We have priced the following network managed modems:

Hayes Millenium:  $$$OUTRAGOUS$$$  avg $1042 per modem
USR Total Control:  $$$ALMOST AS BAD$$$  avg $960 per modem
Microcom:  $$$$STILL BIG BUCKS BUT BETTER$$$ avg $737 per modem
MultiTech: $$$$BEST BUY SO FAR$$$$   avg $416 per modem

Anyone know if MultiTech modems are any good?  How many headaches will I 
have with users who won't be able to connect to MultiTech modems?
