Complex pricing configuration doesn't have to be complex. Nue removes the need for extensive product training or manual calculations by giving your reps real-time guidance that makes selling even the most complex configurations feel natural and intuitive.

The problem with traditional production configuration

Product complexity can be a significant roadblock for sales teams. New reps need months to learn the intricacies of your team's tooling, while more experienced reps struggle with configuration errors.

  • Sales cycles lengthen due to reps' configuration challenges.
  • Pricing errors result in lost deals.
  • Only senior reps can manage intricate setups.
  • Customers become impatient with slow quote delivery.

As your product catalog grows and pricing rules multiply, manual configuration becomes impossible to manage accurately.

How Nue Handles Intelligent Pricing Configuration

Nue provides intelligent guidance throughout the entire selling process, turning tedious product configuration into a powerful sales edge.

The Dynamic Product Configurator

When your reps add products to quotes, Nue launches its intuitive configuration interface, showing all available options:

  • Compatible product combinations
  • Required vs. optional components
  • Quantity relationships and constraints
  • Real-time pricing impacts
  • Relevant upsell opportunities

Reps can configure freely, knowing that Nue prevents errors and incompatibilities automatically.

Intelligent recommendations

Nue understands your product relationships and customer patterns. When customers select core products, Nue suggests:

  • Logical add-ons based on purchase history
  • Complementary products that enhance value
  • Common bundles for similar customers
  • Volume-based optimization opportunities

These suggestions feel logical and helpful rather than pushy, because they're based on what similar customers have purchased.

Real-time pricing confidence

Nue's real-time calculation engine handles the heavy lifting of pricing complexity. Every configuration change shows the immediate pricing impact.

 

Add users? See per-seat costs decrease.

Increase volume? Watch tiered discounts apply.

Select add-ons? See bundle savings instantly.

 

Nue can easily handle sophisticated pricing models:

  • tiered volume structures, percentage-based minimums
  • regional variations
  • partner channel rates
  • promotional discounts.

Nue knows some deals require guardrails and enforces business rules automatically. Discount thresholds trigger approval workflows, minimum quantities ensure profitability, product dependencies maintain compatibility, and pricing floors protect margins.

What makes this valuable:
  • Sales move faster when every rep can configure complex solutions efficiently
  • Pricing errors disappear with automated guidance and compatibility checks
  • Customers don't wait thanks to responsive, accurate quoting in record time
  • Finance is happy knowing sellers are quoting within approved guardrails

This allows reps to experiment freely, knowing every calculation is accurate, while finance sleeps better knowing reps aren't quoting solutions they're not supposed to.

Real-World Example: Unified Communications Platform

Take, for example, Acme Communications, a company that offers voice, video and messaging solutions. Each of their products has multiple tiers, add-ons, and integration requirements. In the past, only senior reps could configure complete solutions.

 

With Nue's quote configuration:

  • A junior rep begins with the customer's voice requirements.
  • Nue recommends video based on customer's user count.
  • The configurator shows messaging integration options.
  • Pricing adjusts automatically for bundle discounts
  • A professional quote is generated in just minutes.

The rep confidently presents a solution that would've required a product specialist, before the discovery call even ends.

The benefits for your team

Sales reps can configure complex solutions efficiently with real-time guidance. They spend less time learning product intricacies and more time selling, while new hires ramp faster with automated assistance.

 

Sales managers see increased deal velocity and fewer pricing errors. They can confidently deploy junior reps on complex deals knowing the configurator prevents mistakes.

 

Finance teams get consistent pricing adherence and margin protection. They can trust that every quote follows approved parameters without slowing down the sales process.

Who Needs This?

If your business has:

  • Complex product catalogs requiring extensive configuration knowledge
  • Rapidly scaling sales teams needing faster ramp times
  • Sophisticated pricing models with multiple variables
  • Competitive markets demanding quick quote turnarounds
