For me, Crestron has been a way for me to compete with jobs in the 5-7K range where the client thinks he is getting a lot for his money with Control 4. It has a little bit of everything and can appeal to a vast audience. Great for "green" installs as well. It can be expanded to compete with a large system and is really ultra reliable and full of great features. But again, mostly its given me a way to compete with two way systems like C4.
