Thanks for posting this - it gives people some tangible evidence of the benefits of using Inbound Marketing and Marketing Automation, or what we call Inbound Marketing Automation. 
Using it for ourselves, and installing it on behalf of our clients, we have experienced very similar numbers using Pardot Prospect Insight. We resell both it an HubSpot and while there are differences in their approaches, features and pricing, we find that, as you said above, a well-designed and properly installed and set up system provides a real ROI within months.
