The Nucleus Research CPQ Technology Value Matrix is concise assessment of the operational value a solution delivers. It provides a relative positioning of the important vendors in a market area and delivers a framework for assessing the suitability of a solution for a particular customer. It evaluates vendors according to the usability and functionality of their solutions and considers the return on investment (ROI) that customers are realizing from those solutions.

“Over the last 12 months,” the Nucleus report notes, “Infor has introduced notable enhancements to its CPQ offerings. The vendor incorporated role-based access for data import API management, ensuring more streamlined and secure data handling, and an improvement in the usability of 3D design automation. In line with Infor’s dedication to seamless integration, the Call Creo CAD Add-in Rule has been integrated, enabling CREO Extensions within CPQ. This offers an enriched CAD 2D/3D integration experience for users.

“In addition,” the report states, “Enterprise Quoting (EQ) has been revamped, adopting Infor Portal UI themes and further leveraging Infor OS functionalities and integration capabilities. This not only simplifies the quoting process but also ensures it aligns with the broader Infor ecosystem. Infor has also introduced industry-specific packs for Automotive Supplier and ETO Manufacturing, showcasing its dedication to tailor-fit solutions.”
