We build and integrate custom power systems and this software allows us and our customer to select the correct parts and options. This also allows us to monitor the cost and profit margin for each project.

The ability to manipulate the interface to do what you need it to do. The ease of use is fantastic for the end user.

I really don’t have anything negative to say about this software.

I always had a good relationship with Configure One Team, he supported me to match the business goals and build a new technology structure for the companies I worked in.

The software includes lots of functionalities and this helps to fit to different industrial sectors. It can be used worldwide harmonizing processes and documents in an unique platform. It can be integrated with CRM and ERP tools building a comprehensive user experience for both internal and external users.

Probably a new method to manage the translations must be considered, specifically user interface and quote template translations. Local support teams to be considered in the future.

Overall, they are very responsive, and relatively robust. They offer a suite of features, some more stable than others. Integrations with other software can be cumbersome, and buggy at times.

It was easy to use for a beginner to learn. The users are able to create input charts that drive by filter. This is a very useful tool if the users already have data driven tables. And you are able to import them directly into the application. With the right people you are able to make a quick implementation. Also, they give you direct access to writing queries.

Configure one offers a variety of features. Some of the features that our company was sold on, were over-promised and under-delivered; often needing customization that was costly, and buggy. Configure One tends to steer you in their direction for training and extra features that cost a lot of money, and may not be architecturally sound enough to support your implementation. If you use Configure One, be aware of what you can do with the out-of-box functionality first, before using other training.

Configurator Cloud Based Link to Salesforce Ability to come up with templates.

The Amount of mouse Clicks required. Software feels optimized for Large complex configurations. Struggled with finding efficient ways of adding lots of salable items.

Configure one streamlined our quoting process and helped us get new sales people productive more quickly.

Very easy to navigate through and build a quote quickly.

Minimal amount of supported CRMs that can work with it.

We have a highly customizable product that still must function within the bounds of industry standards and physical capabilities. Both of which are not the same. Configure One allowed us to reduce our quotation time to minutes instead of days for 90% of our quotes. The customer service during configuration and implementation was amazing. Our assigned consultant [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] was quick to respond to questions and issues; usually within an hour. I enjoyed the "mentor" approach both [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] used to guide our company to get the most efficient use out of the software. They were able to supply various configuration options for different items such as quotes, BOMs, and pricing while weighing the pros and cons specific to our needs. For implementation, I would suggest having an admin with experience in HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. It's not required, but will likely speed up the implementation process. Configure One provides excellent customization services or user training as necessary.

The admin and user training is very thorough. The customer service during configuration and implementation is the best I've ever experienced from any software company. The software is easy to navigate and once the general software structure and processes are understood, it's fairly easy to configure and implement.

While comprehensive, the software is not a one-size-fits-all application. It would be unfair to expect it to conform to everything we do exactly as we do it. As with most software applications, compromises need to be made. With that said, Configure One does offer customizations that would have solved our needs but we chose to go the customer implementation route. Of all the configuration software we researched, Configure One met most of our requirements by a large margin.

Very good, easy to customize, easy to use. It's wonderful to convey its value to customer

I really like the hands-on approach to this program. The ability to actually configure (pardon the pun) and customize all the features is, in my view, important, very important.

I do not like the entry level price, it mean a cost too high to entry level for SMB. The licensing should be in my view lower to cost.

Experience has been great. The C1 team’s knowledge is second to none. They always help when we need it.

I like that it has the ability to be customized to fit our industry. We can make the program ours and create features solely for us.

Its integration with NetSuite. Which is not really Configure Ones fault. I wish there were more options and flexibility between the two partners.

We are trying to help our guide our sales personnel through a list of questions that will determine which machine is the proper machine to sell the customer. The hope is that, as we grow as a company, this tool will help distributors and new sales people to choose the right machine for the customer's application. We also hope to use this tool in the future to speed up the manufacturing process by integrating it with an ERP. Even though we only have one portion of this in production so far, it has already helped us re-evaluate and improve our current processes.

It is very easy to use. We were able to get portions of our configurator into production in less than 4 months. The team that I work with at Configure One are very helpful and knowledgeable.

The help menus do not have enough information. The HTML coding help menus also needs to be improved.

Overall we have used ConfigureOne for many years now. It's a global tool, and deployed across multiple countries.

Good integration with Salesforce and a lot of customization possible if you have the skillset.

Expensive for custom projects if you want to taylor to your business.

The ease of setting up new inputs, products, adding the results and use of the logic.

The automatic logged out error keeps popping up now and again (regardless the use of browser and open programs). Too bad the level of discount cannot be arranged in C1 in the way we need it (standard functionallity). The set-up of our 4- and 6- numbers is pretty complex and time consuming. Would be nice if this could be simplified.

Versatility and overall implementation is accessible. Customer service is really good to match the software capabilities to business needs.

Processes can be a little complicated to follow. Implementation for certain options can be time consuming and alternatives can be difficult to accomplish. Understanding the program reach is not straight forward.

The system allows us to give quotes quickly to our customer. Overall Concept has worked well for us.

Reliability and integration with our ERP system JDE

When we do have a problem its hard to get in touch with someone right away.

We needed a way to have all of our Sales team create consistent quotes. And also trap the items that need special attention. With Concept / Configure One , we are able to create consistent quotes and add password approvals for things we wish to force a conversation on.

You don't have to be a full on coder to modify and content to this Site

Page refreshes are probably necessary but they are noticeable and i don't remember seeing this on other sites that do the same thing.

With over 1 million combinations of configurations this product is great to show valid options taking into account very specific rules & stipulations. The ability to build the actual product in the real-time 2D is a great tool for customers visually. The software uses basic logic and Excel spreadsheets for ease of set-up.

Some basic items you'd think were easy to set up, require more background work than originally thought. Appearance is relatively basic/rudimentary.

The ability to customize the interface and the power the software gives to both our users and administrators is amazing.

The learning curve to achieve full potential is steep, but worth the effort.

The ability to customize the software for our specific business needs.

The number of user permissions with each user group

The versatility of features works for most needs

Software accessibility and usability needs to be improved

So far so good.

The software is straight forward and the support staff is extremely helpful.

It could use more features. There are areas that could use an Import Option.

There is a lot to learn when developing the configurator, but the Configure One team is there every step of the way to answer questions and help you solve problems. We have a very custom product line and they are helping us get what we need - even if it's out of the ordinary! The team is so great to work with!

We are still in the development phase and while we have run into some things that we'd like to do but can't, they are not deal breakers; we just need to adjust our way of thinking.

This software connects nearly seamlessly to NETSUITE and we can update it and maintain it ourselves without expensive support contracts. The implementation staff listened very carefully and responded quickly to our sales and reporting needs.

Implementation always takes longer and is more complex than originally considered but, in my experience, that's been the case with any highly-connected software tool.

Automation for estimating and manufacturing work flow processes.

Very versatile and flexible but robust to handle everything we are doing now and going into the future.

Somewhat complex for initial set up but that allows for the flexibility.

We are using CO as a sales tool for our own product, making it easier for customers to configure our services to match their needs.

Ability to customize to our specific needs

No cons come to mind; the Configure One team was very helpful in walking us through how to use the software
