    Information Not Available
  • "The pricing is reasonable, it's comparable with the competitors."
  • "We were upgraded to Premium Support without their actually asking us, when we were quoted. Then I asked for Standard Support and that they had to re-quote us that. But they don't do that by default. They upcharge you by default, which I didn't think was very nice, without even asking."
