+1 on that. and I hate having to submit a request for a salesperson to contact me so I can get more info on the product.

my interest went from "oh wow I'd like to evaluate this tonight" to "blah. this is sure to be a grating email dialogue."

edit: ..and even though I'd be willing to buy a small license now for evaluation purposes that seems to lead to the same sales trap.



I wanted to add that someone from NGINX contacted me first thing this morning with a refreshingly personable follow-up.

So while I still object to forced-into-sales-inquiry funnels like we were discussing here.. I have to apologize for assuming they'd be bad at it. :)
