PRODUCT CONFIGURATOR
A simple and effective tool to sell your products more easily
A digital assistant capable of guiding the user through every stage of the choice and configuration of a complex product, helping them find the ideal solution and facilitating the submission of orders.
The Product Configurator offers an intuitive and immediate experience. Thanks to a simple and intuitive interface based on optimized progress steps, even the most complex choices are solved in a few seconds, without the need for advanced training. The guided navigation and intelligent configuration logic reduce errors in the choices, making it a powerful and easily accessible tool.
The Product Configurator ensures optimal product configurations thanks to an advanced engine based on structured data and compatibility and incompatibility rules for the choices made at each step. The result of the subsequent choices is always a product present in your company’s catalogue, without errors or misinterpretations.
The Product Configurator is used to generate requests for offers or purchase orders and integrates with the company's ERP systems for automated order management and with CRMs for collecting user data. Integration with different platforms happens through exposed APIs and standard communication protocols, optimizing workflows and minimizing inefficiencies.
