We were able to negotiate a 3% uplift instead of the 6% they had baked in.

vendr

Since we had a competitive bid, and expected growth, they pulled out different incentives to bring us onboard, including free users, a 30% discount on support, a lower uplift (4% instead of 6%), as well as friendlier semi-annual payment terms.
