From dgoulet@vicr.com Tue, 13 Feb 2001 10:57:45 -0800 From: dgoulet@vicr.com Date: Tue, 13 Feb 2001 10:57:45 -0800 Subject: Re:off topic : gathering information Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain Bjorn, We've spent the last two years trying just about every tool we could get our hands on. Some are very expensive & some pretty darn cheap. But what I noticed is that some of the expensive ones provide more glitz (namely a very fancy gui) while the cheaper ones are missing in functionality. In the end we settled on OEM and Mamba. OEM is expensive, about mid range, has good GUI's and is very functional. Mamba was very cheap (free), but did provide the read only web based functionality we wanted. If you want a successful search, first thing is to set down and list out exactly what you need and what you'd like. Then prioritize these and match then against the features of any tool you look at. The one that matches the most points in order wins.
