Episode #54 – Moving Beyond Legacy Pricing Systems
What is getting in the way of real-time dynamic pricing capabilities for B2B companies? For most, it’s the outdated legacy systems of record and systems of management for pricing. The predominant systems – ERP and Excel, respectively – are unable to keep up with the pace of change in the market nor customer demand for a B2C-like buying experience. Zilliant Senior Vice President of Products & Science Pete Eppele stops by to share an immediate opportunity to drive more value and an attainable long-term vision for real-time pricing.
