"Our clients are national, provincial and regional government bodies, various hospitals and professional service providers. Many of these clients already had an existing Escrow agreement. We have now drawn up a new framework agreement with Escrow Europe, which means that not only these clients, but all our clients are automatically included in the arrangement. The source code of our CORSA product portfolio for record, document, workflow and content management is deposited with Escrow Europe and is verified every year using Level III verification."

"For many of our clients in the public sector and industry, their document management system is a business-critical solution. This is reason why our clients look for additional security and continuity. An escrow arrangement can play a very important part in that. We have been doing business with Escrow Europe for about 8 years. They have a great deal of knowledge on "storing" source code, they concentrate on this field and they definitely have a positive business attitude. Safeguarding source code and arranging a continuity guarantee is a specialisation, complex both legally and in ICT terms. Escrow Europe takes care of it for you, takes you by the hand and allows you the time you need to get up to speed. Escrow Europe actually made the escrow arrangement easily accessible, "uncomplicated." Nowadays, this type of service is an intrinsic part of professional software development."

As a financial service provider, Delta Lloyd offers its clients a broad range of products and services, from simple savings products to complicated insurance products and financial planning. Delta Lloyd focuses on the client, both in its relationships with consumers and organisations and with intermediaries and suppliers. In our company, ICT plays a crucial role.
We offer our clients financial security. That is why we place high demands on the continuity of the services our suppliers provide, both the large players in the market and the smaller ones, who often provide very specific software and ASP solutions. Thanks to an active escrow arrangement, we can confidently initiate collaboration with these innovative ICT firms, which are often start-ups.
"We have an active Escrow arrangement with Escrow Europe. The source code of our products is deposited with Escrow Europe and is updated regularly. We are a serious company with very experienced specialists; a small company with large clients. We were often asked about continuity, particularly in large projects. Clients ask for security and we need to be able to offer them that. Our collaboration with Escrow Europe is pleasant and agreeable; Escrow Europe is prepared to invest in us and is extremely knowledgeable."
Jerlijn Kasmani, Marketing Director
"I have known Escrow Europe for some time now, even before I joined Westbury. Escrow Europe's international character appealed to us immediately. We have clients in the Netherlands, Belgium, the United Kingdom, Switzerland, Spain and the US, so we want the Escrow arrangement to be supported internationally where possible. The clients of our product Report Manager, a reporting tool for IT service desks, are mainly multinationals, with over 500 workstations where our product is used to ensure that the core business takes place without a hitch. As a small organisation, you need to show large organisations that you have thought about continuity guarantees and that you can provide security and quality."

"We develop software for storing, searching and publishing XML documents. In our product, X-Hive/DB, we store not only the document, but also the structure of the document. If we take a book as an example, not only the contents, but also the structure of the book, the chapter and paragraph organisation, the author, etc. are all stored. This makes it easier to search in a document. Our clients are System Integrators and Value Added Resellers in Europe and America. One of our clients asked us to deposit the sources in the form of an Escrow contract, and that is how we ended up at Escrow Europe. An escrow arrangement is now a standard part of our contracts."
