Those owning Autosetup are being offered Autocontrol free for 12
months. More than enough time to evaluate it for its potential future
use I think. :-)

Is there anything else like it to compare it with? Not really. So we
look at the cost of US$299/12 months per server. Will there be a
return on that investment? You betcha. Just the freed up time would
pale it in comparison. At least it's not a per user pricing model. It
allows a few domains to pay for the best management of the RAQ as a
whole.

Anyways...we're obviously biased. :-) We ordered it (autosetup) months
ago online..followed it up with a call to the States and had a chat
with Richard...within about 12 hours the software was installed and 
within 10 minutes of that we had about 20 domains up and running.
Autocontrolpro is huge step forward. No doubt Richards' model will be
replicated in many different flavours, but he's led the push in my
opinion.

Cheers (and seasons greetings given it's now the season :-)
