Have you ever old software to an enterprise customer? Making your product look special by offering a bazillion features they will never use is surprisingly successful.

- jsgo 8y agoIn our environment, a vendor would probably be better served to offer a no frills basics thing and then just sell customization support (or painless customization). You could probably check off every bulletpoint imaginable and then we would still have things that need customizing.
- SteveNuts 8y agoThat sounds like Atlassian's products to me. That can backfire after a few years of use when every page is customized to hell and back and no one knows how it works.

- williamchia 8y agoHi Simon, I work at GitLab. Sorry for the radio silence. I do know we prioritize follow up based on company size & order size. If a smaller company requests a few licenses it can slip through the cracks. I've tracked down your record in our CRM and am escalating to our sales team so that you get a response.
- simonturvey 8y agoThanks William. I look forward to hearing from them. We only have 10 days left on our trial.
