That is a good point; having some code to look at (or even copy) before writing my first ticketing application could have easily saved me a few hundred hours. Still, $65/mo seems a bit much. Best of luck, though.
Exactly. If you value yourself at $65 p/hour or more, that's a few hundred months of paying Chargify to break even.
I am as optimistic about my software product as anyone, but I need the break even point to be sooner than that if I am going to spend the time coding.
This is also completely discounting the fact that they probably have a more comprehensive system that you wrote, it's all they do. They keep updating it too.
