The one I've heard about is http://www.hydrocompinc.com/techrpts/RPT131.htm or just http://www.hydrocompinc.com/ but I don't think it will fit your definition of cheap.

I believe PropCad is fairly expensive, and I've been told prices depend on what business you are in, what size your company is, etc.

Fill out their form at http://www.hydrocompinc.com/ordering.htm or email one of their dealers http://www.hydrocompinc.com/ordering/dealer.htm and they can give you a better idea. Even if it turns out not to be right for you, if you start a friendly dialogue with them they might be able to point you in a new direction.
