We've moved from CCA to Impulse SafeConnect, and are quite happy.  It may not fit your needs (it's not a vlan-switching system like many others), but we've actually received calls from students just to thank us for changing!

Yes, we bought our hardware about 3 years ago, based on the equivalents to the appliance as well. I actually need to make some decisions this year (next 3 or 4 months) on if we are keeping Cisco's NAC, or something else.  I know Symantc and Microsoft have something similar, but haven't had a chance to look at anything yet. Any suggestions from the gallery on alternatives?

We bought HP DL360 G5 chassis  specifying them to be Identical to the Cisco Hardware about 2 years ago. Now they are great paper weights. Cisco Offered a Huge discount if we bought the new appliances in 30 days. We are now planning to re-evaluate the CCA system next year, we may or may not keep it. Even with Maintenance on the  software we would have to buy all new..... I think Cisco did a boo-boo on this one.
