My reasoning for going with Netreg is that it is free and I haven't come
across anything else that is (if you know of one, please share). Just
this week I got the plan to move to VLANs approved. But still waiting to
see when we will have the money to buy the equipment needed. Once again,
the almighty dollar is determining our IT department.

Matt,

I'm curious whether you looked at any other software solutions. I'm
researching Netreg and other softwares at Wellesley, trying to figure
out
which is best for us.

cheers,
Cory Forsyth
