Likelihood to Recommend
Were it not for the fact that IBM CPQ lacks mobile and tablet applications, I would have recommended it 100%. However, I still have that 99% recommendation rate since this solution has saved us a lot by allowing us to close more sales within a short period by creating a channel where we collaborate with customers by offering coupons, sending price lists and orders.

Alternatives Considered
Apart from Experlogix CPQ failing yo seamlessly integrate with a lot of external applications via API, it also has weak CPQ features and is not popular than IBM CPQ. That’s why we decided to shift from Experlogix few months after I joined AT&T.
