738.0. "HSM references?" by NQOS01::bfo7.bfo.dec.com::leffler () Wed Jun 04 1997 05:01

I am working on a large Networker HSM opportunity for a major 
customer. The deal is coming near to closure now and the customer has 
some major concerns: the fact that this is the 1st release of 
Networker HSM from Digital, what will it's quality be, and the lack 
of references.

Does anyone have any information that I can pass on to my customer to 
put his fears to rest? Even internal testimonials would be better 
than nothing.

This is a long time Digital customer who has suffered through some 
"so-so" 1st releases, hence his apprehension. This is also a very 
strategic deal, with an existing turbolaser cluster upgrade and 
several new servers at stake.

The competition is Veritas' OpenVision on Sun. This is Q4 business 
and we need to do everything we can to close this.

Any info greatly appreciated,
Mark
