As the global leader in Software Escrow, Escode is committed to ensuring your critical software applications and source code remain safe, secure, and always available. With a deep understanding of the financial sector's unique requirements, our Sydney office offers personalised support to help protect your critical software assets.
What is Software Escrow?
A Software Escrow Agreement protects your business-critical systems and intellectual property, offering peace of mind in the face of potential software disruption like the bankruptcy of the software provider. As an independent, third-party escrow agent, we provide a secure repository and establish clear release terms, detailing the conditions under which the technology would be shared with the end user.
It works as a simple and effective arrangement with mutually agreed terms between the software customer, software supplier, and Escode, specifically designed to mitigate risk and protect the interests of all parties involved. By placing technology into escrow, the provider retains IP rights while ensuring the user has access to the software source code or other technology if needed.
