The Nextian CPQ & Sales Management app extends the standard Salesforce Sales Cloud CRM quoting and opportunity management with the support to sell cloud & communications services such as Internet access, dedicated servers, SaaS products and more. Nextian CPQ key features include:
- Quoting of subscription services (e.g., 100 Mbps internet for 12 months) as well as one-time widget products.
- Support for new, cancel, change, re-rate, re-term and service request quote line items (a.k.a. MACDs), allowing various line item types within a single quote.
- Direct pricing or integration with third-party pricing engines for wholesale or reseller scenarios.
- Ability to create multiple quotes under a single opportunity (e.g., a 12- or 24-month service offering), with syncing for accurate sales funnel forecasting.
- Advanced analytics & forecasting, including revenue, profit, and margin (new, lost, uptick/downtick, net) on quotes and opportunities.
- User-defined approval process based on criteria such as monthly recurring and non-recurring charges, contract values, product types, and profit margins.
- Create quote paperwork in PDF format, based on user-defined templates.
- Seamless integration with digital signature systems such as DocuSign.
- Automated creation of services and work orders for closed-won quotes (processed later in Nextian Order Management).
