Well there are soo many comments on the cost of IP and other tools. when we
are a small team started working on a web based product with open source
tools, for sure we can't spend too much on the tools to protect the IP
rights. because once we deploy for few clients, if its a good product, what
if they steal the code and also ideas. i agree to have legal terms and all
that stuff. but that would be a big story for us being small.
so just wanted to see if anything available to protect our work, ideas
(ideas at code implementation level by using different opensource
technologies, well there are many companies who started like this).
anyways thanks for the comments, i would love to share if we invent anything
in this process, because small is big and it matters :)
The basic principle is : if you developed it, then it is your code, and
it is your decision what you do with it and how you sell it.
But do not forget that, more than the code itself, it is generally the
quality of the service that you provide to your customers that will matter.
But I have another suggestion for you : you indicated this product that
would allow to encrypt your code, and mentioned that it was expensive.
OK. Now, presumably, these people know why they developed it, and why
they charge the price that they do. Why do you not contact them,
explain your situation, and ask them to explain why you should pay that
price for their product ?
They must have arguments, and maybe they will convince you. Or maybe
they will offer you a discount.
