I think so. (Perhaps they need a less comprehensive demo).

Well ...

groups - just folders and sub-folders - exactly like OF.
databases - you only need one. That's what I do to integrate with OF.
multiple inboxes - Like OF, there's just one global inbox, and an icon for it appears (rather usefully, I find) in the Finder and in the Save As dialogs of all other OS X applications.

(The global inbox can feed into database-specific in-trays if you choose to have several databases, but there's no need to)

As for the alternative screen layouts and smart collections - these are very much like the Finder. As an OF expert, I think you might feel less daunted if you gave it a second glance :-)

I find the Omnifocus <--> Devonthink interaction works very well, not least because both are highly scriptable.
