I’ve been playing with Yesware for a bit, where I’m a member of a Yesware team provisioned by a client. I like the Yesware interface, and its easy integration with Salesforce. And of course, the control freak in one gets addicted to the intel on when your missives are read (and re-read because they’re just that good). But just as I was getting ready to subscribe, I diligently took one more look through the app exchange, where I found that Cirrus Insight basically matches Yesware feature for feature (with the added bonus of having experience and opinions on both offerings).

So, intrigued, I downloaded yet another package and set it up. (Kudos, kids: your video instructions are really in a pedagogical sweet-spot)
