We are in the process of looking at Internet Archivist also. It has
been highly recommended. In addition to this, we're also looking at Gencat
provided by Eloquent Systems out of Vancouver.
In Gencat, the tags seem clearer and the search capabilities are
better. However, it is quite expensive. Has anyone had any experience with
Gencat?
