I am currently running a Yaskawa VFD on a 35hp turbine pump. I paid $3,500 about 3 years ago and it was the cheapest I could find that had all of the features I needed.

The center pivot this pump is connected to is a research machine in which we are continually turning sections on and off. With the pressure transducer control I just set the operating pressure desired and the VFD will change the pump speed to maintain that regardless of flow rate. I have had very good luck with the tech support at Yaskawa and have purchased a smaller 10hp version for my trickle pump.
