[QUOTE="ForgottenSeer 97327, post: 1053209"] It does not matter what kind of paid service you offer on top of a free product, it still makes it a freemium product. Comodo sold it's certificate business and Xcitium does not seem to grow much ([URL='https://pitchbook.com/profiles/company/83373-31#timeline']when you look at pitchbook[/URL]) [ATTACH type="full" alt="1692076712437.png"]277846[/ATTACH] Customers are reasonably satified with Xcitium[URL='https://pitchbook.com/profiles/company/83373-31#timeline'] on Gartner's peer review[/URL] (which is a leading consultancy firm in the Enterprise market). But does not do so well when you compare their NPS-score with [URL='https://www.gartner.com/reviews/market/endpoint-protection-platforms/vendor/malwarebytes/product/endpoint-security']Malwarebytes Enterprise[/URL] (and they only have a tenth of the number of reviews compared to Malwarebytes). Furthermore Xcitium has no recent reviews, which seems to confirm that they are not growing as estimated by Pitchbook.
