Has anyone used one of these?

We have several SLC's (mostly 5/04's) in the plant that we would like to upgrade to be able to communicate to an intouch server for basic data gathering purposes. We are not planning any I/O control or anything like that, just want to pull data from the SLC.
The company is intent on using ethernet so DH+ and KTX cards are not an option.
I am also considering a control logix bridge (DH+ to ethernet) but from an installation standpoint it would be much easier to simply install these pro soft cards. None of the PLC's are currently tied together on the DH.
Any recommendation or advice would be appreciated.
