Buyer checklist
What does this mean when choosing software?
Before signing a contract, ask how you would leave the service. Separate three things:
Your seven-point exit checklist
Request an example data export.
Ask what application code is exportable.
List third-party services needed to keep the app running.
Get written terms for migration support.
Check notice periods and applicable fees.
Test the export and restoration process.
Identify what the new host must provide.
