Cisco Confidential – FOR INTERNAL USE ONLY 20 How to Handle Customer Objections We already have Asset Management tools (Prime LMS – Solar Winds) Those are great tools that are complimented by SNTC, SNTC provides ease of access to Contract data, status, consolidation, delta reporting and other features that compliment the asset management capabilities offered by those other tools. I have a good handle on my Cisco Inventory. Reply: But do you have the same handle on your contract status? Few customers do. Could you benefit from a detailed report showing the current, accurate contract status for each device in your network? We dont allow Collectors on our network. Reply: SNTC currently has over 1000 customers globally, in every industry and customer size. Many of those customers had similar concerns until they spoke to our security Subject Matter Expert and our Collector Security Team. Would you be willing to speak with them so they can understand and address your concerns?
