Do you intend to make it a standard part of a common load set?

While it makes a fine discovery tool, I wonder how often one needs to
run it - once per day/week/quarter/year and/or just on compromised
systems?

When I spoke with the company regarding licensing, I was particularly
interested in a floating/auditor license.  Unfortunately, this was not
an option.

We have recently purchased a site license of their product and are in
the midst of rolling it campus
wide. Their support has been very responsive to our needs and our
experience has been positive.



Feel free to send me any specific questions you might have.

Does anyone have experience with the scanning tool "Identify Finder"?
We're looking for a tool to
assist us in discovering sensitive data such as SSN's, credit card
numbers, etc.
