<h3>FAQ</h3>
<div class="section" id="why-should-we-pay-for-support-for-software-that-costs-us-nothing">
<h4>Why should we pay for support for software that costs us nothing?</h4>
<ol class="arabic simple">
<li>Efficiency. A few questions to our team could eliminate a two week
investigation about capabilities or feasibility of an approach. The time
and resource cost of that is not worth the investment, especially in the
exploratory phase of development.</li>
<li>Reach. The Hobu team's experience in the open source geospatial industry means
it can give you leads, answers to difficult questions, or put you in
contact with the exact specialized expertise you might need. Your team doesn't
have the time to build that reputation.</li>
<li>Influence. Open source software lives and dies by attention, and you are
buying attention to your problems with your subscription.</li>
<li>Risk. Unless your team is directly investing its time in the software
itself, it doesn't know the development roadmap, which features are not well
attended to, or what future development priorities might impact your
operating applications. If your systems only depend upon the software at a
single point in time, support is not needed, but if you hope to benefit from
the continued evolution of the tools you chose to build upon, knowing (or
shaping) the future is valuable risk mitigation.</li>
</ol>

<div class="section" id="can-t-we-just-hire-you-hourly">
<h4>Can't we just hire you hourly?</h4>
<p>Our contract minimum for hourly-based development activity is a total
engagement of $20,000 USD.</p>
</div>
<div class="section" id="we-can-quit-any-time-we-want">
<h4>We can quit any time we want?</h4>
<p>Yep, but so can we. Think of it as a low risk engagement for both sides. If
your team isn't getting the value out of it you need, simply notify us
you plan to discontinue.</p>
</div>
<div class="section" id="only-teams-or-slack">
<h4>Only Teams or Slack?</h4>
<p>Well, email is fine too, but the best way to support your team is at the moment
they are active with the software tools, and this is commonly supported through
some kind of chat software.</p>
</div>
<div class="section" id="can-t-we-just-ask-our-questions-on-a-mailing-list">
<h4>Can't we just ask our questions on a mailing list?</h4>
<p>Of course, but no one owes you an answer. We will respond, and if we don't know
the answer, we will reach out to our contacts in the community to try and find
one for you.</p>
