Overview
Pricefx provides a modular SaaS solution for price optimisation management (PO&M) and configure-price-quote (CPQ) aimed at enterprises of any size.

Founded in 2011 and Munich-founded, the company has been expanding its product set and ecosystem, including the May acquisition of French market leader Brennus Analytics to add AI capabilities. Pricefx says demand for SaaS pricing solutions has increased since the pandemic as companies accelerate digital transformation and seek competitiveness in a downturn.
