As a distributor and reseller, getting the best price is important. We are currently enjoying good discounts as a platinum partner, but I would like to see if we can get an even better deal. This would help us stay competitive and meet market demands more effectively. For Dell PowerProtect IDPA, we typically sell at least a three-year license, with no option for one or two years. After this period, support needs to be renewed. The license is mostly lifetime, covering both hardware and software, with the option to upgrade support. It is advisable to consider a five or seven years warranty, as it is cost-effective and beneficial for customers.
The pricing of the product is pretty reasonable. I'd rate the pricing at a three out of five in terms of affordability. Licensing is paid on a yearly basis.
