As you might imagine, I’ve been trying to decide how to expand the set of products covered in the Raab Guide to Demand Generation Systems. The tentative list is Unica , Aprimo , Alterian , and Neolane. But I’ve also been approached by some of the other demand generation specialists. How to choose?

I do recognize that they are the best known vendors in the space (with apologies to Vtrenz , whose identity is somewhat blurred since its purchase by Silverpop ). But even including that, the first year cost for most of these will be less.) : Manticore Technology : a full-featured demand generation product. Read it here.]

4) “Pure play” lead management – this group is lead by Eloqua , but there are a LOT of firms throwing their hat into this ring including Vtrenz, Hubspot, Manticore, Market2Lead, Marketo, LoopFuse, einsof, iHance, Precience, among many others. That I’m sure to hear about them since I know I’ve missed adding many to this list.)
