I’ve been doing software development since 1996 just like you! I remember data centers and server rooms and installing Windows 95 and NT server. We had an IBM mainframe (hospital) so we had to also install Hummingbird terminal emulation software. Computers were not networked so we took CDs 💿 desk to desk !! Individual installations.

This is convenient but very high TOTAL COST OF OWNERSHIP over time. When it’s integral to the business, you’ll have reliable MRR/ARR and this is why SaaS companies have great multiples when they exit .. this transfers and it’s super valuable.
