Configurator License Cost Calculator

Use this calculator to allocate software subscription, seat, module, portal, and support costs to the configure-to-order program or quote volume.

What this calculator does

  • Estimate CPQ or configurator license cost for users, dealers, administrators, or product lines.
  • budgeting configurator software cost by user group or product family
  • The result estimates total configurator license and fixed platform cost for the selected scope.

Formula used

  • Variable configurator license cost = configurator seats or licensed users × license cost per seat or module × license cost scope included
  • Total configurator license cost = variable configurator license cost + fixed implementation and integration cost

Inputs explained

  • configurator seats or licensed users: Use named users, dealer seats, admin seats, portal users, modules, or product-line licenses in scope.
  • license cost per seat or module: Use annual subscription, module, portal, support, or platform cost on the same license basis.
  • license cost scope included: Use 100% for the full license group or less for one dealer channel, product family, plant, or business unit.
  • fixed implementation and integration cost: Include implementation services, SSO, ERP/CRM integration, sandbox, admin setup, and rollout support.

How to use the result
