CUSTOMERS | Why Outperformers Love PROS
When your customers love you this much, it's enough to make you blush
PROS was founded on a philosophy of customer obsession. Our founders, Mariette and Ron Woestemeyer, believed that if you needed to run through a wall for a customer, you needed to run through that wall. Just remember to brush off the plaster.
And that spirit of customer obsession continues today, with every employee around the globe dreaming about their customers as they go to bed and tossing customer problems in their heads every morning in the shower.

CUSTOMERS | Outperforming with PROS
Between Q1 2022 and Q3 2023, customers using PROS outperformed market indices by more than 20 points.
“PROS Outperform Index Fund.” Unfortunately, you can’t buy this index fund on Wall Street, but if you could, you’d be beating the market indices by more than 20 points.
Companies using PROS software outperformed the major US stock market indexes over the last 2 years by more than 20 percentage points. Quite frankly, we’re not surprised — the PROS Profit & Revenue Optimization Platform gives companies what some might call an unfair advantage over their peers.
What is the nature of this “unfair advantage?” Simply put, PROS software is a new category of software which enables companies to digitize their product catalog and then use that centralized catalog to automate quoting and leverage AI to fine tune their costs and pricing. This digitize-automate-intelligence process enables companies to manage multiple sales channels with ease; give their buyers the digital buying experience they are demanding; and use dynamic buying and pricing to optimize margin. The result? An AI-powered way to drive profitable growth. You’re welcome.

INDUSTRIES | 40+ Industries and Growing
Our generalized P&RO platform and experience in 40+ industries means we can solve any business challenge!
PROS invented the concept of Dynamic Pricing for the airline industry in 1985, and today we have more than 150 airline customers. As Dynamic Pricing began to transform the airline industry, a discipline we called “revenue management” began to emerge which transformed the industry by helping an historically low-margin business optimize profit & revenue and become the amazing world-shrinking modern travel industry.
Smart innovators in other industries often look to the airline industry for new ideas because historically, the airline industry has led the world in digitization — it was one of the first industries to computerize, and their ongoing focus on passenger experience continues to push the envelope of innovation. So, over the last 20 years we’ve been customizing the software we developed for airlines for more than 40 other industries and hundreds of non-airline customers.
Today, whether you’re an oil & gas company trying to optimize margins, volume, and price while predicting competitive price moves, or a distributor with millions of SKUs trying to accelerate speed to market and improve efficiency, or a technology provider who wants to deliver accurate, timely quotes tailored to the customer — PROS is there for you. We work with industry System Integrators and major technology partners to customize the PROS Platform to meet the unique needs of your business.

OUTCOMES | Forrester TEI Report
Forrester Total Economic Impact Study concludes that PROS software delivers 400% ROI with 9-month payback
Total Economic Impact is a methodology developed by Forrester Consulting to help software companies communicate their value propositions.
For this study, Forrester interviewed a diverse set of PROS customers from various industries, operating in different parts of the world, to ensure that the results were applicable to companies of all shapes and sizes. Then, Forrester aggregated the interviewees’ experiences and combined the results into a single composite B2B organization.
The interviewees noted that prior to using PROS software, their organizations struggled with slow and highly manual processes for updating pricing guides, and they lacked data and analytical capabilities required to improve their GTM strategies. As a result of these limitations organizations lacked control over both their margin and revenue.
After implementing PROS, customers experienced dramatic increases in profit and revenue. Check it out →
