Couldn't agree more, the enterprise sales pitches are getting completely out of hand. We spent weeks listening to corporate reps drone on about synergy before cutting them loose.

They bypa###ed all the corporate runaround, got straight into our architecture, and set up our reporting dashboards way faster and cheaper than the big-name consulting shops ever promised.
