Pre sales Telephone Contact with VB?
 

Hi from Ireland.

I am about to spend upwards of €2*500 with VB to upgrade some old licences and purchase new licences for a raft of new websites in development.

While the updated FAQs (suggestion - add the new FAQs to the Pre-sales Forum as a sticky !!!!!) are at least some what clearer on the price structures for expired/ current and new licences* there is still considerable confusion about which actual products (if any) I get today if I upgrade today.

The CMS element of VB4 would be a must have for the new sites that I am developing* for roll out in coming weeks* however I can't wait that long and I am not going to redesign my websites to integrate the CMS whenever VB4 launches. I'll be very interested in VB4 Suite when it is launched and can be integrated into the overall design of any new websites I build.

I therefore conclude that I need to purchase immediate 3.83 upgrades for my expired licence sites and new 3.83 installations for my imminent new websites. I don't need and will never need VB4 Suite for any of these sites at retrofitting CMS will be more trouble than it is worth. Can I now (today) purchase VB3.83 software (albeit in the guise of a pre purchase order of basic VB4)?

I have been asking this question now for over 2 weeks in the old forums (all closed) without any reply from VB sales staff. In the absense of a reply from VB to clear up the uncertainty* I have already* for time constraints* made a first purchase from a rival forum software company for the first of my new sites.

Is there a telephone number or skype that I can call from Ireland to talk in person to a VB sales person?

A quick personal chat will avoid going around and around in circles and will probably yield a nice order for VB from an old and loyal (but loyalty and patience being sorely tried!!) customer. I really do want to stay with VB but am severely hampered by all of the uncertainty and confusion that they have generated.

Could I please request that my fellow customers on here refrain from answering this post until a real V Bulletin staff member first replies in detail?


Kind regards*

Stuart
