Overall Satisfaction with Apttus Configure Price Quote

Apttus is used by our international sales organization. 3 time zones, 14 languages, 450 users. Dynamic, simple tool that is native to salesforce.com and more or less easy to implement.
  • We have only a few SKU's, we crank out many quotes and have to make adjustments often. The configurator tool is easy to use and simple to train on.
  • Seems to really shine when the quotes get complicated with multi-product, multi-year deals.
  • Apttus Configure Price Quote has a solid team that provides assistance when we need it.
  • Develop a mobile application that synchs with SFDC DBA and runs independently.
  • Advanced approval config is a chore and should be easier.
  • Generated more than 12,000 quotes since we installed 3 years ago. Related to >164MM in deal bookings.
  • Training is not straight-forward as each instance is different. So, having a tools ops person to understand the deep offering is important.
  • Steelbrick and ZQuotes
More robust than the competition from what I hear. I was not here when Steelbrick was installed.
Transactional environments would benefit from the deep CPQ offerings Apttus provides. Smaller shops that have a much longer sales cycle may see Apttus as cost prohibitive. Implementation was a chore. We had to hire a full-time person to manage the package. That was an unexpected cost that we were not prepared for.
