Salesforce Revenue Cloud vs. Vendavo

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.

Vendavo is well suited for large organizations with complex pricing scenarios. Vendavo is very flexible to implement to different businesses. Global processes can be done in Vendavo with a single instance on most occasions with diverse business processes without compromising much of the current business processes.

• 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.

Incentivized

• The charts and graphs that you can pull from Vendavo are easy to read, and easy to work with.
• Reporting - You can save individual reports and run them consistently. They are also easy to tweak for a more specific application.
• Export capabilities were great, it was easy to grab data from Vendavo.

• 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.

Incentivized

• Improve import function in the Profit Analyzer for bulk parts. Handles large part imports slowly.

The company is very easy to work with and is growing by leaps and bounds. We do not anticipate switching vendors anytime in the near future

I would give it an eight because it's very customizable in the way that you want to create it. I think I'm just docking points because sometimes there can be a little too much customization, which can make it a little complicated, but it just depends on the complexity of your business and how you guys build it out in the first place.

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.

Support was not very responsive, and required added costs.

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.

I preferred Vendavo, but my price manager migrated to Tableau. I think because of the licencing costs of vendavo?

Incentivized

• 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.

Incentivized

• Helped drive better business decisions.
• Increase in overall margin.
• Better understanding of specific markets.
