Only products with which we have had extensive experience are considered for recommendation. In order to receive our recommendation the product and the company must meet the following:
Established and proven history of successful implementation.
Demonstrated core value of service to the customer. This is much more than just a good warranty. This requires a commitment on the part of the company's personnel to the customer's success.
Comprehensive solution. The product must meet all reasonable requirements thereby eliminating the need to "stack" different products in order to arrive at the total solution.
Proven understanding of the customer's need.
Ethical standards that would lead them to say "our product doesn't fit" when that is the correct answer.
