[ZendTo] Re: Windows client?

[Marlon R Deerr]

Although I haven't been running this in production yet, I would say I am in a similar situation as Craig. We have around 42 users and a $10/person license would seem reasonable for us or maybe a flat fee for a yearly maintenance for unlimited users.

We're you thinking of an annual, monthly or one time license fee? If it is a one time fee are you including maintenance or is that additional?

If it is a one time expense then I could probably get them to spend up to $10 per license (or $300 total)
