    • presentation of the product including all features relevant to the customer
    • determine customer´s goals (replace webmail? operating parallel to MS Exchange?)
    • OX USPs: Fast even with many mails, drag-n-drop in the browser, syncing with many different clients, social, upsell
    • demo-systems could be http://ox.io, https://ox6-dev.open-xchange.com, own VM -> 2 users and some data are needed
