Understanding the cost of a customized industrial computing solution is a crucial step in the sales process. At Acura Embedded Systems, we strive to make this as transparent and straightforward as possible for our customers and our sales team. 

While our products are highly customizable, we provide a user-friendly online tool that allows you to quickly select product types and specifications to get an estimated final value for your desired computer.

1. The Importance of Transparent Pricing

Quick Quoting: Rapidly generate preliminary quotes for customers.

Budgeting: Assist customers in understanding potential costs for their projects.

Configuration Exploration: Allow users to explore various product configurations and see how different specifications impact the price, helping them find the optimal solution for their budget and needs.

Efficiency: Streamline the initial pricing inquiry process, saving time for both the customer and the sales team.

Choose Your Specifications:

Once you select a product type, the tool will dynamically present a series of options specific to that product. These options allow you to tailor the computer to your exact requirements.

Processor (CPU): You'll be able to select the "brain" of your computer. For example, you might choose between different Intel Core i5, i7, or even the powerful Ultra 7 165H processors, depending on the product model.

Memory (RAM): Select the amount of short-term memory needed. Options might include 16GB, 32GB, or 64GB of DDR4 or DDR5 RAM.

Storage (SSD): Choose the long-term memory capacity, such as 512GB, 1TB, or up to 4TB SSD, with options for NVMe or RAID configurations.

Operating System: Select your preferred OS, like Windows 11 IoT or Linux.

Connectivity Options: For some products, you might be able to select specific wireless modules (e.g., LTE, WiFi, GPS) or the number of PoE ports.

Display Specifications (for Panel PCs/Monitors): If you're configuring a Panel PC or a monitor, you might select screen size, brightness (NITS), or touchscreen type.

Other Customizations: Depending on the product, there may be options for specific certifications, mounting types, or other unique features.

View Your Estimated Price:

As you make your selections, the tool will automatically calculate and display the estimated final price for your configured computer. This allows for real-time cost assessment as you adjust specifications.

3. Benefits for Customers and Sales Team

This online pricing tool is a valuable asset for both potential customers and our Inside Sales team:

Empowered Customers: Customers can independently explore options and get immediate cost estimates, accelerating their decision-making process.

Streamlined Sales: For the Inside Sales team, it provides a quick way to respond to initial pricing inquiries, allowing them to focus on understanding deeper customer needs and providing tailored solutions rather than spending time on basic quote generation.

Transparency: It offers clear visibility into how different specifications impact the overall cost, fostering trust and informed decisions.

Efficiency: Reduces the back-and-forth typically associated with custom quotes, speeding up the sales cycle.

While the tool provides an excellent estimated value, for final quotes, complex custom integrations, or large volume orders, our sales team remains available to provide personalized assistance and detailed proposals.
