The CPQ Recovery Lounge @ Novela
662 Mission Street, San Francisco
Looking for CPQ events at Dreamforce 2026? The CPQ Recovery Lounge is a three-day CPQ-focused Dreamforce side event hosted by Zaelab and ServiceNow at Novela in San Francisco, September 14–16, 2026.
We built the CPQ Recovery Lounge so RevOps leaders could come, unwind, and have a conversation about what matters: your broken quoting processes and how to create a modern Customer-to-Cash experience without ripping and replacing your entire stack.
Join Salesforce CPQ customers, Revenue Operations leaders, Sales Operations executives, and technology leaders for conversations about Salesforce CPQ migration, Revenue Cloud Advanced, ServiceNow CPQ, CPQ modernization, and Quote-to-Cash.

We are mixing business with pleasure. Enjoy drinks, appetizers, and gain clarity before Dreamfest kicks into overdrive. Strong tea and stronger spirits :)
Your quoting process is dated. Your sales team is frustrated with configuring quotes. Your customers are frustrated waiting for them.
