Insightful Miner vs. SAS Enterprise Miner

["Overstreet, Jason" <joverstreet@hotwater.com>]

I need to make an objective decision on whether to use Insightful Miner or SAS Enterprise Miner.  If anyone has any references, opinion, or otherwise helpful inputs into something that will describe the basic differences between the two – this would be greatly appreciated.  I just got off the phone with a friend of mine who is a professor and he said that most of the functions and procedures can be duplicated within the base languages.  I don’t think this is a realistic option since I have to produce results and don’t have a lot of time reinventing the wheel.  Please throw your opinions out there on the subject.  Thanks very much in advance…
