Salesforce CPQ Reviews

We use Salesforce CPQ to manage the quote/ contract creation process for both new business and renewal. It is used across the entire sales organization. The "idea" behind implementing it was to help standardize our contracts, but also to provide flexibility in creating quotes.

Salesforce CPQ is currently used @ Xactly Corporation to provide easy access to build quotes directly from within the opportunity object in SFDC. Sales, Sales Operations, and Customer Success are the departments utilizing the tool primarily. We use this tool to avoid manual order form creation processes in Excel.

The use case for CPQ was across a 250+ employee salesforce. CPQ was implemented because my company had gotten to a stage where product and selling configurations had become complex. This became a huge priority in the fall of 2017 to implement. It was, without doubt, the biggest change in our sales process (especially within Salesforce) to date. CPQ was implemented to solve for complex pricing configurations, to increase speed and accuracy, and create workflows to maintain pricing integrity.

Whole organization currently.

Allows our sales group to track account interactions, and links with our internal system to bill and monitor usage

CPQ is being used across our sales, finance, and professional services departments. It solves the issue of having multiple sources of quoting from different departments. It allows for all SOW's and Service Orders to be put onto one document for our customer, rather than having to electronically send some docs, email PDF's of other docs, etc. It also allows for us to quote everything in one place - not just the technology, but also the implementation and any other services involved, without having to reach out to those individual teams.

I was spending way too much time creating quotes for clients using our previous quoting tool. Salesforce CPQ has reduced that time considerably. My productivity has increased and the accuracy of the quotes and contracts generated are consistent and branded properly. Selling bundled products and renewals are now so much easier. The integration with other systems has been smooth as well.

It is providing a missing piece in the Sales process, allowing the sale of complicated multi-product offerings and allowing the capability of cross sell between business functions. It has recently been implemented company wide, but it has been evaluated since before it became Salesforce CPQ.

We implemented SteelBrick in order to more productively and consistently quote our standard machinery and the common configurations that are available for those machines. Using SteelBrick enabled us to streamline the number of inside sales personnel tasked with creating proposals for customers.

CPQ is used by all the sales teams to generate quotes for clients and to facilitate contract creation

We use Salesforce CPQ to enter quotes in Salesforce for new business and upset opportunities. We have an array of products we can select from to price out and we have the ability to edit contract terms, discounts, etc. We quickly and easily generate contracts with Salesforce CPQ. It helps us have consistency amongst the team with our quotes and lends us insight into our pipeline.

Salesforce CPQ is being used as the primary configurator and quote engine for the entire enterprise. We minimally use the pricing functionality. We switched over from Oracle Configurator a little under two years ago. We needed a tool that allowed us to build relatively complex bundle configurations without having to go through our PLM system for Sales BOM structure and have a system that can process a quote and push that data through all downstream documentation to fulfillment.

We were using SteelBrick as our sales and upsells quote creator and processor. This was supposed be robust enough to handle our pricing options for [our] product and in the end, we decided on another solution. SteelBrick just didn't cut it for our needs at the time. I know others have had great experiences with it, but we didn't see the same results.

We use Salesforce CPQ to quote customers on product purchases. We use quotes, quote templates, contracts, subscriptions, products, etc. to handle our ordering process which is quite manual. This is being used by the sales (inside and field reps) teams as well as myself as the Salesforce administrator, in that I have to fix quotes frequently and edit quotes based on our approval process issues.

Currently, CPQ is being utilized by our sales department across all verticals. We primarily use CPQ as our main engine to formulate proposals to our clients. CPQ allows us to address certain business issues such as: Allows for consistent pricing throughout our organization; avoid the need to utilize third party software or Excel pricing sheets; allows for one area to select price book, solutions, dating terms, and/or discounts, and a faster/effective way of creating proposals.

CPQ is being used throughout the North America sales organization. It was implemented about a year or so ago. We love it.

SteelBrick CPQ is being used by Sales, CX and Sales Ops. It is used mainly for Configuration, Pricing and Quoting. But it also serves as the foundation for the products that can be supported by the company for pricing and billing. It also defines the underlying data model for reporting and processes (New Orders, Renewals, Change Orders, Cancellations etc )

We are using SteelBrick CPQ across the entire global sales organization. It allows us to quickly and easily create quotes, bundle products and present them in the fashion the customer would like.

SteelBrick CPQ is being utilized by our sales and marketing departments and addresses our quoting needs for international sales.

We've had Quote Quickly for about four years now, and use it for quoting all of our products. It solves, very well, complex quote builds and versioning, and almost all other quote related activities.

Our Commercial Sales Team is using the solution. Sales associates collect information about a building project, and the information needed to initiate a proposal for HVAC solutions. The solution is a good fit for our needs, which includes: multiple versions of an online price book for different customer segments, the Quote builder and proposal document generator, including multiple versions of a Quote for internal and customer reference, and integration with SalesForce.com workflows for pricing or proposal approval. The application has improved sales productivity, as well as organized data for market and business analytics.

Steelbrick is being used directly by our sales team and our finance and executive teams are receiving information out of it. We have a very complicated setup in terms of products and pricing. All of my company's contracts have just slightly different terms (i.e. product 3 is 25% of the sum of products 2 and 3 for client one but 30% for client two but 20% with a $5000 minimum for client 3). With some creative problem solving assistance from our implementation team, we were able to make it so that our Sales team only sees the products associated with each client and gets all of the product calculations to function appropriately. What this means is that we have reduced the opportunity for error to virtually zero while also drastically reducing the amount of time sales has to wait for answers about pricing and the amount of time it takes to actually build/calculation costs.

We are a global company that was looking for a universal solution for our quoting process. Steelbrick is currently implemented and being used globally in our customer quoting process. The Salesforce quoting application left a lot of gaps in supporting our process, and SteelBrick was able to fill those gaps and give us a more user friendly and intuitive solution.

We have been using SteelBrick internally on our sales operations team for a couple of years, but we are about to roll it out to our entire sales team. Because of this, we've completely overhauled the set up we started with. Since we've been able to add things like product rules and approval processes, we can enable our sales reps to quote with very little assistance.

Steelbrick CPQ is being used by the sales department as the primary quoting and configuration tool.

SteelBrick (QuoteQuickly) is used by my team to build quotes in SFDC. The native program provided did not have all the tools and functionality we needed to we have to look for an app that supported these specializations. It is used by my entire sales team, as well as some in marketing and accounting.
