9:15 am – 10:15 am, Bobcat Room | Dave Siddle

Abstract:

Trimble Catalyst GNSS is available as a subscription, which can be a challenge for some organizations to adopt. This session will provide an in-depth discussion on organization types, cost/benefit analysis, implementation struggles, and lessons learned. Three types of customer examples will be reviewed. The first involves a typical challenge with local government, “we don’t do subscriptions”. The second challenge, which is common among small businesses, “subscriptions don’t fit our business model”. Finally, we’ll look at a large business example, overcoming, “we prefer capital expenditures”.
