- Extra users or admins could be added as a small add-on.
Transcript
Tom Ashdown NoneHi everyone. Good to see you all. So, we're coming up to the renewal of your contract, end of August, I think it is. Darren, how are things going?
Darren Blakey NoneYeah, all good. We're really happy with how it's been going. The team's using it regularly.
Marcus Bell NoneWe've seen solid growth in usage. Questions asked are up, people are running searches day to day. It's become part of how the team works.- Tom Ashdown NoneBrilliant. So what we wanted to do today is run through the renewal offer. Pauline, great to have you on the call. The way it works is we send you a quote for the next year, you review it with Tracey, and if it looks good, we get it signed and you're all set.
Pauline Metcalfe NoneOK. And what's the pricing looking like?- Tom Ashdown NoneSo you're on Starter tier, which is £19,500 a year. That's the same as what you're paying now, no change.
- Pauline Metcalfe NoneOK good. And the contract runs for a year?
- Tom Ashdown NoneExactly. Twelve months, runs from mid-August next year. Same terms as before, same service level. It's a straightforward renewal.
Tracey Bainbridge NoneDo you send a formal quote for us to review?- Tom Ashdown NoneI'll send that over today. It'll have all the details: price, dates, everything you need. You can review it, sign and send it back, and we're done.
- Marcus Bell NoneAnd obviously I'm here if anyone has questions about how we're running things or if you want to talk through add-ons or anything else on the product side.
- Darren Blakey NoneActually, are there any add-ons we should think about? More users, more connectors?
- Marcus Bell NoneYou're at 15 licensed users right now. If you want to add a few more admins or get other teams in, we can add extra users. Same with connectors: you're using four at the moment, and we support up to four in Starter so you're maxed out. If you wanted to add data sources, we could look at upgrading you to Growth.
- Pauline Metcalfe NoneLet's keep it as it is for now. We'll do the same contract.
- Tom Ashdown NonePerfect. So I'll get that quote over to you today, and shall we aim for signatures by early August so we've got a couple of weeks before the contract starts?
- Pauline Metcalfe NoneYeah, that works for us.
- Tom Ashdown NoneBrilliant. Cheers, everyone. I'll be in touch.
