Question 1

What is Salesforce Revenue Cloud Advanced?

Accepted Answer

Revenue Cloud Advanced (RCA) is Salesforce’s successor to Salesforce CPQ, sold since 2025 as part of Revenue Cloud. It is a separate product with a new data model and multiple packages, priced at $200 per user per month (Advanced) or $150 (Growth) on Salesforce’s pricing page. Salesforce estimates a typical CPQ-to-RCA migration at 3–6 months. Kugamon is the Salesforce-native alternative at $65 per user per month.

Question 2

Is Salesforce CPQ end of life?

Accepted Answer

No. It’s end of sale. Salesforce stopped selling CPQ to new customers in March 2025; existing customers can renew, add users, and receive support, and Salesforce has announced no end-of-life date. It is in maintenance mode — no new features — and in July 2026 Salesforce retired the online documentation in favor of a single PDF.

Question 3

What’s the difference between Salesforce CPQ, Revenue Cloud Advanced, and Kugamon?

Accepted Answer

Salesforce CPQ (SBQQ) is the legacy product, now end of sale — no longer sold to new customers. Revenue Cloud Advanced is its replacement — a brand-new architecture and data model, sold at $200/user/month, with no first-party Salesforce migration tool (Salesforce points customers to partner accelerators such as Forsys RevRamp, IdeaHelix, and Prodly). Kugamon is the #1 rated native CPQ on AppExchange (4.9 stars across 130+ public reviews) — same Salesforce-native architecture, same data model your admins already know, with quote, order, billing, and subscriptions in one package starting at $65/user/month.

Question 4

How is migrating to Kugamon different from migrating to Revenue Cloud Advanced?

Accepted Answer

Revenue Cloud Advanced requires a complete rebuild — new data model, new architecture, no first-party Salesforce migration tool (Salesforce points to partner accelerators — Forsys RevRamp, IdeaHelix, Prodly). Salesforce’s own page says a typical migration runs 3–6 months; ecosystem reports of longer, over-budget projects are common, usually with an SI partner. Kugamon migrations average 4–8 weeks because we extend the Salesforce data model your admins already manage. Your Products, Price Books, and Accounts transfer directly. Most customers don’t need an SI partner.

Question 5

If we’re still on Salesforce CPQ, do we have to do anything urgent?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Even if your CPQ runs fine today, the support window is closing and security patches are slowing. Most Salesforce account teams are now actively pushing migration conversations into 2026. Starting a Kugamon parallel-run now means you’re cut over by Q3 2026 — well ahead of the renewal-cliff scramble. Using the calculator on this page, most teams find that a Kugamon migration pays for itself before their next CPQ renewal.

Question 6

What is the best alternative to Salesforce CPQ?

Accepted Answer

Kugamon is the #1 rated native Salesforce CPQ alternative on AppExchange — 4.9 stars across 130+ public reviews. It is built entirely on the Salesforce platform — no middleware, no external database — with sub-3-second quote generation on catalogs of 100,000+ products.

Question 7

Does Kugamon support subscription management and billing?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Kugamon includes native subscription management, co-terming, renewals, amendments, revenue scheduling, invoicing, and ASC 606 revenue recognition — all built on Salesforce with no third-party integration required.

Question 8

Is Kugamon available on Salesforce AppExchange?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Kugamon is available on Salesforce AppExchange and is the #1 rated CPQ solution in its category — 4.9 stars across 130+ public reviews (https://appexchange.salesforce.com/appxListingDetail?listingId=a0N30000001f1q1EAA). A 30-day free trial is available directly from AppExchange.
