36:50 Tim Asked
The guy with MoCA adapters that fail... He has to be sure that any splitters along the way are compatible (will pass the right frequencies). Also, if the cable is connected to CATV, he may need an in-line filter that will prevent his in-house MoCA signalling from propagating up the line to the cable company or the neighbors if the neighborhood infrastructure is old enough.

Audience Questions
1:50:52 Kpovoc Asks
I’d be curious to know how often your clients have problems that might be easier solved by a custom written software vs finding an applicable existing FOSS solution?
Many times combining/modifying open source solutions works best
1:54:30 Tony Asks
I'd be interested in knowing if you charge customers extra if they want to make changes to an already working solution. Would that be a charge to not have them abuse your time/technician time?
Managed Service Contracts
Hourly Service
What is your most popular service?
Access Controls and Cameras
Networking
1:57:42 AtypicalKernel Asks
How do you deal with clients who don't communicate their needs clearly?
Discovery Process
R&D Phase
Presentation
Execute
Circle back to Discovery
Project Planning recommendations
Follow up
How do you deal with a client who blames the solution rather than acknowledging their own mistakes and/or short comings?
Teach the user
Help them understand the limitations of their technology
2:09:30 Tony Asks
Are you able to share how you price a solution/support contract?
Price hourly
Contract Services are locked down
What access control systems do you typically deploy?
Axis A1001 Door Controller
Powerful integrations
HID Readers
Proxy III
Adams Rite door strikes
Completely Modular
Understand your threat vector
HID SEOS
Why Noah like HID products
2:19:50 Kpovoc Asks
Do clients pay for the discovery process?
No, never
Discovery benefits Altispeed not the client
2:21:25 Tony Asks
How do you deal with a customer who comes to you asking you if you can provide a solution for something you've never done? Do you tackle it even if it is a one of?
We love learning new technology
Noah loves getting to see behind the scenes
Altispeed specializes in this
Tony clarifies his previous question
We try to move to a open source solution
We still take on proprietary software to reduce friction and server the customer well
2:25:14 jutana Asks
You mentioned virtualization desktops , are you then using thin clients to access or low end PCs, also how do you deal with multimonitor support (SPICE?) and or USB peripherals? How are you dealing with standardizations on physical machines, imaging or other?
RDP in lightweight Windows 10
Moving away from this
Thinlinx
Continuing to explore
Focus is more on the back end VM
2:29:15 Tony Asks
Do you guys host email yourselves?
Not currently
Mail in a Box
2:30:31 toadrocksboat Asked
Do you provide critical 24/7 after hours support? How do you balance that with such a lean team?
Absolutely
Open Source Tooling helps us do that
