I can say I would be very interested in this option, while we were using Zendto a lot I still have to have aYouSendIt account for some people. This would help with some of the holdouts.

As far as costs go, it would have to be fairly inexpensive for me to sell it to my CFO since that's why I went with an open source solution over YouSendIt @ $9/mo. We're you thinking of an annual, monthly or one time license fee? If it is a one time fee are you including maintenance or is that additional?

We are a 30 person company and when we used YouSendIt I was only able to afford 2 licenses that people shared so that gives you some idea of the budget I have to work with for this type of thing. :-(. If it is a one time expense then I could probably get them to spend up to $10 per license (or $300 total)

Hope that helps, I would be interested to know how far apart we are on pricing.
