[ovirt-users] Agentless Backup update: Trilio Vault, pay $7500

Back in June of 2018, I posted regarding Agentless backup solutions. Greg Sheremeta replied & mentioned Trilio. The rest of the story...well just read on... These guys at Trilio have turned out to be a complete waste of time. (I could use some more colorful language) After my post & reply from Greg Sheremeta, I followed up with Trilio. A lot of promises/dates were made (by Trilio) as to when a beta would be made available for testing. Needless to say, they never came through. Finally in Dec 2018, they said we are ready for the demo, we will show you a working product. The day came, Trilio said, sorry it's too close to Xmas, we will postpone the demo's till 2019. In 2019, I continued to follow up & finally they set a date for another demo - Jan 29. On Jan. 29, we get on the Webex, they said, sorry the demo just broke 10 mins prior to our call, so no demo. They show me some screenshots & their OpenStack version & again promise to get me beta software in a few days. I continue to follow up (via email) Yesterday (Feb 6), I get an email from Thomas Lahive GM; Sales and Alliance Partners....(copied & pasted below): "We started RHV betas and decided to prioritize current Trilio customers (those that purchased Triliovault for Openstack).  If you would like to be part of the beta now then We can sign you up as a certified Trilio reseller which has a $7,500 Starter Fee. The $7,500 will be credited against your first customer order that is at least $7,500 so it will eventually cost you nothing. Many of our partners can apply the fee against revenue so it's a great tax incentive, but you can confirm with your finance department.   Please Lmk how you would like to proceed." Please remember, I have never seen a working demo of this product, never. Is this typical behavior of RH partners?
