Count us in too - we use both as well, but only started to investigate
Google because we have issue with NedStat's pricing model which does not, in
our view, encourage wide take up within institutions. We're keeping the
faith for now however and keep pressing them for better deals. The new
"bundle" we're all being offered is in response to some concerted lobbying
from us and doubtless others.
