I am heading up a project to look for an cost effective IPAM solution to potentially replace my expensive QIP implementation...and I must say the Bluecat Proteus does look very promising. I've talked to their guys and did a demo with them...they know what they're talking about. And they have this "tag" system which is really cool.
The down side is that Proteus can only controls their Adonis devices (for now) which means I would have to replace all my windows/bind servers...but even with that, the cost would be less then 1/2 of what we're paying now for QIP renewal/maintenance...which is nuts.

Well, I haven't left QIP yet...cause as much as I hate paying high maintenace cost, its still much better than spreadsheet. (yuk)
I suggest you look at all the players. Bluecat, Infoblox, INS seem to be getting the most buzz. Check them all out and judge for yourself.
