While your product looks fine... why pay? The VBCommenter power toy add-in does it for free. Coupled with (the also free and fantastic) NDoc, I can't see your product being a compelling alternative in the slightest.
There's always reason for commercial products. If you are doing basic things, free tools may be OK. Our VBdocman offers several additional features:
1. All in one.
2. More output formats.
3. Redistributable command line tool that easily registers and integrates your component documentation on user's machine during installation.
4. WYSIWYG comment editor. You can visually place bold, italic, underline, links, tables, pictures, lists and other things directly to your XML comments. It allows you to insert complex code examples and automatically escapes all dangerous XML characters.
5. While not perfect, it works as it should (unlike free tools). For example see
or
6. Support for generics and partial classes (in the upcoming version which will be released in a few days).
7. Conditional inclusion of members in resulting documentation, ability to include source code, ability to document namespaces.
8. Recognizes @-style javadoc comments which is very important for teams that ported their VB6 code to .NET.
9. Ability to use short numerical file names to avoid OS limit on path length and more.
10. Support.
