How to convince a company to switch their Source Control [closed]

Answer 1

The best argument would have to be the reason why you want them to switch to subversion. :)

I know absolutely nothing about VSS, but the phrase "if it ain't broken don't fix it" comes to mind. You have to show your managers that VSS is broken and needs fixing. Even better if you can show management how it would save them money.

Answer 2

I've previously written about why VSS is not a good idea. You might be able to gain some information from that. Also this article and this one contain further information.

VSS 2005 has papered over some of the cracks in 6.0, but not in a particularly convincing way. The same brain-dead foundation remains.
