Tacton Named a Leader in the 2026 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for CPQ Applications for the Fourth Consecutive Year

Positioned Highest in Both Completeness of Vision and Ability to Execute

STOCKHOLM & CHICAGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Tacton, a global leader in Configure, Price, Quote (CPQ) solutions for manufacturers of complex, configurable products, today announced that it has been named a Leader in the 2026 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for CPQ Applications.

This marks the fourth consecutive year Tacton has been recognized as a Leader in the report. Among the 16 vendors evaluated, Tacton placed highest in the quadrant on Completeness of Vision and for the second consecutive year is positioned highest in Ability to Execute.

Tacton CPQ is designed to support manufacturers selling highly configurable products by helping them:

  • Ensure accurate configuration so every quote reflects valid options and constraints
  • Quote faster with confidence across high-variance portfolios without relying on manual engineering checks
  • Maintain pricing and margin control through consistent configuration and pricing logic

This approach supports manufacturers as they manage complexity while meeting buyer expectations for speed and accuracy.

“We believe this recognition reflects Tacton’s continued investment in innovation and our long-term commitment to the complex manufacturing market,” said Klaus Andersen, CEO of Tacton. “By advancing our product roadmap and making strategic acquisitions, we are strengthening how manufacturers connect buyer engagement with engineering and execution. That connected approach enables the digital thread manufacturers need to deliver clarity, speed, and confidence across the entire lifecycle.”

Tacton delivers the Buyer-Centric Smart Factory through a connected suite that brings together CPQ, Configuration Lifecycle Management (CLM), and Configured Order Fulfillment (COF).

Tacton CPQ serves as the buyer-facing engine, with CLM and COF extending configuration accuracy into engineering and order fulfillment. Together, they connect sales, engineering, and production through a single source of truth, helping manufacturers sell, build, and deliver with confidence in highly complex, high-variance environments.
