Absolutely. Don't get me wrong, we aren't ever looking to 'push' a solution on a client. However, most clients see 'gmail is free' and 'i know gmail' and fail to see the whole picture. In a sales meeting its not always suitable to dredge through the list of feature sets of both, and compare and contrast.
I was really looking for ways of helping the client understand the pros and cons of both, even if sometimes some clients need more help than others. -----Original Message----- From: Rod Trent [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 24 January 2008 20:46 To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: [OT] Gmail in the workplace I think he's also concerned about his revenue -- so, he's looking for pros and cons. -----Original Message----- From: Ben Scott [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, January 24, 2008 3:35 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Re: [OT] Gmail in the workplace On Jan 24, 2008 3:03 PM, Oliver Marshall <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Now, we mainly deal with web companies, and one thing we have > noticed is that '2.0' companies just aren't swayed by the usual > feature set of SBS 2003. So? Too bad for Microsoft, I guess, but if the best tool for that client's need isn't SBS, then trying to sell them on SBS just because it's SBS is clearly the wrong thing to do. -- Ben ~ Upgrade to Next Generation Antispam/Antivirus with Ninja! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbelt-software.com/SunbeltMessagingNinja.cfm> ~ ~ Upgrade to Next Generation Antispam/Antivirus with Ninja! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbelt-software.com/SunbeltMessagingNinja.cfm> ~ ~ Upgrade to Next Generation Antispam/Antivirus with Ninja! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbelt-software.com/SunbeltMessagingNinja.cfm> ~
