I remember when Quip were on Appsumo and I went for it but couldn’t understand why they were doing lifetime deals. Then several months later Salesforce came along with a $300m acquisition and it all made sense - user base.

That said I will generally avoid ‘award winning’ software I’ve never heard of (after buying one Appsumo product I realised the software was a dud) and I also avoid any critical services (lifetime 10Tb cloud backup for $5... no way)
