If you're using Salesforce CPQ, you’ve likely heard the news: Salesforce is officially sunsetting CPQ. With no new licenses, limited updates, and eventual termination of support, businesses relying on Salesforce CPQ must now carefully consider their next move. So, what does this mean for your organization?
At Luxent, we've been a trusted Salesforce partner since 2009. Recognizing the need for a robust, fully integrated, and user-friendly quoting solution, we developed Luxent's iQ CPQ—a 100% Salesforce-native Configure, Price, Quote solution. Launched on the Salesforce AppExchange in 2013, Luxent's iQ CPQ has evolved significantly, becoming a powerful tool that helps your sales team streamline their quoting process and close deals faster.
Let's explore what the Salesforce CPQ end-of-sale truly means and how you can smoothly transition to a sustainable, long-term solution.
What Does “End-of-Sale” Actually Mean?
Salesforce isn't discontinuing support overnight, but their strategic shift is evident. Here's what you need to know:
- Current Salesforce CPQ Users: You’ll continue receiving limited updates and support, but Salesforce hasn't committed to a clear End-of-Life date—meaning support could end abruptly.
- Potential New Users: Salesforce CPQ is no longer available for new implementations, forcing you to immediately consider alternative CPQ solutions.
- Future Proofing Your Business: Waiting until support dwindles means risking operational disruption. Planning your migration proactively is crucial.
Delaying your decision could lead to rushed, costly migrations. But there's good news: Luxent's iQ CPQ offers a seamless alternative that lets you remain within the Salesforce ecosystem.
