In order to gather both qualitative and quantitative insights, supply-side and demand-side stakeholders were interviewed during the primary research process. CEOs, CTOs, VPs of Product Development, chief revenue officers, and heads of customer success from CPQ software vendors, system integrators, and cloud infrastructure providers were examples of supply-side sources. Chief information officers (CIOs), vice presidents of sales operations, directors of pricing strategies, procurement leads from manufacturing organizations, retail chains, telecommunications companies, healthcare systems, and IT services firms were among the demand-side sources. Market segmentation, product roadmap timelines, pricing models, integration difficulties, and ROI indicators were all confirmed by primary research.

Product mapping across cloud deployment, on-premises installation, hybrid models, and feature categories including pricing management, quotation management, sales analytics, and contract lifecycle management
Analysis of reported and modeled annual revenues specific to CPQ software portfolios
Coverage of vendors representing 75-80% of global market share in 2024
Extrapolation using bottom-up (enterprise seat licenses × ASP by deployment model and region) and top-down (vendor revenue validation) approaches to derive segment-specific valuations
