How this site sources, labels and corrects its claims

What counts as a source

• The vendor’s own words. For Salesforce: the end-of-sale FAQ, the pricing page, knowledge articles and the developer guides. For Conga: its documentation and the AppExchange listing. For DealHub and Nue: their websites. For Kugamon: the AppExchange listing and kugamon.com.
• Primary records. Press releases from the acquirer (Thoma Bravo), regulatory or major-outlet reporting (Bloomberg), and dated AppExchange listings.
• Not sources. Third-party price listings, analyst estimates, review-site figures and community forum posts. They may be mentioned as what they are — a third-party listing — but never as a fact about the vendor.

The three labels

Estimates appear hatched in charts and labelled in tables. A page never presents an estimate in the same visual weight as a published figure.

Rules we hold ourselves to

• End of sale is not end of life. Salesforce CPQ stopped being sold to new customers in March 2025. Salesforce says it is supported, renewable, and has no announced end-of-life date. We never say or imply otherwise, and we never use a deadline to sell.
• No customer counts for competitors, no named-customer financials. We do not state how many customers a vendor has unless the vendor published it, and we never describe a named customer’s spend.
• Position against products, not against Salesforce. Kugamon runs on Salesforce. Comparisons are with Salesforce CPQ and Revenue Cloud Advanced as products.
• Vendor claims are attributed. “Native”, “seamless” and “end-to-end” are reported as the vendor’s description; our own test for native is the five questions.
• Timelines are ranges with a basis. Revenue Cloud Advanced’s 12–18 months is what full rebuilds take in practice; where Salesforce’s own page is quoted (3–6 months) it is labelled a best case, because a vendor’s implementation estimate describes the easiest project, not the typical one. Kugamon’s 4–8 weeks is stated as typical and scoped per customer.
• Object names come from documentation. Every SBQQ__, Apttus_ and Revenue Cloud Advanced object on this site is taken from the vendor’s object reference, not from memory.

The facts ledger and the monthly re-check

Every claim with a number, a date or a name lives in a facts ledger with its source URL and the date it was last verified. Once a month the ledger is re-checked against the sources: prices, ownership, product names, acquisitions, documentation status. Changes are applied across every page that carries the claim, the JSON-LD citations are updated, and a changelog entry records what changed and why. The same month, a sample of pages is tested against public AI assistants to check that what they cite from this site is what the site says.

How to report an error

Email kuldip@kugamon.com with the page URL and the source that contradicts it. Corrections are made within a few days and noted in the changelog. Vendors are welcome to correct anything said about their product; a link to the published page is all that is needed.

Who writes this

This site is published by Kugamon, a Salesforce-native quote-to-cash and subscription management vendor founded in 2009. That is a commercial interest, and it is why the rules above exist: the site is useful only if a team that ends up choosing Revenue Cloud Advanced, staying on Salesforce CPQ, or picking another vendor still finds every fact on it correct.
