HanseEscrow Management

HanseEscrow Management GmbH is a fiduciary escrow agency with a new security concept for software investments.  Our consulting and escrow services are aimed both at software users and at software manufacturers. Our core business is holding software source code in trust, verifying such deposits for completeness, and keeping them up to date with current program releases.

Our Concept

We don’t just deposit source code. We verify that the data in escrow is understandable, maintainable and modifiable to any qualified programmer. We call this concept “active escrow.” Furthermore, we perform consulting and mediation services to support the stakeholders in escrow negotiations. Our broad service portfolio is the most complete and client-friendly offering on the market.

Our Target Groups

By auditing both products and processes, we offer software users a new dimension in risk management. Your investment decision should be based on solid knowledge, and you should be sure you can continue to use the software you choose, regardless of emergencies. That is also why software escrow provides manufacturers with a valuable marketing argument, without endangering their trade secrets.

Because the advantages of escrow are easy to see, our business strategy is simple: we provide information, raise awareness of the risks and opportunities, and propose appropriate solutions. Escrow not only secures investments, but also helps to make the software market viable once more for small and medium-sized software suppliers.

Our Strategy

What makes us different from other agencies in the escrow field is our qualified view of technologies and processes. Our goal is not to establish “absolute security” at any cost, but to provide customized escrow packages to fit our clients’ specific risk situations. This requires a technically qualified analytical approach that recognizes and protects the interests of all stakeholders.
