Re: no updates?
Yep, Symantec's communication or lack of is bothering me.
If they have officially stopped shipping physical products to Gold members then I feel that a letter or email would have been sent in the least.
How are Gold members supposed to find out about patches and program updates?
I guess I could switch everyone back to the home version and then they would at least get the program updates!
I checked today to see what would be involved in order to switch from Gold to Platinum when my current support runs out in a few months.
I was shocked - It was over $10,000!!
That is actually for the Enterprise version which includes SAVCE and mail Security for MS Exchange but I'd guess the cost is very similar for the SAVCE edition only.
I have fewer than 75 users so I guess I'm stuck with Gold if I choose to stay with Symantec.
Of course now Symantec has also bought Veritas which we use for backup!! Time will tell what they do with that one!
All and all, I have been happy with SAVCE but the company policies as of late often make me wonder why. |
