I'm just barely escaping a situation like that at my work.
Vendor sold the package as a drop in turnkey solution that had premade integrations with almost everything else we have. Get our input data formatted right and everything would "just work".
They literally had never encountered a hybrid AD or exchange environment (part on-prem part in the cloud) and I just finished bridging the gaps in their "premade integration" with those. Took nearly 6 months.
And we still aren't really done. Apparently they had never encountered any places with legal requirements for data retention either. So we're having to custom build everything for that and turn off their "clean up old data" functionality.
Bastards keep trying to set timelines on our side too and we have to keep reminding them who's paying who.
