Well if your company wants to get serious about AJAX be prepared to blow some serious dough. Because you'll of course want to boost the productivity of your developers by using IDE's, tools, libaries, out of the box components, etc...
E.g the TIBCO Ajax Accelerator/General Interface starts at $25K.

Thanks Daniel, Dave
Dave, it might be in alpha, but it is still excelent leverage that can
be used today. If a big client goes for an expensive Ajax framework
for all 2006 then good bye to selling flex for a whole year. I don't
want that to happen.
I certainly understand that, but it's kind of tough to do a price
comparison, in my opinion. Flex is, to an extent, a shrink-wrapped
product with a known price tag. AJAX products aren't the result of
using a product that has a price tag -- the true cost is in the
development/debugging hours. Sure, there are AJAX libraries that
certainly help out, but it's not really the same. Scott Barnes has
some excellent blog entries ( www.mossyblog.com, specifically
http://www.mossyblog.com/archives/454.cfm) with some AJAX/DHTML vs.
Flex development anecdotes, which I personally feel are more
indicative of the true "cost" rather than looking at price tags.
Regards,
Dave.
