Exciting, exciting time… We’re on our final day of big time network deployments and upgrades to our network to prepare for two huge product launches that will carry OWN through the next 12-18 months. To say that we’re full in would be an understatement, particularly given my travel schedule over the next month: San Francisco, Seattle, Dallas, New York, Chicago and a few trips up and down California trying to drum up some support for what we’re doing.
And what we’re doing is a bit of old mixed in with the heck of a lot of new stuff: that is now a necessity. Allow me to demonstrate this clearly because it’s typical of our industry:
That’s a free Windows 7 antivirus program. Required no registration.
It took 5 seconds to download. Another minute and about half a dozen clicks to roll out and for it to automatically download updates and start scanning.
Still think that your business model of running around installing RMM tools and marking up software licensing is going to work in the future today? Even when it’s free? What “services” will you manage?
