Any software that will not accept feedback, usually uses stepper motors for control as feedback is not required. The downside is the software makes an assumption where the motor is, based on the number of steps output to the motor amlifier, without knowing for sure where it is. This type of system is probabally your cheapest way to go, even if you have to replace the motors with steppers, it depends on what size the existing motors are.
