We also ran into problems with Unify, but not during a trial period. Actually,
there was only one candidate for a DBMS at the time (UNIFY), and the price for
a University was *appealing*, so we got it without a trial period.
In retrospect, though, it will probably serve the simplistic needs of our
users (as long as it doesn't keep on dumping core, etc.).
