Hi,

I was wondering what the general opinion of the CASA assessment scheme is?

I submitted 2 "utility" apps to Marketplace, I had to respond to several rounds of queries, which I've done, and now the latest response for both apps is that I'm required to take a CASA Tier 2 security assessment. AFAIK, I'll have to pay a minimum of $675 per app, I think. Then I guess I'll have to claw back the cost via a per user charge.

Do members of the community have apps that have been through this process? Is there a real earning potential?

I'll be interested to hear people's thoughts..

The question of which restricted scope is currently in use is essential, as there is often a viable workaround that allows for the use of sensitive scopes instead. Exploring these alternatives can frequently simplify the verification process while maintaining the necessary functionality and avoid CASA.

Thank you Waqar - yes, workarounds were explored ... has anyone been through the CASA process? I'm intrigued as to whether or not they felt it was worthwhile and if it added value to their products. I'm probably going to take the plunge with one of my apps, I'll do some tidying up first though.
