Hmm... well, I guess it depends on your exact situation.  Do you need the 
advanced access control that Protegrity offers, or are you just trying to 
protect customer information?  Do you need a "turnkey" solution?  How soon 
do you need it?

One question in particular comes to mind:  Are you using custom made 
software (possibly even coded in-house)?  If so, if might be 
(easier|cheaper|better) to implement encryption directly at the application 
layer, rather than purchasing another app, and adding another layer of 
headaches to deal with.  Unfortunately, if you're using commercial, 
closed-source software this likely isn't an option (unless you can sweet 
talk the vendor :)

I think that the list needs a little more info before we can really 
recommend anything.
