Vendors ready to help DabbleDB customers

As long as Dabble DB is out of the game now customers must be looking for other place to move their data.

It's not pleasant to discover one day the service you relied on let you down. But the good thing is some vendors are eager to help DabbleDB customers to make the transition faster and easier. Special offers make the process less painful.

So, lets check out vendors ready to help with their special offers.

Here I made the list of web based systems for moving the data:

I wish all former DabbleDB users to make the right choice this time.

DabbleDB is out of the game

10 June 2010 Smallthought Systems, a company behind DabbleDb online database has been acquired by Twitter.

No doubt that will be a new and successful stage for Dabble DB team. So, congratulations! But does this situation really differ from going out of the business Coghead?

Is there any plan Dabble DB can offer their customers?

Unfortunately, it seems Dabble DB customers are alone with their problems now:

"We will do whatever we need to do to make sure that, at any time, you can export all of your data, including attachments, in a structured format suitable for import into other systems."

As I see it this situation has brought up the problem into question again.

Which criteria one should take into consideration choosing the SaaS vendor?

Can the vendor be trusted so one builds a business with it?
