Default Re: SecureClient License question

I got a count now and I was way off the mark. I have recently received quotes for 100 and 250 users from my VAR/CP when I discovered that I really just need to buy another 1000 and get it over with for a while...

But now, I can't find the list price for SecureClient on the CP website!?! WTF?!?! Why is it always a battle with the ever *%$*&^# changing licensing model and this company. As the end user in an enterprise environment that was originally started when CP was still v4.1, it's bad enough already just trying to keep up; half of my SKU codes are so old many SE's don't even know what features are available for my stuff without looking it up. I can't imagine what you vendors go through.

Also, while I'm on this rant, let me also say that we get a raw deal on upgrades. I pay mucho dinero for software maintenance and what does that get me - the latest release... OOOHHHHH, look, I can go from R60 to R65 for "free" and that's about it. What about my 2 Unlimited SCS licenses (plus HA) that were top of the line when we purchased them... Now there are features available that I'm told 'you have to upgrade your licenses' and then they offer me a crappy trade-in deal where I can't even get 100% value for the trade-in just so I can have new stuff. Why do I pay so much money for software maintenence on a top of the line license when it will be virtually neutered within 2 years because of all the new features I won't have?!?


OK, sorry for the rant but I had to get it out of my system. If anyone is still reading and you can tell me what they've done with SecureClient on the price list, I would appreciate it.
