I wonder if this is true though.
Maybe it puts off people who otherwise might be able to have a product tailored to their budget???

Its possible. I know a guy who isn't put off buy "call us" pricing notices and he seems to get good deals, so its certainly possible. Many of us will never find out though, because "call us" means "close tab". Even if I really want their product and am willing to pay a lot for it, my time is too precious to me to waste on calls.
I can definitely relate with GP, though. It feels frustrating to learn about an interesting product only to find that it's priced way outside of your budget.
At least Gremlin has a public sticker price. Sometimes enterprise services just skip that completely and require you to setup a call with someone in their sales department, which usually means the service is outside of your budget.
