Why Companies Are Switching

Frustrated with Salesforce Revenue Cloud's complexity? You're not alone. While Salesforce has been the default choice for years, forward-thinking companies are discovering Subskribe CPQ offers a faster, simpler, and more cost-effective solution.

Common Salesforce Revenue Cloud Pain Points (And How Subskribe Solves Them)

1. Implementation Nightmares → Quick Time to Value

Salesforce requires 6-24 months of complex implementation with dedicated technical teams. Subskribe deploys in weeks with minimal IT support through its business-user-friendly interface.

Salesforce Reality:

  • 6-24 Month Implementation Cycles: Large enterprises typically spend up to two years getting their Salesforce system fully operational and customized to their needs.
  • Requires Dedicated Technical Team: Companies must hire or allocate specialized developers and technical staff solely for managing the Salesforce implementation.
  • Complex Configuration Process: Setting up even basic functionality requires extensive technical knowledge and custom coding.
  • Constant Maintenance Needs: The system requires ongoing technical maintenance and updates to stay functional.

Subskribe Advantage:

  • Weeks-Based Implementation: Companies can have their entire system up and running in a matter of weeks rather than months or years.
  • Minimal IT Support Required: The intuitive setup process can be handled primarily by business users without extensive IT involvement.
  • Built for Business Users: The platform is designed with non-technical users in mind, eliminating the need for coding knowledge.
  • Modern Architecture: The system's contemporary design ensures stability and reliability without constant tweaking.

2. Performance Issues → Lightning Fast Experience

Salesforce users face frequent delays and system timeouts. Subskribe provides instant quote generation and real-time updates through its modern cloud architecture.

Salesforce Reality:

  • Frequent Loading Delays: Users regularly experience frustrating wait times when accessing critical system features.
  • System Timeouts: Important tasks are often interrupted by system timeouts, forcing users to start over.

4. Hidden Costs → Transparent Pricing

Salesforce implementations often exceed $500K annually with hidden costs. Subskribe offers 80% lower costs through all-inclusive pricing and no technical hire requirements.
