you know that I see a lot of demand generation systems. But the vast majority of demand generation systems are installed in much smaller marketing departments, where setting up campaigns is just a fraction of the user's job.

Decision Software has remained a small company while Aprimo is most successful in B2B marketing resource management. Although the world has certainly changed since the late 1990’s, I see no reason to expect a different pattern among demand generation vendors. A few might survive as independents serving the most sophisticated clients.

Oracle tersely announced today that it had purchased the intellectual assets of demand generation vendor Market2Lead.
