Have been working on a project for a year, something that wasn't out yet, and I am very close to finishing it... Just heard that a company has been developing the software for two years and is about to be done. #FML

That doesn't mean theirs is better.

Yep, I've been in the same situation quite recently and have still seen some good initial success.

While first to market is good, set yourself apart by being better.

There's also the opportunity to observe their product launch and learn a few dos and don'ts. Get on their mailing list :)

@pixeltherapy I was honestly thinking of just giving up on this and look for another project to start on but you and @purged are right I just have to look for something that my software has that theirs doesn't and that could be my selling point

@rodluz that's the spirit! You've gone this far with it, don't give up just when it could be a home run. 👍🏻
