Answer:
I have evaluated the R/3 based one, in theory it's good but in my opinion unnecessary. The netweaver based suite is supposed to be very good - this feedback is from friends who are close to the product.
Edited to add that although the principles of AE are sound, it is another tool that gives opportunity to recruit individuals with poor security knowledge into roles, as in the eyes of management the tool will do it all, disregarding the quality of information that any such tool is configured with. There is a lot to be said for the automation or expediting some tasks, but I do fear that we will see a growth in button pushers in the security role.
