CIS is consistently making the product better. I would mention that photo uploads are not tied to product or option codes meaning it is time consuming. > > Working with \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\] is always a pleasure. I would highly recommend CIS for your configurator needs. ----- ### "CIS Configurator" — 5.0/5 > **Scott** | *13 June 2019* | Oil & Energy | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Easy to get up and running; very reliable - virtually 100% up-time in 3 years of use; excellent customer service. > > **Cons**: As with any software, it was not always able to perfectly reproduce our legacy processes. However, we were always able to find an acceptable alternative. > > We migrated from an excel-based quoting system to the CIS Configurator about 3 years ago. We use this application to configure and quote complex engineering systems. The Configurator was able to handle the logic that was previously handled using complex excel formulas and look-up tables. Salespeople are able to learn the system quickly - we have over 100 users with a variety of technical and non-technical backgrounds. Overall, we're very happy with the software. ----- ### "Quote Builder works as advertised." — 4.0/5 > **Curtis** | *28 May 2015* > > Pros: Quote Builder works as advertised. The integration of Quote Builder to Model Builder and the configurations is what sold us on the tool. Standard Quoting is Standard Quoting, but when tied to the Configurator your Sales Team are free to no longer remember Product Codes, but answer the questions and let the system resolve those questions and answers to the Products you sell. CIS has been a great partner in adding customizations to fit our needs. Whereas nothing is free in this world, their prices for customizations and changes are not out of line. Cons: Our only complaint has been the inability to customize our own Quote forms to fit our needs. Any changes need to go through CIS to get the forms as we need or to add new ones. ----- ### "User friendly but it has show problems in the past such as no connectivity or slows down a lot." — 5.0/5 > **Guillermo** | *16 November 2017* | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Easy to use, it takes you step by step, it has and does everything I need for quotation purposes and lets me convert my files in to pdf easily. > > **Cons**: Slows down a lot some times, once you select an item and press continue or ok it takes a long time to show the next window of options, we've experience connectivity problems as well. > > Faster quotation process. ----- ### "CIS Configurator" — 5.0/5 > **Tony** | *12 June 2019* | Consumer Goods | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Usability., Customization to fit Products and uses > > **Cons**: Cannot Comment as there is really nothing I do not like. > > For our business this software has been a great. ----- Page: 1 / 2\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/30969/cis-configurator?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/30969/cis-configurator) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
