Good standard CPQ product

Likeliness to Recommend

8 /10

What differentiates Salesforce CPQ from other similar products?

The differentiated parameters depending on the type of product presentation, either at an individual or group level is a key differential feature. This flexibility enables sales teams to offer tailored pricing and discounts, optimising the overall quote experience for a user, minimising the administrative burden.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

The detailed product and CPQ reporting that comes from salesforce has got to be the best part of using this solution as part of your salesforce CRM.

What do you dislike most about this product?

There is certainly a steep learning curve, and the complexity of using salesforce is far more significant than other CRM's such as Hubspot. Setting up Salesforce CPQ to meet the specific needs of your business can be time-consuming and require technical expertise as well if you aren't able to or have time to configure yourself, which can create additional cost.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

When deploying any new CPQ tool, it's essential to plan for how and when you will exit the initial heightened state of awareness and empower your sales reps to sell with less organisational "friction". So this is a more general piece of advice than specific only to salesforce.

Pros

Efficient Service
Inspires Innovation
Caring
Saves Time
