It was very inexpensive. It's in the cloud. You get the first 100 user licenses, and you can set that up. This was about 18 months to 2 years ago, for around $22,000 to $23,000. So, there are no upfront costs. It's a monthly payment, so you can easily start or stop using it, unlike the high upfront costs of consultants coming in and analyzing your whole business. So you can switch it on, you can switch it off, rather than the great big upfront costs of consultants coming in, analyzing the whole business. Then, with Salesforce, it's not out of the box. It has to all be configured.

Whereas Impartner can fit alongside the CRM system and can work quite successfully.
