Adobe-hosted Connect Pro costs about $1500/year (dollars) once you find a
reasonably priced reseller. I've looked at loads of conferencing systems and
nothing comes close to Connect based on features, slickness, audio/visual,
client requirements (just Flash 8), and firewall friendlyness. It's so
professional looking, especially if multiple users have a webcam. The
backend administration is pretty good too.

The only let down is, no surprise, Adobe's neglect of paying customers. The
administration site is very slow and sometimes you can wait 5 miutes to
submit a form to set up a new meeting, then another 5 each time you edit it.
You'd think they could afford to throw in some more servers! US users have
complained as well as me (in the UK). They have US and UK servers for all
the good it does.
