Tacton CPQ Embeddable Self Service

Embeddable online configurator for complex industrial products – customers configure, calculate, and order around the clock, directly on your website.

With Tacton CPQ Embeddable Self-Service, you embed the same powerful configurator your sales team uses every day as a ready-made HTML component directly into your company website.

Tacton CPQ Embeddabel Self Service

Product configuration directly on your website – without the sales detour

Customers and dealers can independently configure your complex industrial products, calculate prices, and request quotes – 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, without any manual sales effort.

The Embeddable Self-Service is the successor solution to the API-based Tacton CPQ Customer Self-Service and replaces complex custom development with ready-to-use components – with the same product logic, the same pricing rules, and the same validation engine as in the internal Tacton CPQ.

From Customer Self-Service to Embeddable Self-Service

Tacton has fundamentally modernized its self-service approach. The new generation replaces the previous API-based approach with an embeddable, ready-to-use solution.

Technical Integration

Der bisherige Customer Self Service setzte auf eine reine API-Schnittstelle: Unternehmen mussten ein eigenes Frontend von Grund auf entwickeln, das über diese API an die Tacton-Konfigurationsmaschine angebunden wurde. Das erforderte spezialisierte Entwicklerressourcen und eine vollständige Eigenimplementierung der Benutzeroberfläche. Das neue Embeddable Self Service löst diesen Aufwand durch sofort einsatzfähige HTML-Komponenten ab, die sich per Drop-in direkt in jede bestehende Website einfügen lassen – ohne eine individuelle Lösung aufbauen zu müssen.

Setup Effort

With Customer Self-Service, the implementation effort was correspondingly high: depending on project complexity, weeks to months of development time had to be planned before the first buyer could use the website for configuration. The Embeddable Self-Service significantly reduces this effort. Thanks to the pre-built components and the direct connection to the existing Tacton CPQ instance, companies become productive much faster – without having to sacrifice functionality or the proven configuration logic.

Configure, Calculate, Buy – without any media discontinuity

Tacton CPQ Embeddabel Self Service

Embed Widget

Ready-made HTML components are integrated into your website or web store via drop-in – no custom API development required.

Customers configure independently

Buyers navigate through guided configuration steps based on exactly the same product rules and pricing logic as in the internal Tacton CPQ.

Sales steps in when needed

Your team can view the ongoing configuration at any time, adjust prices, or actively provide support on complex deals – before the quote is finalized.

Quote generated automatically

After the configuration is completed, a valid, approval-ready quote is automatically generated and transferred to your CRM/ERP.

Benefits of Tacton CPQ Embeddable Self-Service

24/7 Sales without additional costs

Your digital configurator works around the clock and generates qualified inquiries – without additional sales resources.

Guaranteed valid configurations

Every configuration follows the same technical rules as in the internal CPQ – incorrect or non-buildable variants are excluded.

Fully embeddable into your website

The widget adapts to your corporate design – no redirecting to external pages, no branding inconsistency.

Sales & Buyer Collaboration

Unlike its predecessor, the sales team can step into an ongoing configuration at any time and actively support strategically valuable deals.

Role-based price transparency

Dealers see their purchase prices, end customers see the list price – your margins remain protected at all times.

Scale revenue without scaling costs

Unlock new markets and customer segments through self-service, without growing the sales team proportionally.

Increase your sales efficiency and customer satisfaction – with Tacton CPQ.

Today everyone has e-commerce. We have fewer and fewer workers and more and more customer demand. Self-service is therefore the only right way forward.

Frequently Asked Questions

The FAQs answer questions about model simplification using Lino Simplify.

Here you’ll find answers to questions about automated model simplification in SolidWorks. Learn how Lino Simplify reduces assembly complexity, improves performance, makes reverse engineering more difficult, and protects sensitive design details—without losing important design information.

How does the photorealistic 3D representation of layouts build trust in the sales process?

Lino Hub 3D Layout displays plants and layouts realistically and in all dimensions. Customers grasp spatial relationships and dimensions much more easily than with complex technical drawings and can see their individual solution already during the sales process. This consistent, visual basis for decision-making builds mutual trust and contributes significantly to customer loyalty.

What advantages does Lino Hub 3D Layout offer in the quotation process and in sales?

The intuitive, CAD-independent layout creation ensures short lead times and an efficient, standardized quotation process. Changes and variants can be implemented quickly, which reduces misunderstandings already at the planning stage. Sales teams can present complex products interactively and clearly instead of relying on elaborate technical drawings. Companies thereby accelerate the sales process and can achieve a higher order volume.

Why is web-based, CAD-independent layout planning advantageous for large 3D factory layouts?

Large and complex 3D factory layouts quickly overwhelm conventional CAD workstations, as large assemblies and a high number of components cause performance to degrade massively. Even the smallest changes become almost impossible for the user to implement. Lino Hub 3D Layout decouples layout planning from the CAD system and thus enables efficient 3D layout planning for the first time: fast, high-performance, browser-based and independent of the CAD workstation.

How can factory layouts be assembled using drag-and-drop in Lino Hub 3D Layout?

Every layout component is available as a digital twin in a 3D model library. Users drag and drop the components into the view and combine them into system assemblies and complete factory layouts. Intuitive buttons control the SolidWorks toolbar directly via the API. This allows components to be flexibly configured and precisely positioned while they are being placed.

What is Lino Hub 3D Layout and who is the module designed for?

Lino Hub 3D Layout is the layout planning module of the Lino Hub integration platform. It enables high-performance planning and flexible, dynamic configuration of large factory and plant layouts directly in the web browser. The application is aimed primarily at sales and project engineers who want to create and visualize layouts without a CAD system. Changes are reflected immediately in the 3D view.
