Ranking the Demand Generation Vendors by Popularity (Yes, Life Really Is Just Like High School)

Customer Experience Matrix

So far the original list of Eloqua , Vtrenz , Marketo , Manticore Technology and Market2Lead has proven a good set of choices.

Marketing Automation Vendor Consolidation: Lessons from History

Customer Experience Matrix

Eloqua and Silverpop are the obvious candidates. Again, there was already one transaction: Silverpop/Vtrenz in 2007. Although the world has certainly changed since the late 1990’s, I see no reason to expect a different pattern among demand generation vendors.

Low Cost Systems for Demand Generation

Customer Experience Matrix

My new obsession with Twitter (follow me as @draab) has led to several messages from people who seemed to have trouble choosing between Eloqua and Marketo. 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 ).
