Wow. That’s some serious passive aggressive BS, if that really is the reason. Their sales team is really obnoxious and pushy from my limited experience. But that’s pretty true of most sales teams I’ve interacted with.
- nerdponx 6y agoSounds more like said pushy salesperson didn't realize the OP would actually get email with that name attached.
- sosodev 6y agoI’ve also had a bad experience with Cloudflare’s sales team. I was testing out their workers platform very shortly after its initial release when I got an email from a guy at Cloudflare claiming to be looking for user feedback on workers. I agreed to talk to him and he continued to pretend it wasn’t a sales call. The minute the call started it was clear he didn’t want to hear anything I had to say about workers and began pressing me to tell him where I worked. I told him and the conversation immediately turned into “what can I do to get you guys a contract for workers?” The whole interaction was unsettling for me. Seems like a pretty sleezy sales tactic.
- CraftThatBlock 6y agoI can also echo this. I was interesting in one of there products (can't remember which) and after a call where I said I was interested, and they never emailed me back, even after I sent a follow up. The self-serve platform is great and I wish all products were self-serve, because dealing with sale teams is very annoying when you're just trying to evaluate a product.
- Wouter33 6y agoSame experience here. He didn't listen to my feedback and didn't answer any of the Workers-related question i emailed him on his request.
- 0xy 6y agoSame interaction for me too. I think this is a widespread tactic on their sales team.
