In B2B sales something that can happen with extension of free trials is that companies doing window shopping, doing competitive analysis, or who aren’t motivated to find a solution to an immediate need (don’t fit the ideal customer profile) and essentially don’t intend to buy will do half-hearted integration and extend trials. It’s a runaround which ends up costing your sales organization valuable time and effort.
Usually it’s just a matter of the implementers on the prospect side not prioritizing the effort.
A free trial should usually be followed by a proof of value where both parties are committed to implementing the solution in a realistic way with the expectation of a signed contract if the proof of value delivers on the customer requirements.
This could be something to be careful of if that applies to you.
