Configuring Cisco hardware properly: netformx.com, anyone?!?

I am not sure if I am the only one, but I have a hell of a time keeping up with the latest and greatest in everything from Cisco, as far as modules and cards being available for all new models. I was thinking of buying an yearly subscription to netformx.com tool for Visio. Does anybody have any opinion (preferable based on personal experience) about its usefulness?!? Is anybody aware of equivalent tools (besides Cisco's online tool, which is of no use for my Visio diagrams, or proper bill of materials creation, let alone being cumbersome ...)?

TIA, Papi

papi-

without trying to hype the product too much I would compare netformx

with netzoom.. netformx is a great tool if put to maximum use, but if

you are just looking to use the stencil library then go with

netzoom... it is much cheaper and offers a library of manufacturer

specific stencils that dwarfs cisco.. netformx does have direct input

from cisco which is useful, and netzoom creates the shapes when

requested by their customers..
