Matrix Comparison between Spiratest and Testlink Test Management Tools

I've our QA division is looking into implementing either Spiratest or Testlink, depending on whichever is the better of the two. I do know that the former is paid for and the later is an opensource tool. I'd like a matrix or spreadsheet with comparisons between the two, that would help with deciding on one of the tools. I must mention that our QA department subscribes to and practices the Agile Meathodology.

Any form of assistance would be appreciated.

Thanks/
