Thanks to the partnership between CADENAS and Resolto, customers can create a configurator from their CAD data and make it available in over 100 CAD formats
The two software manufacturers CADENAS GmbH and Resolto Informatik GmbH, part of the Festo Group, have entered into a cooperation agreement. “We are very pleased about the partnership with CADENAS. The cooperation will enable customers to use CADENAS data to quickly and easily create their own CONFIGON product configurator and export configurations in over 100 native CAD formats,” explains Dr Oliver Niese, Member of the Management Board of Festo Didactic SE & Head of Digital Business Festo SE & Co. KG.
The CONFIGON product configurator from Resolto is ready to use without installation and enables the configuration of complex products – conveniently and error-free in 3D. In addition to the quotation, CONFIGON generates all the data required for production and transmits the order.
Self Service Configurator
Component manufacturers who want to offer their customers an optimized shopping experience provide them with a product configurator. What sounds complex and is usually a case for the programmer, can be solved with the help of CONFIGON. Thanks to an intuitive modular system, a visually appealing configurator can be created based on CADENAS data without programming (no-code), with which products can be configured error-free with just a few clicks. This has many benefits, such as reducing the workload on your own staff and making planning and sales processes faster and more efficient.
More than CPQ
CPQ (Configure Price Quote) systems enable automated pricing and support the creation of quotations. CONFIGON covers the functionality of a CPQ system and offers additional benefits such as accelerating the quotation process and supporting sales generation through guided selling and simplified cross-selling and up-selling. "We took a close look at the CPQ market and asked our customers what annoyed them about conventional CPQ systems. The simple implementation of a set of rules was the decisive factor for us to work with Resolto," explains Wolfgang Nagl, Vice President International Sales eCatalogues & Digital Twins at CADENAS.
CONFIGON with CADENAS solution
The collaboration between CADENAS and Resolto is impressive and offers many valuable benefits to component manufacturers:
- Export of all relevant documents and native CAD models of the configuration
- You receive specific requests for quotations through to directly triggered orders for production
- Complex products are made accessible through simple configurability
- Independent item and rule maintenance without programming and additional costs
