charge $125,000.00 for just the GEMS software. Great sales job
though, if you're able to get that much for the software. But it would be
great just to see the $45,000.00 list price charged for every account.
I believe the software is worth at least that if not more. Don't you? Ian -----

acrobat Let's see, we
charge anywhere from $25,000 to $125,000 for GEMS in our proposals. We
need to be able to do the electronic pdf files. All of our GEMS clients
pretty much need to do this. Therefore we should be including the
pdfwriter driver in with our distribution. If we can get the driver
itself, great. If we have to buy the entire Acrobat license to get it
that's ok too, realizing that the product in which it is imbedded may cost $250
- $400 or something like that. Not doing it is costing us more
than $250 helping the customer get the product themselves and helping them
install it. I would
suggest you tell us (sales) how much the product is, begin including it
immediately as a standard part of our install release, and let the sales people
charge for this in their configuration portions of the proposal. This is
not a big deal. Sales will charge whatever you tell us for the product
cost to get it into our install. Done. -----

acrobat it
might be worth discussing with the sales team if you should configure the cost
of Acrobat into your RFP's with all the requests we are getting to pint the
SOVC in pdf format... unless we decide to include the PDF writer into gems just
a thought Tari
