Note there is a slice of B2C products that are sold like he is thinking. I wanted a subscription to Polypane, got a free trial and ultimately my administrative assistant punched in our P-card number to their web site. I had to fill out paperwork to satisfy one of New York’s largest private employers, but the burden was all on me —- though there would have been no free trial for a product that didn’t exist and the paperwork wouldn’t have been so simple if it didn’t.

Hey, Polypane founder here hoping to get feedback and iterate ;)

Needing to fill in the paperwork for a saas is a PITA. Is there anything I could add to the site or elsewhere that would have made that easier for you?

My Uni has site licenses for many products such as Snagit 2025 and if I want a license for that the skids are greased. You did everything right from the viewpoint of an early adopter, in the future I guess your sales people could talk to our Central IT and negotiate something, if you send me an email I could try to find out how you would talk to.
