You could check FIB plus. It also costs money (I believe about 200 US$), but
is based on FIB, just like IBX. The switch from IBX to FIB plus will
probably not be so hard to do. I think most will work, only in FIB plus some
common problems are solved (i.e. use of 2 transactions in the dataset, so
your data remains visible after an update). The makers are supporting both
Interbase and Firebird. You could download a demo at www.devrace.com
