But when it comes to open, honest communications about product pricing, I always side with the customer. It's difficult to criticize open, documented prices... unless you have something to hide.

It was pretty hysterical. I think the comparison is fairly accurate. David Dennis, went to great lengths to do the research and calculations. Thanks for the kudos! Amy Hi Joe,

The IT industry has a history of hidden prices and confusing costs. Assuming your price sheet comparing OpenView to GroundWork is accurate, it's a welcome step in the right direction.
