I'd recommend adding a video tour. Right now I don't know exactly what it does without signing up and toying around with it.

Thanks, I'm seeing a common theme now that screenshots aren't enough.

I prefer to quickly look through some screenshots than sit through a video. Definitely use both if you can but I wouldn't have video without a screenshot alternative.

Do you have an example of someone using both well?

I took a quick look and found a couple I like:

http://basecamphq.com/tour -- Highlights each feature with a screenshot, with a link to a demo video.

http://www.freshbooks.com/tour.php -- Screenshot only tour, but shows screenshot for each section of site, then breaks down the features in each section below.
