A wise old man once told me to not disparage products on the list since
doing so would come back to haunt me. I've extended that to not
recommending products on the list either. If you have questions about the
Covast product but don't want to call Covast direct (and get caught in the
sales cycle), feel free to email or call me. We have been Covast
integrators since, well, since before they were Covast.
