You are correct the Unicom's Products are functionally equivalent to the Compuware's products. The easy of use of the Unicom products is not as good as the Compuware's products. The Unicom support is nowhere as good as is Compuware's support. However, management loves the price.

I have personally been involved in numerous replacement projects, and all have been completed on time with practically no loss of productivity or functionality. Having worked with all three company's products, I can tell you that the CA products do not compare with either Macro 4 or Compuware. Regards, Morrie Meyer Senior Product Engineer Macro 4, Inc.
