The Fate of CRM and CPQ Solutions in the Age of Generative AI

Generative AI is developing fast. We can see many activities covered by CRM and even CPQ (Configure Price Quote) solutions that AI could enhance or even replace. In this webinar, PROS and our partner Walpole engage in an open discussion on whether we think traditional CRM and CPQ solutions have a future, and what does that future look like.

Key Topics:

  • What are the capabilities of generative AI that are most applicable in a CRM/CPQ context?
  • What are the CRM/CPQ activities where AI can have the biggest impact?
  • Assuming there is a future for CRM/CPQ, what might that future look like?
