I don't know


I use a similar question to all the sales guys that bombard my office saying they have the latest and greatest. I just ask them for a situation where their product wouldn't be the best choice. If they can't answer that they are either lying or don't know the product (and competition) well enough.

No product solves everything. If it did the price would be too high and then the correct answer is "when your budget can't afford my great product." Don't be scared to say you sell a premium product for a premium price - just understand that all projects don't need premium.
