Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"The software subscription model can be once a year, or every three years, or every five years."
"It comes with a higher cost and it is an all-inclusive solution."
"The price is a bit high."
"We try to use perpetual licensing, and there are no additional costs. They have recently moved to universal licensing, which is more expensive, and I would like them to go back to host licensing."
"The license cost is per socket, per processor. We can have one license with two processors and we can cover everything inside of the test environment that we have."
"We are on an annual license for Veeam Backup Replication. We could expand or upgrade the license for the Office365 features. Next year we might go to a three-year plan for support on license."
"I don't pay for the solution, so I can't comment on the cost."
"They could work at providing a better price."
