DealHub.io vs. Emptoris

DealHub is great for making quick quotes on the fly and allows for the ability to draft proposals before going through a deeper internal review process. I love how DealHub auto-updates Salesforce as well, so I don't have to go back and update areas on the opportunity record twice. DealHub also reduces error significantly since it intelligently knows our products and the differentiators that have been set up by our admins.

• It consolidates the budget after invoicing in a summary.
• All your receipts and invoices are managed on one platform.
• It is also a single platform to see all your P50's, P2P and order in one place (statement of work)
• It a good tool for managing projects.

• Nothing too specific here since this is the first CPQ tool I've used; maybe the training around how the actual DealRoom presents to a customer would have been helpful, but I operate more in an old-school way and like to send my contracts directly to the people I'm working with via email or DocuSign... the whole DealRoom thing scares me a little.

I personally haven't had to reach out directly to the DealHub team, but they did a great job enabling our director of RevOps, who is basically our one-stop shop for all DealHub related questions. We've never had a question (in my experience) that needed to be raised to the actual DH support team.

The above rating for the overall support from Emptoris is for their product / product support, roll out training and refresher training / ongoing training, which is not only good but superior. There is no major or reconizable bad review that can be given to Emptoris at this point in time, from where is stands.

We selected DealHub due to it's guided selling motion and subscription object that helps with expansion, upsell, cross sell and renewal opportunities after the initial sale. The guided selling allows users to think less about the quote process and simply answer questions to get them to an output. The subscription object allows us to make contract amendments mid-term easily while tracking accurately in Salesforce without any problems. The low/no-code aspect of the platform is nice, but I would say that it is more complex than that claim may imply.

We eventually selected Apttus because of its close ties to Salesforce and quick implementation process. We were able to get the application installed and live in just a few weeks. For our purposes, it was a much better fit for us to generate and store contracts for our company without having to force a link to procurement.
