    Audience Questions

    • 1:50:52 Kpovoc Asks
      • I’d be curious to know how often your clients have problems that might be easier solved by a custom written software vs finding an applicable existing FOSS solution?
      • Many times combining/modifying open source solutions works best
    • 1:54:30 Tony Asks
      • I'd be interested in knowing if you charge customers extra if they want to make changes to an already working solution. Would that be a charge to not have them abuse your time/technician time?
      • Managed Service Contracts
      • Hourly Service
      • What is your most popular service?
      • Access Controls and Cameras
      • Networking
    • 1:57:42 AtypicalKernel Asks
      • How do you deal with clients who don't communicate their needs clearly?
      • Discovery Process
      • R&D Phase
      • Presentation
      • Execute
      • Circle back to Discovery
      • Project Planning recommendations
      • Follow up
      • How do you deal with a client who blames the solution rather than acknowledging their own mistakes and/or short comings?
      • Teach the user
      • Help them understand the limitations of their technology
    • 2:09:30 Tony Asks
      • Are you able to share how you price a solution/support contract?
      • Price hourly
      • Contract Services are locked down

      • HID Readers
      • Proxy III
      • Adams Rite door strikes
      • Completely Modular
      • Understand your threat vector
      • HID SEOS
      • Why Noah like HID products
    • 2:19:50 Kpovoc Asks
      • Do clients pay for the discovery process?
      • No, never

    • 2:21:25 Tony Asks
      • How do you deal with a customer who comes to you asking you if you can provide a solution for something you've never done? Do you tackle it even if it is a one of?

    • 2:25:14 jutana Asks
      • You mentioned virtualization desktops , are you then using thin clients to access or low end PCs, also how do you deal with multimonitor support (SPICE?) and or USB peripherals? How are you dealing with standardizations on physical machines, imaging or other?
      • RDP in lightweight Windows 10
      • Moving away from this
      • Thinlinx
      • Continuing to explore
      • Focus is more on the back end VM
