## Don’t let legacy tech hold back your RevOps

See why SaaS leaders are switching from Salesforce CPQ to Nue

![Salesforce CPQ isn't evolving](https://rev.nue.io/hs-fs/hubfs/1-1.png?width=357&height=233&name=1-1.png)

#### Salesforce CPQ isn't evolving

With no further investment or product innovation, Salesforce CPQ leaves you stuck with outdated features and limited capabilities. Why settle for less in a fast-moving market?

![Slow, complex, and expensive](https://rev.nue.io/hs-fs/hubfs/2.png?width=358&height=233&name=2.png)

#### Slow, complex, and expensive

Salesforce CPQ requires heavy customization, long implementation times, and costly ongoing maintenance due to its outdated architecture.

![Not built for recurring billing](https://rev.nue.io/hs-fs/hubfs/3-1.png?width=357&height=233&name=3-1.png)

#### Not built for recurring billing

B2B SaaS companies need flexible pricing, fast deal execution, and seamless RevOps workflows. Salesforce CPQ can't keep up.

FAQ

## Need Clarification?

#### What is Nue?

Nue streamlines SaaS pricing models in an era of growing complexity.

Unlike traditional CPQ and billing systems, it's purpose-built for SaaS, offering Salesforce integration and flexibility.You can streamline quote-to-revenue, reduce SKUs, and gain robust reporting.Our Salesforce-native platform empowers end users for quotes, subscription management, billing, and insights, supporting every B2B SaaS pricing model.

#### Why do high growth companies choose Nue over Salesforce CPQ?

Big incumbents in the CPQ and billing market, such as Salesforce CPQ, weren’t made for the unique SaaS pricing models of today or the amount of upsells and changes required to grow customers. 

The underlying model of Salesforce CPQ, while a great product, was developed 15 years ago for manufacturing companies. It’s meant to handle physical product orders (hardware, shipments, etc) and is OK at handling basic subscription terms.

Nue is intentionally built as a modern quote-to-revenue for diverse SaaS use cases, and helps companies quickly design and roll out pricing models (across both self-service and direct sales motions) while reducing SKU proliferation and maximizing reporting capabilities.

#### How easy is it to migrate from Salesforce CPQ to Nue?

It is easy to migrate from CPQ to Nue, and does not require expensive consultants. Nue is native to Salesforce, which means we are using standard Salesforce objects across pricing, products, and quoting.

#### What are the primary use cases of Nue?

Nue was built for SaaS companies on any recurring billing model, along with capabilities for one-time services or entitlements. Additionally,  Nue also handles co-terms, upgrades, downgrades, and cross-sells within clicks. The platform shines with more complex pricing models like:

- Pricing tiers: Seat-based, volume-based, or term-based 
- Usage-based pricing: Credit burndown, pay-as-you-go, or usage overage
- In-app or product-led website sales

‍Because all this data is stored in your CRM, Nue can write complex product and invoicing data over to tools that historically couldn’t support sophisticated SaaS billing.

#### What is the benefit of Nue for RevOps and Sales?

Nue is a Salesforce-native tool that leverages standard objects and minimizes custom objects to create quotes, orders, and invoices which can be seamlessly integrated with your ERP.

The platform is structured so end users (Sales and CS/Account Management) never have to leave Salesforce. They can see a customer’s purchase history in an easy-to-understand UI. From a single page, sales teams can see past orders, subscriptions, usage, invoices, and billing history. They can also quickly create upgrades, downgrades, or cross-sell quotes – with a full view of product usage and what’s been invoiced. 

Keeping sales teams in Nue has proven to be a big efficiency boost and easier adoption of the platform, in addition to other benefits such as unified data and analytics.

#### What is the benefit of Nue for Finance?

Yes. Nue is well-prepared to handle usage-based pricing, and our platform gives end-to-end visibility for sales, product, and finance.

Nue allows API connections, including a connection to your product and its usage data. This means that usage-based pricing is possible in Nue, as well as in-app purchases or user-led expansions.

Because quoting and pricing interfaces in Nue are highly customizable, you can present customers with a curated list of possible upsell options. Moreover, because these quotes and purchase approvals are managed in Salesforce, companies no longer have to scramble to update monthly or quarterly usage calculations or in-app purchases at the end of the month.

#### Can Nue work with usage-pricing?

Yes. Nue is well-prepared to handle usage-based pricing, and our platform gives end-to-end visibility for sales, product, and finance.

Nue allows API connections, including a connection to your product and its usage data. This means that usage-based pricing is possible in Nue, as well as in-app purchases or user-led expansions.

Moreover, because these quotes and purchase approvals are managed in Salesforce, companies no longer have to scramble to update monthly or quarterly usage calculations or in-app purchases at the end of the month.

#### Does Nue integrate with other systems?

Y‍es. Nue integrates with NetSuite, QuickBooks, Stripe, Avalara, RightRev, and NetSuite ARM. Our platform also works well with any other Salesforce integrated partners.
