How do you handle a situation where a client is concerned about Vendor Lock-in?
Explain how you would uncover the specific source of the concern, position Palo Alto Networks solutions credibly, and avoid making unsupported promises. Address how you would discuss portability, interoperability, data ownership, contract terms, migration options, and the trade-offs of standardizing on platforms such as Prisma Cloud, Cortex XSIAM, or Strata. Include the language you would use with the customer and how you would document next steps.
