5k would get him the installer. Anyone could install the program, it doesn't need a server or anything.

He isn't getting the source code, just the executable. I also don't want to have to deal with licensing since that could complicate everything.

I really don't think it will save them much money, just aggravation. That's why I am having trouble pricing it. It is difficult to put a price on aggravation...

I think aggravation is a great problem to solve and there's definitely value in that. Ultimately, it's a matter of how much the customer values your product and how well it solves their problem.

If your customer is aggravated because a certain process takes forever to complete, and your product cuts that time in half, allowing the customer to concentrate on other money making parts of their business...then there is definitely a price on aggravation.
