Overview
Tacton is a CPQ vendor focused on manufacturers of complex, configurable products, with offices including Sweden and Germany[12]. Its software links commercial and technical teams so that sales configurations remain buildable, covering engineer-to-order (ETO) and smart configuration, configuration lifecycle management, configured order fulfilment and AI and data-driven selling[11].
Tacton integrates with Salesforce, Microsoft Dynamics 365 and SAP[11]. It positions its offering as a buyer-centric smart factory: one source of governed product knowledge that sellers, partners and customers can use without routine engineering support, and that connects custom orders to downstream systems to reduce errors and rework[12]. Tetra Pak has used Tacton CPQ since 2018 to manage its growing portfolio[12].
Tacton fits industrial manufacturers rather than software or services companies. Its configuration depth requires modelling effort, and pricing is quote-based.
