Here’s a useful guide to how little you could pay for HP iQuote. HP iQuote is a cloud application – here’s the commercial model.

Free Access
Many, many HP Partners use HP iQuote without paying for the service at all:

• Any Authorized HP Distributor can access a free version of HP iQuote called “No-IT”.
• Many Distributors offer Resellers free access to HP iQuote through their Web Stores or through our Universal/Clone Services.

Subscription
The subscription for HP iQuote costs $800 per Month. Within that subscription there are free Banner Advertisements to generate margin for the Host. Given there are free versions why would a HP Distributor or Reseller pay the subscription and become a Host? The 2 main reasons are:

1. To deploy a customer system a Distributor or Reseller must be a Host.
2. To control the stock and price shown in HP iQuote you must be a Host.

HP Partners that operate in multiple countries can apply for Framework pricing and this will reduce the cost per country. Either way the Return on Investment is there.
