Concert Software and Business Services is a service provider selling an online product configurators and product information management solution. Rather than selling its solution as a piece of packaged software to be licensed and installed by a customer, Concert differentiates itself by providing its solution as an on-demand service. Customers can create an account, build configurators and maintain product information, and use that information to sell their products online or through industry or customer specific electronic sales channels. Concert's customers need only pay for their actual usage, based on the number of users they have maintaining product configurators or product information, and on the number of monthly gigabytes of traffic which the customer places on the concert servers.
The concert solution is multi-lingual and mult-currency capable, and is for sale in Europe and the United States.
Concert's solution may be interesting for product managers would like to promote thier products through online or electronic sales channels, but who do not have the resources, infrastructure, or desire to build and maintain their own technical solution. Concert claims to be able to bring a set of product configurators and product information up and onto the internet within a few days.
Headquartered in Erlangen, Germany, with offices in Chicago, USA, Concert originated within Siemens AG, as part of its E-Business strategy. Concert remains a Siemens subsidiary company.
