As far as I know data is free and they offer free trial of software - most info should be on their web site and they have a FAQ section also - if you have any specific questions just email them they are quite responsive.

  John, 

  I checked out the site. Can it pull data from all

  Can I test the product before I buy?

  Thanks,

  Eric
