Nicholas Wautier commented on: Centralized Renewal Management

Just bumping this post up to the top again... I may have posted it over a year ago, but my opinion hasn't changed. As an inside salesperson who manages the renewals of over 600 customer accounts, I've learned that the vendors ...

Nicholas Wautier commented on: Please Share Whether Or Not You Have A Current Support Agreement With Symantec

As a Symantec reseller sitting in an inside sales position, I rarely am involved in technical discussion. When I do have technical questions, I usually can provide the answers or get them from my sales contacts at Symantec and Ingram Micro.

How does the new installation help with license management? I couldn't find anything in the linked FAQ document.

Nicholas Wautier commented on: Great Idea for Improve Symantec Vision "Segways!!!"

nice one... but I don't think anyone wants to cover the cost of the segways, or the insurance required to use them in this capacity.

I'm on Twitter and Facebook... Facebook doesn't seem nearly as useful as Twitter so far, but I'm probably doing it wrong :P

Nicholas Wautier commented on: iPad - First the Hype, Now the Threat

Have any other partners been able to offer the iPad to their customers? I was disappointed to find out that none of our distributors could supply any in this generation.

Nicholas Wautier commented on: Customer renewals - how does a partner take advantage?

I often find that I get the best results when sending a renewal quote to a customer between 45 and 30 days before expiration. In the event that you fall behind, or the customer is slow to issue a PO, there is a 90-day window to get the ...

Good thing for you we haven't been all that active yet... ;) Just wait till this takes off and you get to "Automate" your thousands of partners' point totals... I'd start asking for a raise ;)

Nicholas Wautier commented on: iPad - First the Hype, Now the Threat

I thought you were going to talk about the risks of using an iPad / iPod / Apple without protection. You'd think with all the market share they've gained recently that more Apple attacks would've pop up by now.

Nicholas Wautier commented on: Customer renewals - how does a partner take advantage?

When we place orders with Distribution, we get a copy of the license certificate sent to us by e-mail. I track these certificates in a simple Access 2010 database which automatically e-mails customers 90, 60, and 30 days before ...

You can also do 125 licenses for two years cheaper than 125 for 1 year.

Nicholas Wautier posted: Centralized Renewal Management

Since you have Salesforce.com for us to perform opportunity registrations, couldn't you assign our renewal opportunities to us as well? It would be great to have a single web portal where we can enter our forecasts and track our registrations & renewals. Just bumping this post up t

Did you know that it is cheaper for an education customer renewing more than 147 licenses to buy up to the 250 level than to simply renew? This spreadsheet will help you decide whether you should buy extra licenses you don't need to get into a better pricing tier. EndpointCalc.x

Nicholas Wautier posted: BUE Support for legacy Novel?

I need a solution I have several customers that are still clinging to their Novel Netware servers. How can I keep these servers backed up while staying on a Symantec software platform?

Nicholas Wautier commented on: Connecting to Remote NetWare Agents with BE12.5 (ex. BE9.2 user)

Just curious, what version of NetWare are you running? I am unable to find proof anywhere that the Backup Exec Agent for NetWare will work with legacy netware. I'm affraid that it's designed for Novel's Linux offerings and won't be compatable ...
