I had tested it and here is what I thought;
The Web interface was a bit lame ( not very pretty or clean, we like
to impress people, management likes "graphs" ). The actual engine was good
box ran fast. They have an agent runs on all you hosts, this basically makes
a software firewall on all your severs. This is what I did not like, I have
no way of know how that agent will effect some of my servers. It has the
optional of burning up a lot of cpu. I ran Blackice Dragoon, ISS, and even
the cisco IDS Blade for the 6509. I finally settled on Snort, it was free
and works just as well, plus it is easier to make custom rules. That's my
two cents.

Does anyone have any experience with Blackice Sentry or the IceCap
Manager? I would very much appreciate some opinions from someone who
has used these products (good or bad). Also, any licensing /pricing
info would also be appreciate.
Thanks~!
