    I suggest becoming fully familiar with the program before first time use as it can become costly and a charge off to a client would not be practical.

    What I like best is the ease of use to be able to track all opportunities and quotes in my daily sales tracker I also like the fact that you can reorganize the view for your opportunities. For instance, it is very similar to a spreadsheet where you can filter them by date, dollar amount, name, and several other ways. I found this to be less appropriate when we have to do multiple roles while assigning one task to multiple users. Column resizing within the Quote Line Editor is not supported in the Salesforce mobile app.

    • It does a lot of pricing models really well. So like tiered pricing when you're selling a product has tiered pricing.
    • The out of the box approval functionalities is really good. It can trigger approvals based on a ton of different custom criteria.
    • The data it creates and tracks is really accurate and robust.

    • Our Salesforce is very messy, which tells me it's not super easy to clean up.
    • I always have a really hard time removing a contacts from an account - it seems like you can't simply remove the relationship so we have lots of people named DO NOT CONTACT or things of that nature.
    • Sometimes when saving it doesn't seem like things actually save.

    Because it looked almost impossible to integrate it with Zoho CRM while our Sales Operations team was working on it. But thankfully it worked at last but at the expense of a month's time. However, it has made every possible Revenue operations task simpler now. And that has ultimately made our team more efficient in terms of work hours spent on manual work.

    There have been some issues with multi-year pricing of certain products and services which we have been assured will be resolved but I guess are still underway, the support team apart from this has not been needed much and in the rare scenarios, it has been needed the resolutions of conflicts has been prompt and quick, so the overall support would have my high regards for being so helpful and customer-oriented so as to assure good performance of their toolset and customer satisfaction.

    We contacted PlanGuru for a low-cost module initially for use on a particular client. It has been used several times since by my department for projections. It's fairly adaptable with our QuickBooks business clients.

    There is no comparison to a fully functional instance of CPQ. Nothing comes close due to the amount of customization and ease of use that CPQ offers once it's fully built out. Other solutions may be easier to build or administer, but for the users and business needs, CPQ is the best solution possible.

    • There hasn't really been much use of this product for some time.

    • Easy access to reporting on closed-won, closed-lost, and open quotes.
    • Accuracy in data referenced in a quote - it's typically accurate as it is pulled directly from opportunity, looking up to associated subscription start/end dates, etc..
    • We lose valuable time in creating quotes ourselves. Quotes were requested and created through sales ops previously, sales did not have access to the excel templates used to generate quotes.
