Hey,
Some material around the acquisition and what it means for Pact.
https://docs.pact.io/blog/2022/04/06/pactflow-joins-smartbear
and PactFlow’s sentiment towards open source and the positioning of Pact
https://pactflow.io/blog/why-build-an-open-source-company/
TL;DR - We want it to be accessible to as many people as possible, but we also understand that larger enterprise customers who make the world work, also want the additional features and support that commercial tools such as PactFlow and ReadyAPI provide.
SmartBear for example also SoapUI, the open source alternative to ReadyAPI.
There is a plethora of documentation supporting these tools, on both of their own sites, and in others own words.
Happy to answer any specific questions 👍
