Dear Frank
Your first question about the cost comparison also came up at the User Meeting where I presented this slide. The answer to that is yes and no!. The context of this cost comparison is that it was taken from a technical requirements study I did for the specific project. As such, the comparison of costs here was done on the basis of a common set of technical requirements, which each of these solutions fulfilled (the main requirements were basic GIS functionality, and a IMS server). Of course, if you have differing requirements, than some of these solutions might not be appropriate and thus pricings might change. Manifold has the great advantage that almost all its versions come with their complete IMS server bundled, without any catches or limitations. This is the greatest cost saving feature, along with a support function on a per use basis, versus maintenance contracts, and considerably cheaper license prices.
There sadly is no demo version, but Manifold do offer a 30 day money back guarantee, so you could order it and return after 30 days if not happy. Also have a look at the other links in the Manipedia, there are a load of videos that give you an overview of the software and have a read through the online user manual.
A lot of people often make the mistake to equate price with number of features/"how capable" a GIS is. You will see if you look at the online manual of Manifold that the list of features it supports is impressive and up to par with most other solutions. Also, have a look through the User Forum at forum.manifold.net for answers to your questions.
I am not working for Manifold or have any affiliation with the company, I am just a happy user that wants to raise awarness of the software as alternatives to the more established ArcGIS, MapInfo, AutoCad and others.
What functionality do you specifically need, maybe I can give you a more informed opinion then on the suitability.
