This is not to take anything away from ecotools but I was put off by them for two reasons:
- Their *starting* price was $25,000 which seems steep to me for a product whose value is going to be determined as it is used. Who knows what is going to come along next year? It is just too high to take a chance on.
- It does not run on SCO unix. It will monitor databases under SCO BUT as I understand it you must have a least one of some OTHER type of machine like SUN or DEC. We are an SCO shop because be believe it offers the best price/performance (hardware and software combo) so this is the knockout punch for ecotools for us.
