    I could not begin to think of a situation where marketing
    automation is not appropriate, particularly for small and medium-sized
    businesses that often times are challenged with fewer resources. Lead
    generation, customer acquisition, conversion, and reselling all require the
    consistency and fluidity that marketing automation can provide. For Capitol
    Corridor, we are limited by the capacity of our trains, so we cannot oversell. By
    doing so, we would lose business. And we’ve leveraged marketing automation to
    help us manage our train capacity as well as create transparency in our service
    available to help close deals successfully.

    Vbout offers a very robust overall solution, with a more basic solution, and a much lower price point than the Constant Contact Lead Gen & CRM solution.

    Zoho has a good price point. I would encourage that the add-on pricing be less aggressive.
