Direct peers

• Tacton: Tacton is a European-headquartered CPQ specialist focused on manufacturers of complex, engineer-to-order products, very similar to Visiativ CPQ's target use cases (industrial equipment, building products). It is one of the most direct competitors in the European mid-market CPQ segment, with comparable constraint-based configuration capabilities.
• Configure One (an Autodesk company): Configure One is a CPQ vendor specializing in configure-to-order and engineer-to-order manufacturers, now part of Autodesk. It targets the same discrete-manufacturing verticals as Visiativ CPQ and represents a direct competitor for complex product configuration deals.
• encoway (engelmann software): encoway is a German-based CPQ and product configuration specialist serving European industrial manufacturers. It is one of Visiativ CPQ's closest geographic and product-market competitors, particularly in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland, with comparable constraint-based configurator depth.
• KBMax: KBMax (Epicor CPQ) provides CPQ and 3D product configurator software for manufacturers, including a 3D-guided configuration experience similar to Visiativ's 2D/3D visualization. It is a direct peer in the mid-market CPQ space with strong visual configuration capabilities.
• Cincom Systems (Cincom CPQ): Cincom's CPQ and Configure-Price-Quote solutions target manufacturers selling complex configurable products, overlapping directly with Visiativ CPQ's buyer profile. It is a long-tenured peer in the dedicated-CPQ vendor category.
• PROS Holdings: PROS is a publicly-traded CPQ and pricing optimization vendor serving B2B manufacturers and distributors. Its Smart CPQ offering overlaps directly with Visiativ CPQ's value proposition of rule-driven configuration and automated pricing for complex product catalogs.

Broad incumbents

• PTC (Atlas / ThingWorx): PTC offers configuration capabilities within its Atlas SaaS and ThingWorx IoT/PLM portfolio, targeting discrete manufacturers. While not a pure-play CPQ vendor, its PLM-anchored configuration tools compete with Visiativ's PLM-CPQ integration story in industrial accounts.
• SAP (SAP CPQ / SAP Configure Price Quote): SAP CPQ (formerly CallidusCloud) serves large manufacturers and discrete industries with deep ERP-native integration, similar to Visiativ's positioning. It competes on enterprise-scale accounts where SAP ERP is the system of record, representing the closest 'incumbent' alternative for global manufacturers evaluating CPQ.
• Oracle (Oracle CPQ / Oracle Configure Price Quote): Oracle CPQ (BigMachines) is a long-standing CPQ platform sold alongside Oracle CX and Oracle ERP Cloud. It targets the same complex-product manufacturers as Visiativ CPQ, with a broader portfolio, larger sales force, and global footprint; competes where Oracle ERP/CRM is the anchor system.
• Salesforce (Revenue Cloud / Salesforce CPQ): Salesforce CPQ (Steelbrick) is the most-recognized enterprise CPQ product, sold as part of the broader Salesforce Sales Cloud suite to B2B sales organizations. It competes head-to-head with Visiativ CPQ for complex product configuration deals, with materially greater global reach, partner ecosystem, and bundled CRM distribution.
