Tacton vs Salsita

We design the entire UI and UX in collaboration with your team, so the configurator looks, feels, and flows exactly how you need it to.

UI is based on predefined templates with limited flexibility to match specific brand or UX requirements.

Supports advanced parametric models with real-time updates to dimensions, shapes, and constraints directly in the 3D view.

Real-time parametric 3D modeling is not supported. Parameters can be entered, but they don't dynamically adjust the 3D model during configuration.

Shows how product components move (sliding doors or rotating slats) so users clearly understand how the product works.

No support for component animations. 3D models are static and do not demonstrate movement.

We implement all product logic for you including advanced rules, constraints, and dependencies. No coding needed on your side.

Powerful rule engine, but requires using the Tacton platform to model and maintain the logic – requires a steep learning curve.

Built to handle modular products with components that can be added, repositioned, and resized in real time. Including drag-and-drop and nested structures.

Supports modular configuration through rules, but users cannot directly interact with the 3D model to modify components.

Salsita delivers a fully custom configurator in 10–12 weeks using a phased, agile approach. Our team handles everything: UI, logic, and integrations.

Enterprise rollouts are scoped as a long-running programme, typically requiring coordination with internal teams or system integrators to build and configure it.

First to market with an advanced AI design assistant that recommends, helps, and configures in real time using natural language.

Does not offer a conversational AI or AI-powered interface in any form.

Fully custom integrations with any ERP, CRM, PIM, or eCommerce platform.

Extensive library of pre-built adapters (SAP, Salesforce, Dynamics, common PLM/CAD). Custom systems can be linked, but often via middleware or partner services.

Flexible export to CAD formats like STEP, DXF, or OBJ – adapted to your specific manufacturing or design workflow.

CAD Automation add-on regenerates full SOLIDWORKS/Creo/Inventor models and drawings after configuration; delivers standard CAD formats once the add-on is licensed and set up.
