I would love to trial this software again when my need requires it. --- ### Price vs Features - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Eric R. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Information Technology and Services - Company size: 501-1000 employees - Product usage: Used other for more than 2 years - Reviewed: May 2020 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 1/5 - Customer support: 4/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros The software does what it needs to do very well.
