Continuous Deployment with TeamCity

I recently set up a CI server in TeamCity and now want to take it to the next step, continuous deployment. Basically, we host a suite of restful services and about 3 web applications for each one of our customers. All customers get 3 environments QA, UAT and Prod. We want to be able to automatically deploy our builds once our tests pass. I'm not looking for custom scripting options to do this. I've seen plenty of those of SO. What we're looking for is a solutions like UDeploy but at a lower price point. Is anyone aware of alternatives to UDeploy? Or other Continuous Deployment plugins that work with TeamCity?

Thanks,

I agree with @Niklas Ringdahl -- I think you're thinking about it wrong.

You can deploy directly from TeamCity using MS WebDeploy.

See Troy Hunt's excellent blog series about this:
