Software for Sales Engineering leaders

Make Technical Wins more predictable.

ApexIQ WinCommand™ (opens in a new tab) shows which technical deals are backed by evidence and which are only claimed.

Your team qualifies, proves, and reviews every live deal the same way, using ApexIQ™, the method behind it.

Also for CROs, Revenue Operations leaders, and Sales Engineers working complex technical deals.

ApexIQ | Operating Model
  1. Qualify

    Decide where disciplined technical effort belongs.

  2. Validate

    Align proof to buyer criteria and evidence.

  3. Win

    Know what is blocking each deal, and who owns it.

  4. Transfer

    Carry the right context cleanly into delivery.

In your words

If one of these is yours, start here.

Head or VP of Sales Engineering

"I can see pipeline in CRM. I can't see whether my team is actually in control of the technical work behind it."

You see live technical deals, blockers, deal scores, and bid qualification in one WinCommand workspace.

Sales Engineer / SE Manager

"I need a place to run the technical side of the deal without inventing the process every time."

You run the technical side of every deal the same way, with status, actions, blockers, evidence, and qualification in one place.

CRO / VP Sales

"We keep calling deals advanced, but the technical evidence doesn't support the forecast."

You check whether deal confidence is backed by proof, stakeholder alignment, and controlled technical execution.

RevOps

"Don't give me another messy tool that creates data debt."

You get one clean technical record beside your CRM, which stays the system of record. WinCommand runs alongside your existing tools, not instead of them.

Inside WinCommand

Look at the product before you speak to anyone.

Three modules, three dashboards. The free trial runs WinEdge and WinScore on your live deals. WinIndex, and the forecast and report views your leaders read, come with a paid plan.

Maturity assessment

ApexIQ WinIndex™

Where your Sales Engineering operation stands, and which gap to close first.

Active deal execution

ApexIQ WinEdge™

Every live deal against one standard. Account, owner, stage, value, close date, score, and a readiness flag for the next gate.

Bid and deal health scoring

ApexIQ WinScore™

Eight MEDDPICC dimensions scored on evidence. Bid decisions and deal reviews read the same way across every team.

Commercial problem

Your technical sale is leaking value

Complex technical deals often break for reasons beyond product capability: discovery is inconsistent, proof drifts from decision criteria, technical risks surface too late, and handoffs lose control when it matters most.

01

Discovery varies

Execution changes by rep, region, and SE, so quality is uneven before the deal even reaches proof.

02

Proof expands

Demos and PoCs absorb effort well beyond what the buyer needs to make a confident decision.

03

Risk appears late

Security, technical, and stakeholder blockers emerge when the cost of recovery is highest.

04

Reviews run on opinion

Nobody has an agreed standard to review a deal against, so the most confident voice wins.

Technical Win
A Technical Win means the customer's technical stakeholders have enough validated evidence to move forward with confidence.

In complex technology deals, buyers need more than a pitch. They need technical proof that the solution will work, fit their environment, reduce risk, and support the business case. Sales Engineering creates that proof.

In practice it comes down to three things. The customer believes the solution will work. They see why it matters economically. Stakeholders feel safe enough to back it.

Point of view

Sales Engineering is not support. It is a revenue discipline.

Repeatable outcomes. Less heroics. Better control.

Revenue disciplines do not scale on talent alone. They scale on standards, operating rhythm, and visible execution.

Pricing

One annual price for your whole team.

Flat tenant pricing in GBP, published in full on the ApexIQ WinCommand pricing page. Five plans, Trial through Enterprise. No per-seat arithmetic and no quote-only page. Subscriptions are annual.

Start the free trial if you would rather see it working first.

Transparent credibility

A named author, and a method you read before you buy.

Apex Edge Sales Engineering was founded by Seán Livingstone, who sets out the method in two published books and in ApexIQ, the Sales Engineering Operating System.

The author

A named founder

Seán Livingstone has spent more than two decades building and leading enterprise Sales Engineering teams across EMEA and APJ.

The books

Two published books

Sales Engineering Done Properly and No Heroics: Sales Engineering Leadership set out the method behind ApexIQ.

The method

A method you check for yourself

ApexIQ turns the method into stages, gates, and required artefacts, and ApexIQ WinCommand runs it on your live deals.

Where outcomes are discussed, they are directional rather than guaranteed. They depend on starting maturity, implementation quality, deal mix, and adoption discipline.

What buyers often ask

Questions that usually come up early

What Sales Engineering and revenue leaders ask before they decide whether this fits their team.

Trial and plans

What does the trial cost, and what happens after it?

Nothing, and no card is needed. Your team runs WinEdge and WinScore on live deals for 90 days, and the trial never turns into a paid plan on its own. Plans are annual and priced flat for the whole Sales Engineering team.

Maturity assessment

Is WinIndex included in the trial?

WinIndex is the maturity assessment and sits in Team plans and above. The trial covers WinEdge and WinScore on your live deals.

Qualification

We already use MEDDPICC.

Good. Keep MEDDPICC as the qualification language. ApexIQ turns qualification, proof, and technical risk into work your team runs on every deal.

Efficiency

This sounds like process overhead.

The aim is not more process. It is less wasted effort, less drift, and earlier visibility on execution risk.

Capacity

Our issue is capacity, not method.

Capacity problems are often execution problems in disguise. Inspect execution before assuming headcount is the answer. Better control may expose avoidable effort, weak pursuit choices, or inconsistent working practices.

Embedding

We already know the gaps.

Knowing the gaps is not the same as embedding a working operating rhythm that holds up in live deals.

Start with your own deals

The trial runs for 90 days and needs no card. The deal score needs no sign-up, and nothing you enter is stored.
