escrow is a simple, quick way to add another layer of trust to your customer management.

Escrow isn’t as popular as it should be…and that’s because the process is complex.

You can’t do it yourself

Escrow services typically involve lots of stakeholders, meetings, contracts, and paperwork.

It takes ages to get done

Managing the mountain of paperwork means escrow becomes a bigger task on your to-do list.

It isn’t fun

Escrow often becomes one of those things you keep pushing off. It isn’t something you’re excited about.

We started to wonder how we could make the escrow process better.

We’re Escrow4All, the creators of Escrow365. We’ve spent the last 20 years working as software escrow agents.
