An escrow agreement is a legal arrangement in which an independent third party — such as Escrow4all — safely stores critical source code, data, or documentation until predefined conditions are met (e.g., vendor bankruptcy or a prolonged service outage). This safeguards business continuity for the end‑user while protecting the vendor’s intellectual property.
Escrow4all focuses exclusively on software and data escrow: source‑code, SaaS, and cloud deposits with optional verification services. For pure financial escrow (e.g., funds held in real‑estate transactions) we cooperate with certified civil‑law notaries and can introduce you to a suitable partner on request.
Consider escrow if your organisation is dependent on:
Mission‑critical software or cloud services provided by a third‑party vendor;
Regulatory or tender requirements mandating business‑continuity measures;
High‑integrity data (HR, healthcare, financial) that must remain accessible at all times;
SaaS solutions without an on‑premise fallback option.
Escrow acts as a safety net to guarantee continuity and compliance.
Pricing depends on three variables:
Type of deposit — source‑code, SaaS, data‑only, or custom.
Verification depth — from basic checksum to full build & functional testing.
Number of releases per year — each update triggers a new verification cycle.
As a guideline, a standard source‑code escrow with annual verification starts at € 1,850 per year. SaaS escrow with continuous monitoring typically ranges between € 2,750 and € 5,500 per year, excl. VAT. All fees are set out transparently in a multi‑year quotation.
Trigger event — e.g., bankruptcy, prolonged downtime, or contract breach.
Documentation check — we confirm the event meets the contract’s conditions.
Release decision — with consent from all entitled parties (or a court), the deposit is released.
Handover & support — the beneficiary receives the material plus optional technical assistance to restore or continue operations quickly.
