John,

My company, IDT, evaluated VERA, Specman and Quickbench about one year ago.
Although VERA and Specman are very powerful system verification solutions, 
Quickbench is a more cost-effective solution.  QB may not do everything
that VERA and Specman can do, it does do most of what the design groups
wants and is, therefore, easier to learn.

If you're looking for a system verification solution, you should consider
all three: Quickbench, VERA and Specman.
