Though it is good for the analytics part, it needs to be made less complex for users
The problems we faced with Adobe Campaigns in my company stemmed from the fact that it was very complex software. In my company, it did not allow us to expose APIs to do the stuff we require in our company. The aforementioned area can be considered for improvement in the product.
Shreyas  K M S - PeerSpot reviewer
It integrates well with our existing solutions, so we can analyze the data for analytics, forecasting and modeling
Setting up SAP CRM is straightforward. I rate it eight out of 10 for ease of setup. SAP provides all the tools and techniques were available from the vendor. However, the integration portion is a lot of work and requires some functional consultants. It takes some effort to customize the program and rewrite it to align with our business standards, but the initial implementation is straightforward. We didn't face any challenges here. Total deployment for this project took around eight or nine months, including development, testing, and validation. After deployment, the administration is fairly simple. We have to take care of the licensing part and forecast data growth for the next three or four months. We have the tools and people available for operations as well as vendor support. If we have complex issues, we can raise a ticket to the vendor and get it sorted.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Analytics was a good part of Adobe Campaign."
"The tool helps store and manage our data. I don't need to be a pro in SQL, but I can still run queries and get the exact data I want. Some workflows help me get data from any table and send it to any platform without expert SQL knowledge. I can still export complicated data anywhere."
"It is a stable solution."
"Compared to other systems, SAP CRM has been reliable, stable, and cost-effective for us."
"What I found most valuable in SAP CRM is its multitenancy, and you can use it from your website, SMS, and even social media, and it's all integrated, so my company is trying to leverage on all of those."
"The most valuable feature is real-time data. You don't have to go to the finance team for information. On one screen, you can see if stock is available and check the customer's outstanding balance, and then you can process the order. SAP CRM's integration with other applications is easier."
"Its scalability is good."
"SAP CRM integrates well with SAP ERP which is useful."
"Getting the right information at the right time across different programs is important. These programs lack interaction between them. IPA is a good option to bring them together."
"SAP is very easy to use."
"The platform is highly scalable."
 

Cons

"The dashboard is perfect. The UI could be more user-friendly because the buttons are pretty small. Only someone who knows where to find them will easily locate them. New users might have difficulty finding options. Since I've been working with it for a while, I don't have that problem."
"Adobe Campaign needs to improve the UI because it is a bit old. Sometimes, the platform is a bit slow."
"The problems we faced with Adobe Campaigns in my company stemmed from the fact that it was very complex software."
"SAP CRM could improve by making the solution more current, it is out of date. There are no more updates for SAP CRM."
"There is a lot of missing data and data latency issues between the different modules of SAP CRM, which creates a lot of problems."
"They should improve the design to make it more appealing to users."
"The product's pricing could be better."
"The implementation and integrations could be better. After we went into the production environment, we had some issues. Most of them were with the ERP integration. Many other issues were around the client's integrations between the ERP and CRM platforms. It could be more user-friendly. It wasn't very user-friendly initially, but now it's easier for them to use. Now, the users can use that platform better than at the beginning. We would like to see reports with more analytic features and artificial intelligence in the next release. For example, show more metrics and KPIs and more dynamic dashboards. Because the platform has some models, but it's not easy to use. It's a little complex."
"Our users are using it primarily from their laptop browser and very few are using it on their mobile because the mobile is not that user-friendly."
"I think what needs to be improved is the solution for Brazil's organization."
"They have recently updated their user interface but they should continue to improve upon it in the future. Additionally, overall performance or speed of response times could be better."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is cheaper than Salesforce. It is useful for small banks that want to trigger emails."
"It will be a bit expensive because it is an Adobe product."
"SAP CRM offers a free trial for anyone wanting to test the product before purchasing it."
"SAP CRM costs approximately a couple of thousand a month."
"We have to pay a yearly licensing fee for SAP CRM, which is expensive."
"The company has seen an increase in revenue."
"From the maintenance perspective, SAP CRM is quite expensive compared to cloud services because the current solution they're using is managed by us and we are hosting it on servers. There is the cost of hosting, and managing servers and applications. The overhead is substantial, but this solution is a legacy system. It will take some time for the customer to migrate out of it."
