A fine question. The two answers below address this nicely. I'm one of the founders of Vero. If you have any questions please get in touch, I'd be happy to answer.
I'd say that if you want to do the event-based automation then a tool like Vero is a good fit over the others as the ways you can push data into Vero (our Javascript API, etc.) are designed pretty much exclusively for this purpose :).
