We performed a comparison between Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) and Salesforce Platform based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two PaaS Clouds solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Oracle Cloud Infrastructure is about as stable as the other CSPs, but Oracle Cloud is more common in Korea."
"The main benefit is that you're getting all of the resources you require on a subscription base. So, you get to pay as you go instead of having to have a CAPEX, you convert your CAPEX to OPEX to cover the data center cost."
"They seem to be more readily integrating with Azure, which is great."
"In terms of features, upgradeability to the latest version of Oracle suites has been a good feature. All we have to do is just patching or an upgrade, it's pretty easy. Then, it gets regularly updated. That's what I like about it."
"The technical support is good, they have been responsive and helpful."
"Oracle does well when it comes to data privacy and security, which are critical."
"The product's configuration is simple."
"I like that the program is flexible. I can use it to write Java scripts. I also like the website, because it constantly updates me on things, like artificial intelligence, and the latest technology. I read the articles, on the latest technology that programmers can use."
"Its stability, performance, and usability are most valuable."
"A fully integrated solution that provides a seamless experience."
"It's an easy platform for salespeople to quickly and efficiently be able to track an opportunity."
"Salesforce is the best one out there."
"There is very good documentation available and Salesforce offers good communication with its clients. It's very user-friendly and has a system that is easy to learn."
"The standard sales and marketing tools that Salesforce provides on the platform are the most valuable."
"It is very user-friendly, and intuitive, it will lead you and take you to the next steps."
"The solution is used to track our customers."
"I think that there could be a more user-friendly environment when it comes to the options that Oracle presents through the Oracle Cloud Platform."
"The technical support is really bad, because their reaction time is extremely slow."
"The initial setup can be made easier and the technical support team should give faster responses. Oracle can introduce the VPN service that can be directly connected to the machine and perform work directly on the server. This feature can help users."
"There's one app I have to install on my device, the Articulate Player app. It's only available on Apple and Android, but it's not available for Windows. I can't run the program on my desktop, to use it to learn Java."
"The product could use some more development and maturity so it has more peripheral functionality already integrated."
"The pricing model of Oracle Cloud Platform is an area of concern. Oracle Cloud Platform should be made available at a cheap price."
"I work with many clouds and I would say, in comparison, others have a better presentation of services and they have clearer steps in terms of implementation."
"The solution needs improvement in support, performance, and features."
"They should provide access to data quality tips and tricks to make it better."
"The interface could be more user-friendly and offer more customization."
"They need an easy way of getting details and then adding to it and then being able to do it in a more simplified way"
"It could have a lot more customization options in terms of fonts and reports. There should be an even lighter version with just two or three fields. It could be a bit more light if the field guys want to use it on a mobile phone on the road. For deploying it for CRM, maybe we can have our customer database, project funnels, and projects to help us in managing our supply chain business."
"Salesforce Platform is a bit expensive compared to other CRM products, which is a drawback."
"Pricing is the biggest factor. The cost right now is too high and I've had a lot of clients leave."
"It is quite expensive. It has gotten to that point where it is a lot more pricey. It has kind of got its own proprietary language for development. It is probably never going to change, but if it had a more market language for development, it would be easier to find developers. They come at a premium cost, so it is expensive."
"It may be slow, but that is relative. When compared to Siebel CRM, which was large, clunky, and extremely slow, Salesforce seemed fast to me."
