Depending on your number of users, and where you are, it may be cheaper to just hire a person to do it for you. Some of those commercial fees are high.
But I truely feel it isn't needed. As mentioned already, there are about 5 things you can do to make it easier. Between SARE, URIBLs, Bayes, and AWL, you should only have to check up on the system a few times a week. If that!
