Does anyone have any insights on applications to manage price change approval workflows and associated governance? We're looking for a solution.
Is consumption-based IT (ie paying for IT services based on consumption rather than on a subscription basis) the right fit for your organisation?

Currently, our CPQ is tightly integrated with our ERP, providing unique features and functionalities that are not typically found in standalone CPQ solutions. For instance, we can perform mass updates to our BOMs (e.g., replacing one component with another, creating new BOM versions, keeping version and pricing history) directly within our current system.
Mass update capabilities for configurations are often not inherent to CPQ solutions, with vendors suggesting that such functionalities should reside within the ERP. As we transition to a new CPQ, we anticipate needing to use middleware, APIs, or interfaces to achieve similar outcomes.
I would greatly appreciate any insights or experiences you could share regarding the following:
1. Integration Experiences: How have you managed the integration between your CPQ and ERP systems, especially when using middleware or APIs? Especially interested to her from manufacturing companies who use 'smaller' ERP's (we don't use SAP).
2. Mass Update Capabilities: Are we unique in relying on our CPQ for mass updates to configurations, or is this a common challenge? How have others addressed this?
Thank you in advance for your valuable input!
We are a medium sized chemical manufacturing company divided into several business units. One of our business units has a 50 user process manufacturing ERP system. We are in the middle of negotiating our renewal for the software. I am interested in what others are seeing in terms of percentage increases for your annual renewals on a 3 year term.
