Estimating software provides an efficient way for salespeople and users to automatically calculating pricing for complex products.  Although simple estimating apps can be built using Excel, more complex products and larger organizations require custom software to handle the task.

apHarmony offers an order-entry platform with custom formula-based products and prices.  Since each product is dynamically resolved, any level of complexity can be encoded in the pricing and formulas.  Formulas can be customized per customer, per product, and per option, in any variety of configurations.  This enables businesses to take their products to the next level of competitiveness – and enabling sales to create custom pricing without generating months of additional work for the IT department.

Another key element of estimating software is the synchronization of pricing, products, and orders.  Estimating software enables the latest version of the software to be deployed to devices, and make sure that the prices are always up to date.  In addition, more advanced security can be integrated into the system, making sure that terminated employees and dealers no longer have access to pricing, and that entry into the system will be password-protected.

Effective estimating software may also optionally incorporate paperless contracts.  Salespeople and estimators will be able to deliver and sell the product in one meeting, without worrying about possible physical loss of contracts.  In addition, order status will be communicated with the database immediately, and offer up-to-date statistics of sales and results.
