Nice product, but the pricetag is to high

Product Platform: MacOSX

Used Product For: Have Not Tried

Recommend Product: NO

I used this product for a long time in my last job, and it's nice for sure, but the pricetag is way too high. And if you want some sort of decent support, the TCO-price is absurd. So if you're not rich or have special (MS/Win/ActiveD.-based?) needs, I'll go for a Mac OS X server instead.
The license price itself (for 100 users) can buy you a xserve with nice specs...
You also have to pay for #.X updates, and the upgrade-prices are not nice they either.
Conclusion: Good product, but way too expensive.
