If you’re a business still relying on it - or thinking about starting - you might want to hit pause. Salesforce is winding down CPQ availability for new customers, shaking up the market and leaving many searching for smarter, faster alternatives.
Don’t get stuck with outdated, costly tech - discover the top Salesforce CPQ alternatives that are built for agility, speed and real-world results.
Your next big sales idea starts here!
Salesforce CPQ (Configure, Price, Quote) is a big name in the enterprise sales tech world. But let's be honest - it's not for everyone.
If you're running a fast paced operation you've probably noticed that Salesforce CPQ can be complex, pricey and slow to implement.
So, if you’re here hunting for something leaner, faster and a little more modern, you’re in the right place.
Before diving into the alternatives, let’s look at what you really need from a CPQ solution in the B2B space right now.
Here are 10 key features a B2B company gains from a CPQ (Configure, Price, Quote) tool:
Guided Selling Workflows
Help sales reps identify the best solution for a customer by guiding them through needs-based questions and suggested configurations.
Service Bundling & Customisation
Enable flexible bundling of products and services (e.g. certification, audits, support, implementation, training) with dynamic customisation options.
Advanced Pricing Logic
Support tiered pricing, volume discounts, and customer-specific rates to handle complex B2B pricing models.
Approval Workflows
Automate internal approvals for custom discounts or non-standard terms to reduce deal cycle time.
CRM Integration
Seamless integration with CRM systems (e.g. Salesforce, HubSpot) to sync customer data, opportunities, and quotes.
Contract & Subscription Management
Handle recurring services, renewals, amendments, and upsell opportunities with full contract lifecycle visibility.
Document Automation
Automatically generate professional, error-free proposals, SOWs, and contracts in multiple formats (PDF, Word).
Analytics & Reporting
Provide insights into quote activity, win/loss ratios, pricing effectiveness, and sales performance.
Mobile & Remote Accessibility
Allow sales teams to create and send quotes from any device, anywhere, for increased responsiveness.
Audit Trail & Compliance Controls
Track all changes and approvals for legal, financial, and regulatory compliance—especially important for services firms.
The Pros
The Cons
Yes, it's widely known that Salesforce CPQ is going away. It's not available for new customers. Changes are also happening for current customers. Salesforce is gradually evolving it's offerings and investing in newer tech stacks.
That doesn’t mean Salesforce CPQ will disappear overnight, but businesses should prepare for shifts in support, pricing models, or product focus.
If you’re already questioning your fit with Salesforce CPQ, now is the perfect time to explore other tools that better align with modern B2B e-commerce workflows.

Revenue Cloud isn’t just a rebrand - it’s a broader solution. It’s designed to provide a more cohesive experience by connecting sales, finance and operations through every step of the revenue lifecycle.

Your quoting process is no longer just operational, it’s mission-critical.
B2B buyers' expectations continue to evolve. They demand the speed of Amazon, the personalisation of Netflix, and the precision of enterprise-grade systems. But here's the catch: most quoting processes haven’t evolved to match. Most are still defined by:
Every friction point is a leak in your revenue funnel. Every delay is a deal lost to a competitor who quoted faster and smarter.
Your sales team feels it. Your prospects feel it. And worst of all, your pipeline feels it.
But it doesn’t have to be this way.
A modern CPQ tool transforms quoting into a competitive advantage.
It streamlines configuration, automates pricing, and generates accurate, on-brand proposals in minutes, not days.
It empowers your reps to sell more, faster, without bottlenecks or errors.
It gives your buyers what they want: clarity, speed and confidence.
In a fast-paced B2B environment, your CPQ system serves as a key driving force behind your sales growth.
