I tried the eval version too and it's concept is simple and straight to the point. Very clean and understandable interface.
The prices however are totally overpriced considering that it's "nothing but" a fancy GUI for the NT Perfmon.
 
The Price for SpotLight for Exchange was something like 3500$ per server or something in that range. It was also licensed per processor / per number of processor. Good product, messed up marketing. It should have been licenses one Admin + agents or something (there are no agents it reads perfmon counters).
 
Spotlight for NT was around 300$, and that's per server. Also quite expensive. Hope someone else grabs up the idea and releases a smiliar tool for a decent price.

Hi,
 
you may have heared/seen the Quest Spotlight software that gives you a neat view of the performance of your servers (basically a GUI for perfmon counters).
Anyway, Quest are giving it away for free, no string attached.
I just registered and now have tto wait until they contact me and "continue the registration process"...whatever that means.
