    I think CPQ had worked so well for our company because of the widespread nature of our associates and tracking orders that were being placed in multiple time zones. My team specifically needed a way of analyzing these orders to track our progress in real time and sort out any supply orders before they became an issue. If you are in a centralized location with a smaller team then this may not yield much use to you.

    • It has standard objects such as a price book which handles the price of the product and partners will be able to view the price of the product and see the quantity available for them and orders can be placed as per the price book.
    • Partner's data will be stored in the CPQ and as per the partner discount and volume discounts will be automatically provided at the final billing which is done through automation

    Cons
    Experlogix
    • Designer tool, it could still be friendlier.
    • UI look designing is not that easy.

    • Significant setup time, cost, and maintenance. We have to use an implementation partner
    • Does not always play well with other software, even Oracle software. While this is improved and being further improved, that it was a third party acquisition means things sometimes require a little extra care
    • Additional setup documentation and first walkthroughs would be helpful, especially if it was all in one place

    So far it is all good with BigMachines, looking for new features since Oracle acquisition has created a lot of expectations. We have outlined our limitations (out of box functionality) in our periodic customer successor advice meetings for a while, hope we get a resolution soon. Also, the BigMachines user license fee has increased a lot in the last three years.

    The software UI can be as complex or as simple as you need it to be (depending on the business). It does require training others on quote configuration and the order in which to build out order positions prior to configuring a quote. Once users are trained;however, it is fairly straight-forward. The UI is still more static than other new wizard/drag-and-drop models, but it get's the job done

    It depends upon the day however there are so many failure points with online services, including our internet service, that this is probably closer to 9 with the latest version

    Some specific support personal was good and fixed some problems fast using proper solutions. But when one of them went to sleep when we had critical issues and they do unreported commits to our production environment which caused issues and they were hiding it?? you can not give more than a two (maybe even that is too much). They also failed to add a feature for us which also bring the grade down.

    They have pretty good training. Our business analysts have been able to go to entry and advanced level training. They have a train the trainer model. Our business analyst attended training, then trained the rest of our staff.

    It was a much more technical implementation than we thought. It involved much more code.

    Future releases have made and will make administering the tool easier.

    EDL consulting had one good developer, but when he was moved off, they were horrible to work with.

    The BMI sales team does a “BOA” or a “Business Operation Assessment” which is extremely valuable, not only for them to scope an implementation and get more reach within the organization, but it is also a documentation of business process that most organizations don’t have. It highlights inefficiencies and allows for correction during implementation.

    Having a dedicated team (in-house) for implementation is key

    The standard objects provided by Salesforce are much more apt than SAP. Out-of-the-box functionality provided by Salesforce is much better than any other CRM. If we want to implement some custom workaround we can use Apex scripting which is much similar to java and is very easy for the developers to grab and implement the Login. There is more drag and drop functionality provided by Salesforce CPQ than any other CRM. Overall implementation is easy than SAP.

    Oracle engagement is ahead. They are active in the development of the tool and provide great support after implementation. They also listen to their customers and offer opportunities to feedback and provide input through activities like the customer advisory board forum.

    • Increased Sales Rep efficiency. Being able to create multiple quotes ACCURATELY and quickly was a game changer.
    • Large implementation time. It's a little difficult to fit BMI into a SCRUM style build, with multiple working models and prototypes of all 3 simultaneously.
    • A larger fee for licensing and implementation cost. ROI wouldn't be realized in the first year.
