SOT says their product is based on OpenOffice.org. Have you tried OOo?
If so {
    How does SOT Office differ from OOo?
    How does SOT Office differ from StarOffice?
    also, if the differences are not substantial {
        Why not use OOo and support open-source?
        Why not use StarOffice, since it has Adabas database?
    }
}

Not criticizing, but curious.
