Just the free one. It had trouble with some stuff (most of the problem 
areas are known and supposedly addressed in the non-free versions), but 
we found it to be fast enough to fit our needs and accurate enough to be 
useful.

What originally caught my eye when we were searching around:

1. MySQL AB was using it.
2. Jim Winstead wrote the PHP library for it.
3. It was free.
