"Used to identify price of motors/pumps in our product line"

3/5

What do you like best about Vendavo?

The radio buttons in the selection process make it fairly easy to select the application Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Vendavo?

For some reason, when the sections are made and the result is displayed at the bottom, you are not supposed to select the radio button for the item and should (according to the note) select the NEXT arrow at the top of the page. If you do accidentally select the radio button, the NEXT arrow does not work properly and will not fix itself even if the radio button is unselected. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Excellent Customization and Responsive Customer Service"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Vendavo?

We have a very special, custom product that can result in extremely complex configurations and therefore extremely complex logic in order to ensure accurate proposals. Not only does Endeavor provide a fast stable environment, but their ability to customize and streamline the quoting process to afford our salespeople more time to meet with customers face-to-face and sell!

Support is quick to respond and resolve as well as providing constructive suggestions to further improve our UX. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Vendavo?

There is not much to dislike, the only thing that we've heard requested from our user group apply to some aesthetics changes.

There is some unique functionality that was lost when we upgraded to their newest version of our tool, but with all the other improvements, and knowing it is something that will be addressed with incremental upgrades as we move forward, it is something we can work around. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Vendavo:

Endeavor will set realistic expectations regarding a timeline for completion. They will do everything in their power to provide the most stable, easy to use system within the allotted time frame. They provide status reports on a regular basis making sure you are always aware of what is completed, what is outstanding and how well you've managed the time and resources associated with implementing your custom solution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Vendavo solving and how is that benefiting you?

We needed a tool that allowed our salesmen to provide quotations to their customers as quickly as possible as well as capturing all the information regarding their quotation within our CRM, Salesforce. When we began the adoption process of our new CRM 5 years ago we were told that they could not support our need for such a customized tool using native salesforce capbilities. Endeavor CPQ was able to provide us with a solution quickly and provided a great deal of direct support to our user group during the initial rollout.

We've seen an decrease in the amount of time it takes to generate a quotation which means our salesmen have more time to focus on making a sale. The proposal generation is also top notch and provides an excellent experience to our potential customers and provides a clear, easily understood proposal, that increases our chances of making a sale.

"Endeavor CPQ9 Platform Ugrade - Faster, Smarter, Simpler"

4/5

What do you like best about Vendavo?

The new CPQ9 platform from Endeavor Commerce offers a robust quoting platform capable of managing complex product variability and logic layering with user-friendliness and quick processing speed. The solution integrates seamlessly with our Salesforce.com CRM platform to offer consistent and professional customer proposals, as well as accurate product data on Sales Opportunities for forecasting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Vendavo?

We are a long-time partner of Endeavor, so we had to migrate from a previously employed solution to the new platform, which required some dedicated effort and time, but the Endeavor team worked cooperatively and constructively with us all along the way to help ensure a smooth upgrade release. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Vendavo:

If you're in the market for a robust, yet easy-to-use CPQ tool that integrates well with various CRM platforms, this is a solid solution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Vendavo solving and how is that benefiting you?

Although we offer a standard range of door product lines, there is high variability around available options for any given door configuration and its unique application and size, resulting in a "custom" sale every time a door is quoted. The Endeavor CPQ9 platform allows our Sales team to easily Configure, Price and Quote custom door solutions quickly with ease, and offers a consistent and professional proposal output that echoes the pillars of the Rytec Brand: Performance, Reliability and Durability.

"Clean, Powerful and easy to adapt to your environment"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Vendavo?

CPQ gives me the ability to customize our guided selling to fit the less technical nature of our sales team. I can customize it in so many different ways I sometimes lose track of all the things it can do. It allows me to control what our Sales Team can see, which in turn allows me to control what products are selected from the catalog. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Vendavo?

I am not a big fan of being forced to use Silverlight in the admin console, and I wish that I had the ability to copy questions during the guided selling setup. I would also like to see it work with the newest browser offerings from Microsoft. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Vendavo:

As always do your homework, but take the time to learn the nuances of the product. It is the little things that make this a fantastic platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Vendavo solving and how is that benefiting you?

We focus a great deal here on order entry errors. We need our Sales Support Team focusing on entering orders quickly and accurately. With CPQ and the guided selling trees, I am able to create a series of simple questions that our Sales Support Team answers and based on those answers, it will show or hide other options as they go through it. This was important to our company because it removes products that are not needed from view. By doing this, orders are easily repeatable and our order accuracy has increased greatly.
