Common Client Challenges in USA (2025):

Disconnected Sales & Operations: Sales teams commit to forecasts that aren’t synced with production capacity.
Manual Forecasting: Excel-based demand planning is inaccurate and delays decision-making.
Lack of Partner Visibility: Distributors and channel partners lack insights into inventory, pricing, and deals.
Inflexible Systems: Legacy ERPs struggle to adapt to market changes or automation needs.
Inefficient Quote-to-Cash Process: Manual CPQ workflows cause delays and revenue loss.
