Configuration challenge:
How to build a Tesla S product configurator in less than 2 hours?
Simple. With SaleSqueze configuration platform.
Our vision since the very beginning of the SaleSqueze has always been the same – allow companies to create and deploy stunning product configurators in a matter of minutes.
In line with our vision, we are developing a configuration platform that allows building configurators very quickly. Configurators in configuration platform are easy to maintain, unlike custom configurators, where each change takes months of time and a fortune.
It easily recreates any experience that is well-known, performs well, and is already heavily used by buyers globally.
There is no better example like Tesla, so we decided to recreate the well-know Tesla configurator for Model S.
It took us exactly 1 hour and 47 minutes to create the configurator.
You are impressed, right?
We followed 5 steps to build Tesla Model S configurator with SaleSqueze configuration platform:
The first step is to convert the product’s multilevel BOM into a configuration model. Once completed, we just connected the BOM components to the article catalog through the configuration engine and voilà… the foundation is laid.
Configuration model defines the parameters for article catalog. Once enriched with additional parameters, it can be imported to serve as the base for configurator options.
Once the configuration model is complete and the article catalog is imported, it’s time to test the configuration and verify the multilevel BOM output is valid.
Rearrange the configuration model components in the layout editor, add steps and finalize the look & feel.
When finished those 4 steps, the configurator is ready for customers to use.
The final product looks 90% like the original, but it didn’t take us years to build it, but only 1 hour and 47 minutes.
Configurators are all about the experience. Don’t just look the Model S configurator on video. Experience it yourself.
Let the experience speak for itself.
Get access to the live Tesla Model S configurator.
Configurators like Tesla‘s are usually built to impress the customers and offer them the ultimate experience when researching, configuring and ordering the product from the comfort of their home.
When customers configure their product, for example Model S, they already provide all the necessary information about color, wheels, interior and other features.
This information is essential for sales team to prepare a quote or order and send BOM in the production.
So if the configurators are used in the right way, they have so many benefits for the Sales teams as they can:
Sell complex products easier, faster and 10x more efficient
with the SaleSqueze Configuration Platform for manufacturers.
