Omni offers the software as well.  One difference is the price.  ELK
software is bundled with the system if you buy it online.  HAI charges a
pretty penny for the software.  Also, if you buy HAI Omni be sure that you
order the dealer software.  Their user software is not sufficient to program
the whole system.  It also costs, though not as much as the installer
software.
