This is my first post in this forum and I am doing this because I was unable to find or get a good answer.
The question concerns the pricing of only a couple of Thinapp end-point licenses to be used for small companies.
I am a self-employed package engineer and as such I am usually contracted by large companies to help with project involving application virtualization.
In these projects, everything that has to do with the purchase of the relevant hard&software has already been done by the customer organization.
However, next to this, I also perfrom IT-support for a number of small companies, which usually have no more than 5-15 users per company. For these companies, I usually do not spend any more than just a few hours per month at most in giving all kinds of IT-support, ranging from installing a new desktop, software, solving a printer problem to whatever comes along.
I think many people will be familiar with this setup.
Now, most of the, performing software upgrades usually takes most of the time. Going from desktop to desktop, upgrading software etc. can take a lot of time, even if the task is relatively simple.
As a package engineer, the idea of having ONLY to (re)package a Thinapp application, storing it on a fileserver-share and publishing the necessary shortcuts would save a lot of time.
However, I seem to be unable to find out how much it would cost a company to purchase just (and only just) 5-15 Thinapp licenses.
The biggest selling point of a Thinapp app, in my view, is the simple fact that it is agentless. Uses don't need anything but the Thinapp package itself.
In my opinion, this gives it a enormous advantage over MS AppV - ESPECIALLY FOR SMALL COMPANIES !!
How many companies are out there which have no more than 5-25 people in the office and who have outsources their IT to cut costs?
These companies usually have perhaps 1-2 servers, a range of desktops (usually older models), one switch and an internet-router. And that's usually it.
They don't want to spent a fortune on IT. So they end up doing it the 'old' way, a simple server and local desktops, running the OS it came with.
So, my very simply and basic question is this:
How much would 5 to 15 Thinapp (end-point) licenses cost??
