Concerning the second option:

Sometime you might find potential buyer of your company within your existing or past customers. Have you reviewed that option?

Another option, maybe your competitor could be a potential buyer too? If they have some customers they don't have or they are willing to integrate new functionalities only available in your version?

yep, but the transformation from "buy our product because they're good, we are a reliable company" to "buy the company because it is valuable but cannot survive independently" is a delicate maneuver.

Our competitor have a quite different framework, the tech integration looks complicated. They could buy us autodesk-style : to dominate the market absolutely. Not sure they have enough money for that.
