Also, do the 3 month Trial. After checking it out, ask yourself would you be satified with it AS IS for the current price. It may not do everything you want, but it costs 50% less than others. I say AS IS since you cannot gaurantee what will be added. Be careful to look at other systems faults also, because you can't be sure what will be fixed or added to them, and they will cost alot more, but they may have more "right now". Its a trade off, basic cost/benefit analysis.

For myself, honestly, given the resources I had/have available, there is a 90% chance I would get AC if I was buying one right now, and I definitely would if I was doing it over in 2005/6 when I got AC.

There are a heck of a lot of hidden costs in these systems though, not just the obvious ones when you initially purchase. For example, lab interfaces. AC is a one-time charge of $250 typically. Even a lab that doesn't do much business with you can do that. With other companies, I've heard the fee is a couple of thousand dollars. And possibly its a recurring annual cost.

Or the interface fee for some other 3rd party program who does not typically pay it for you. Check those things out when performing your cost/benefit analysis.
