Thanks for that detailed response. ARGOS definitely feels more like an Enterprise / larger SMB product, unfortunately, I think this is mostly due to where people are really feeling "the need" for cloud security. I had many conversations with smaller organisations / startups and most of them said that they could not spend money on something like cloud security (AV and Firewall was #1 spend in those conversations, very interesting) or sometimes even didn't believe that cloud security was a problem ("doesn't Microsoft/Amazon take care of this for me?"). So, as much as I'd like to help smaller organisations, it seems only at a certain size do people really recognise this as a problem. What do you think? Also, what made the site "targeted at Enterprise" in your opinion? Also, yes, ARGOS is, for now, only public cloud, no private cloud. Thanks again.

What made me think it was for enterprise was as the few other commentators have said: pricing, wordings, and … lack of the superficial First wave demo. This is the thorny issue that nearly plagues every marketing/sales. Assuming that my own restrictive criteria were cast aside, I would be even more intrigue by some example eyeball-catching (and perhaps semi-interactive) faux outputs. For me, this would prompt me to contact you for more details of which i expect a set of authentication info for me to visit and look around as well as take a call for some Q and As. Again, this last step is the fishing lure that enables those who are severely time-constraint to make that “last judgement” to bite that marketers and sales ever so want to cast … and snag. However, enterprise folks may have more time on their hand (as opposed to SMB-like folks) and may make that push to elicit for a more personal feedback … without that semi-interactive demo. Of course, the real danger to any demo is the lack of differentiation from what they already may have could translate to lost sales opportunity.

  Thanks for the further details. Did you see the short video on the first page? It's a bit further down and might need to be pulled up. We have two other videos under "Resources/Videos" as well. I am currently working on a "longer demo video" that shows ARGOS's full potential and differentiation.

    During my initial and only viewing of the landing page (save for FAQ and Features), no, I did not see a video. Will visit again.
