It replaces the spreadsheets, tribal knowledge, and manual processes that most sales teams rely on for complex deals. When your offerings involve configurable options, variable pricing, or any complexity beyond a simple price list, manual quoting creates problems: errors, delays, margin leakage, and frustrated customers waiting for answers. CPQ software solves this by encoding your configuration rules, pricing logic, and business policies into a system that guides reps through the configuration process and automates quote generation. Good CPQ software does a few things well: First, it enforces configuration accuracy. Rules prevent invalid combinations so every quote is technically feasible and complete. No more “we quoted them something we can’t actually build.” Second, it automates pricing and discounting calculations. Discounts, volume tiers, customer agreements, margin floors, multi-currency, all calculated automatically based on the rules your business defines. Third, it automates quote generation so the entire process is one simple workflow. Experlogix CPQ is built for organizations where this complexity is daunting for other tools. This includes manufacturers with thousands of product configurations, professional services firms scoping variable engagements, IT services companies assembling multi-vendor solutions, high tech companies managing complex product portfolios, and countless other use cases and industries. Experlogix CPQ integrates natively with Microsoft Dynamics 365 and Salesforce, so it works inside the CRM your sales team already uses without requiring separate logins, middleware, or data synchronization workarounds.

PROS CPQ became part of a larger revenue generation platform specifically for the airline industry. In 2025, Thoma Brava acquired PROS, giving the CPQ part of the platform to Conga. They plan to maintain both code bases in parallel to serve different audience. For organizations evaluating CPQ options, the practical question is whether you need a platform that was initially built for pricing optimization platform or whether you need a configuration- and quoting-specific platform with industrial-grade CPQ as a main priority for future development.

But the specific capabilities vary widely depending on which CPQ you choose. With Experlogix CPQ for Salesforce, you can: Configure complex offerings with confidence. Logic-based rules ensure every quote is technically valid. If a product combination won’t work, the system prevents it before the rep ever sees the option. This applies whether you’re configuring manufactured products with hundreds of variables or assembling multi-vendor IT solutions with licensing dependencies. Automate pricing that would take hours manually. Experlogix CPQ handles pricing for complex scenarios with ease, making it easier to produce quotes for any combination of products, services and add-ons. Generate professional documents automatically. Quotes, proposals, and statements of work populate from configured data. Enforce approval workflows. Deals outside standard parameters route to the right approvers automatically, with full visibility into where each quote stands. Because Experlogix CPQ works natively inside Salesforce, every quote ties back to the opportunity, account, and contact data already in your CRM. No middleware, no sync delays, no data discrepancies between systems. The key difference with Experlogix CPQ is depth of complexity handling. Basic CPQ tools work for simple product catalogs. Experlogix CPQ is built for the scenarios where those tools break: high-volume, high-complexity environments where configuration rules number in the thousands and pricing logic reflects real business relationships.
