Infusionsoft argues that their partner network is a competitive barrier that would be hard for another software vendor to overcome. As usual at these conferences, I spent a good chunk of my time cruising the exhibition floor for interesting new vendors. Two other vendors also caught my eye. I’m pretty sure they’re right.

My little tour of demand generation vendors landed at Pardot just before Thanksgiving. As you’ll recall from my post on Web activity statistics , Pardot is one of the higher-ranked vendors not already in the Raab Guide to Demand Generation Systems.
