Every company with more than a few hundred employees has enough projects in its pipeline for a couple of years. Copying an unproven product, no matter how great it looks, probably won't get pushed to the front of the line. Now, reversing the question, what if one of these companies launches a product similar to yours before you do?
Feels a risky strategy to just rely on them not noticing. I know a couple of competitors have signed up for our service and following on twitter etc.
