HI Bill: We are replacing a CRM and Distribution system running on Microsoft SQL Server that cost 10 times what Unidata does. The irony of this replacement is they are still running Unidata and could never get this software to running the way their current system does after 3 years. We are migrating them to the Web using our U2WebLink middleware in just 2 months.

Doug: Let me point out an alternative perspective. An ISV's job is to sell our applications. If we can't compete in our business marketplaces, we need to make adjustments or look at alternatives. Competition mostly means we need to offer a product that benefits our customers at a price that is usually less than our competitors. From my perspective, your statement that you pay "much higher rates for Oracle and Microsoft" databases doesn't apply to my experiences. In fact, a number of our competitors use Microsoft technology and have much lower deployment costs in the small business environment than we do. I'm only saying my experiences differ from yours on this point, which is critical to our business.
