I have come across an unusual situation, at least it is a situation
that I have not come across in the past 10 years of doing this EDI
thing.
I purchased a certain software and upon receiving the software, the
installation instructions for this software was not included. It did
include a LOT of advertising for their other offerings, but nothing
on the installation of the product. I thought this was quite odd
since even extrememly simple programs include some kind of
installation instructions.
I contacted the sales rep on many occasions asking to receive the
installation instructions. When that was refused, I asked the rep to
verify what the current version of this software was supposed to be
so that I could verify that I have received the current version. That
also has been refused.
This is what I have been offered, I can purchase 10 hours of support
so that they can install it for me (what happens when I have system
failure as I did just recently and had to replace my HDD??) or I can
receive a refund for the purchase. I am obviously going to request a
refund, the software is useless to me without being able to install
it.
Has anyone else come across a company that will not provide software
version or installation instructions without paying $2,000 in
unneeded support? Or have I just been spoiled by Sterling Commerce,
Inovis, etc that they actually provide installation instructions as
well as the software version that you have received?
Thanks!!
