swissEscrow GmbH (Wolfhausen)

We are your leading software escrow provider in Switzerland. swissEscrow enables companies with proprietary software developments to become independent of the developer and gain access to the source code so that business can continue without interruption in the event of the developer's failure, thus ensuring financial stability.

The source code of software, i.e. the programming code, is the developer's trade secret. The developer always hands over the ordered, operational application to the buyer, but not the underlying source code. However, the buyer is urgently dependent on this source code in order to be able to maintain and further develop the purchased software.

And that is a problem.

If the developer fails, goes bankrupt, is taken over by a competitor or ceases to operate, the expensively purchased software can no longer be maintained and further developed. Expensive replacement investments are necessary, business interruptions and loss of sales are imminent.

The solution is software escrow.

With software escrow, companies with in-house software developments can control and minimize their control and minimize their business risks. This requires a legally secure escrow agreement and the deposit of the source code with swissEscrow. swissEscrow stores the data online in highly secure data centers in Switzerland or stores it securely on data carriers in a safe deposit box at a Swiss bank.

swissEscrow then releases the stored source code to the software buyer when one of the conditions defined in the escrow agreement has been met. This enables the buyer to maintain and further develop the software they have purchased at a high price.

Software escrow minimizes risks. With software escrow, the software buyer's business can continue without interruption even if the developer fails. Financial stability remains guaranteed.
