If anything, I would take personal commitment of the chief programmer as 
better and more trustworthy indicator for longevity too.

In the past many GPs have experienced personally how even the largest 
companies are no protection - at all I may say (look at MIMS script or the 
indemnity insurance disaster for example)

Ultimately trustworthy is however whoever puts the source code at least in 
escrow, to be released automatically whenever the product is discontinued for 
whatever reason.
