Well, so far I'm liking Helios. Some people do, some don't it seems.

The conversion from mstan to Helios was a challenge. From what they tell me, Helios has an mstan conversion tool. I elected not to use it since I had a little database "housekeeping" that went along with the conversion. I took the hard road, but it worked out ok.

Although it's a decent software, given it's ancient platform and no technical support, I'd move on to something a little more modern if it were me.
