The price point would have been great if it was going to be paid for by the businesses I am managing (in the loosest possible sense). I agree, it's very reasonable. However, the business owners are the type who don't want any ongoing expense. Therefore I would have had to pay it out of my own pocket, and would have been doing it for my own convenience. At the time I originally looked (about this time last year), my money was pretty tight and I couldn't afford to pay for it, it would have been for about forty or fifty endpoints.
I could probably afford it now, but I have other expenses more pressing :-) On 3 August 2011 17:11, Michael B.
