Salesforce CPQ is end-of-sale
You don’t just have one option.You have three.
Salesforce CPQ is end-of-sale — no new innovation, growing admin burden, and an eventual forced migration.
Whether you replace or run beside, here is what each path costs you.

The decision
The decision every Salesforce CPQcustomer faces
Salesforce CPQ isn’t end-of-life — but it is end-of-growth.
- No new features or innovation
- Upgrade traps waiting around the corner
- Admin overhead growing every year
- The question isn’t if you’ll move — it’s how
Your options compared
“Doing nothing isn’t neutral. It’s falling further behind.”
Replace includes Salesforce’s own successor. It does valid configuration and guided selection well and has a real AI core; the cost is the rebuild, and the time is months.
Sidecar
Why CIOs & RevOps leaders choose the sidecar
The sidecar modernizes your quoting without the risk of a full overhaul — Genesis overlays Salesforce CPQ and executes your rules and pricing while everything else keeps working.

FAQs
Common questions about the sidecar transition and how it works.
Do we pay for both CPQs?
During a sidecar transition, yes — you run both Salesforce CPQ and Expedite. If you choose Replace, you eliminate Salesforce CPQ license fees. Either way you keep functionality through the change.
Which system is primary?
Genesis is the rules engine of truth; Salesforce keeps the transaction record of truth — quotes and reports. You get the strengths of both.
Will performance improve?
Genesis executes rules faster, so quoting speeds up. Writeback still depends on Salesforce, but the rules and configuration work happens in Genesis.
Are we stuck forever?
No. The sidecar is a transitional model — you can cut fully over to Replace whenever you’re ready, at your pace.
