I saw this one few years ago. It does look very apealing on a first look, just can't remember what was the 'catch 22' {g} on this one.
I saw price of 1000Eur which is acceptable, but don't they have also some per user / site charges as well ?

If it is only 1000e and you can freely distribute executables and data then this could be quiet interesting.

Did you buy it & How is going ?
