The increasing need for higher productivity in organizations is the key factor driving the market. Sales management personnel heavily reliant on conventional methods often find themselves bogged down by paperwork and documentation procedures. However, the advent of CPQ software presents an opportunity for exponential improvement in productivity and operational efficiency. With CPQ software, the time spent on pricing and configuration processes can be significantly reduced, particularly with the adoption of cloud-based solutions.
Moreover, configure price and quote software market players like Salesforce offer companies the ability to swiftly scale up their pricing and selling strategies compared to on-premises applications. This capability can aid companies in minimizing pricing, quoting, and order errors on a large scale. Additionally, CPQ software can facilitate legacy system integration, address management challenges, and eliminate pricing data inconsistencies. Consequently, these factors are poised to drive market growth during the forecast period, benefiting industries such as manufacturing, telecommunications, and software as a service (SaaS), among others.
The increase in mobility solutions is the primary trend in the market. Align with market trends and analysis, increasing smartphone penetration and the popularity of mobile apps have increased market sales. Due to the ease of access and mobility among end-users, accessing CPQ software features through smart devices is increasing rapidly. Cloud-based CPQ software offers platforms that permit users to access the software from any mobile device.
Moreover, this allows organizations to easily access and exchange data with employees from remote locations. Mobile CPQ applications can generate quotes on smartphones from anywhere, anytime, and provide customer updates immediately which shortens the sales cycle. The existence of several mobile apps for CPQ such as PandaDoc and Infusionsoft further expands the scope of the Configure Price and Quote software market. Hence such factors are expected to boost market growth during the forecast period.
The lack of coordination among business units is challenging market expansion. Implementing CPQ to receive optimum benefits requires the coordination and participation of multiple business units within an enterprise. For this to occur, sales teams in companies must take the initiative and collaborate with other departments/business units, such as IT, product management, and finance.
Additionally, due to a lack of coordination between business units, there is a relatively lower adoption of CPQ, reducing the scope of the configure price and quote software market. For example, decisions regarding key factors like product pricing and discounts must be consulted with the finance team of the organization. Hence the possibility of failure of CPQ software implementation into the sales system results in reduced sales of CPQ software. Such factors will be a hindrance to market expansion during the forecast period.
