My only experience here is that it seemed when SoapWare converted to SQL, things changed for the worse. It was shortly thereafter that my system crashed, my data was corrupt and the support team was calling my server a "dinosauer". I was forced to upgrade my operating system, buy a new server and inevitably ditched SoapWare for AC (perhaps the only thing good to come out of it). As I have said on numerous occasions...be careful what you wish for. There is nothing wrong with the mundane if it works well and suits ones needs.
