About Hive CPQ

Hive CPQ is a Configure Price Quote software for manufacturers of complex products. The solution simplifies the sales process by allowing users to configure products, consult accurate prices, and generate quotes with ease. It supports sales in six different steps:

  1. CONFIGURATION: The Hive product configurator enables users to compose products until they perfectly meet the customer’s wishes. Interactive 3D models and predetermined questions help users through the configuration. Our rules engine instantly validates all product configurations, so inaccurate configurations cannot be ordered.

  2. PRICE: Hive CPQ immediately calculates the correct price for the product configuration based on price lists provided by manufacturers. Our software takes variables such as different pricing per region, volume discounts or pricing per customer group into account. Say goodbye to calculating prices manually.

  3. QUOTE: Generate a customized quote within minutes with Hive CPQ. Use templates made by your marketing team, the Hive CPQ engine will instantly fill out the product and pricing information, including 3D models.

  4. ORDER: Place your order online on Hive CPQ. Our software will immediat...

ely send the information to the right places in your technological environment (your ERP, CRM, CAD or other systems). 5. PRODUCTION: Time to start producing! Hive CPQ has already validated the configurations and spare parts, so production happens more smoothly. The order status can be tracked on the platform at any time. 6. CUSTOMER SERVICE: Identifying the correct spare part in customer service can be a real challenge. Hive CPQ has a unique system to avoid costly mistakes: Using exploded views of all products, Bill Of Materials (BOMs), and product serial numbers, users can quickly identify and re-order their spare parts. The extensiveness of our solution makes Hive unique in the CPQ market. Hive CPQ is a perfect fit for manufacturers and their distribution network. Distributors get their own login to the software and can configure or order products without the help of a sales representative. Incoming orders have already been validated, so manufacturers can immediately start producing. This creates a huge boost in the volume of closed sales!

    Cons:
    For the time being, I have not found anything that could be improved. An added value would be 3D, but they are already working on that.

    Al mijn klanten zitten op grote afstand, en in andere tijdszones, dankzij Hive kunnen zij op ieder moment hun offertes aanmaken, en ook bestellingen plaatsen in ons systeem, dit heeft een heel positieve invloed op de "ease of doing business" met onze firma. Ik denk dat wij de eerste gebruiker waren van Hive met ons, merk Dynaco, en nu hebben onze andere 2 merken, Ditec en Nergeco ook deze module, dus hieruit blijkt dat zowel wij als onze klanten heel tevreden zijn met het systeem

    Pros:
    To begin with, Hive's online CPQ platform does what it is expected to do: it provides an intuitive and simple but very powerful tool to optimize and boost our sales process. We use the tool for the configuration of radiators, which is complex and requires the necessary expertise. Now this can be done in a fraction of the time and is technically always correct. Also important are the implementation process and -time, plus the good communication and cooperation with the Hive people. The finitial integration was completed in just over two months, and we have been working with it for several months to everyone's satisfaction.
    Cons:
    It is a process. Once you start with it, there are always things that can be improved. Things related to the software and/or to our own needs and customer demands. Everything can be discussed and solutions are presented in mutual consensus.

    Pros:
    With Hive, our distributors can Configure a complex product, personalize the Quote and send it to their customers in a few clicks / minutes. Hive is user friendly, super fast and 99.99% uptime. With the HIVE Team, we were able to integrate it to all our systems. Thanks to their highly responsive support!
    Cons:
    The integration was not the easiest part, our applications were not HIVE ready, but HIVE Specialists are ready for everything.

    Reasons for choosing Hive CPQ

    We choose HIVE for one main reason, it's more than a software solution, HIVE team is helping us every day, understanding our needs.

    Reasons for switching to Hive CPQ

    Pros:
    Hive CPQ is very easy to use for the end users. They are using the latest technologies, it's easy to integrate with other systems using their REST API's and it works well on different browsers and platforms. The product configurator offers a lot of flexibility.
    Cons:
    Some settings are still missing (like the permission to allow or disallow the user to put an order in step 3/4) - but it's a new product and more functionality is still being added.

    Reasons for switching to Hive CPQ

    We were using our own product configurator, it was outdated , not that user friendly anymore, and it became difficult to maintain and keep supporting it.

    Thank you for the feedback, Jochen!

    Pros:
    HiveCPQ is a great tool, very easy to implement (with a good help from the HiveCPQ team), very easy to use, it saved us a lot of time, avoiding tons of papers and administrative work. Quotes are made directly by the dealers, which is more convenient for them, we even saw an increase of quotes by 30% ! Ordering process is very smooth, fast and clear... Available in several languages, which is also very good to sell your products worldwide. It really changed our lives, far less stress in the back office and more time dedicated to customer service !
    Cons:
    nothing to say.... the team is always helpful, the live chat option is really great, for us as for our dealers.

    Always a pleasure doing business with you, Gilles! Thank you for the kind words.

    Het grootste pluspunt van HiveCPQ is de bereidwilligheid en professionaliteit van de "configurator wizards" a.k.a. het Hive team. De implementatie loopt vlot en het team komt zelf met veel voorstellen ivm UX waar we zelf nog niet aan gedacht hadden. Ook voor de integratie van deze software met onze overige productiesoftware lijkt geen probleem te zijn en het team stelt zich heel flexibel op tov de andere partijen waarmee moet geïntegreerd worden. Het platform zelf is zeer gebruiksvriendelijk, zowel voor interne medewerkers alsook externe dealers die er gebruik van maken.

    Reasons for choosing Hive CPQ

    There was a fit to be able to link 2 configurators. But naturally extra specific developments had to be made.
