Easy to learn because it has quite a lot of documentation
Depending on your business scenarios, you can use it, but the initial knowledge of Java scripts, API integrations, and data management. The tool is not a complex platform if you know about the aforementioned areas. Adobe Campaign has features for creating templates, importing templates, and creating various workflows. We used these features to launch the emails, and everything else features. In our company, we integrated Adobe Campaign with Tealium Customer Data Hub. Tealium Customer Data Hub was useful for sending some information to Adobe Campaign for various email campaigns. Whatever data we received in Adobe Campaign was sent back to the Tealium Customer Data Hub for further segmentation. Adobe Campaign can be integrated with other various platforms as well. I think the tool is easy to learn because Adobe has quite a lot of documentation, which includes a broad range of documentation along with various training portals and training materials. The tool is not that complex. From the functionality perspective, it is a very good tool. The tool's UI seems a bit slow, and since it needs enhancement, I rate it a nine out of ten.

Excellent user experience with ease of use and reliable technical support
When SAP CRM does the maintenance, it can take a long time, which can impact business continuity because we have to wait for the maintenance team to finish their work. Maybe if SAP could establish how you can access the tool using a cloud-based environment that would be virtualization, that would be better.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"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."
"Analytics was a good part of Adobe Campaign."
"The solution's contract management and product hierarchy features of SAP CRM are the most beneficial for our business operations."
"The user interface is excellent."
"We get very good support from SAP."
"It was comfortable setting up the tool."
"One of the main things is that the reports are very customizable. It is very easy and user-friendly to customize the reports the way the user wants. They can see the reports as per their expectations and change them accordingly."
"The stability is good."
"SAP CRM is very fast, providing accurate information and good results."
"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."
 

Cons

"The problems we faced with Adobe Campaigns in my company stemmed from the fact that it was very complex software."
"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."
"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."
"The solution is slow."
"The interface could be improved."
"Content management is one area where SAP CRM could use some work because we were seeking a CRM solution that could store BLOB data, like PDF and email data, which takes up a lot of space in the database. Recently, we migrated to a content server, but it would be nice if CRM had built-in BLOB data management because BLOB data is a challenge we've been dealing with since last year."
"The navigation must be improved."
"It was not very stable. It was not a network problem because we were using tools that were not SAP. They were working well. But when I'm running the SAP, it's not working for us."
"The B2C features of SAP are strong, but they are not very known to the public and companies. They must make it more known for B2C applications or B2C use cases."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It will be a bit expensive because it is an Adobe product."
"The solution is cheaper than Salesforce. It is useful for small banks that want to trigger emails."
"There is a license required to use SAP CRM."
"The pricing from SAP is good but it takes time to realize the investment."
"The licensing model for SAP CRM is customer-based."
"SAP CRM costs approximately a couple of thousand a month."
"There is a license required for the solution and most of my clients purchase an annual license."
"The product is costly."
"SAP CRM is not suitable for smaller businesses because it is expensive. The larger businesses would be able to handle the cost."
"They should reduce the price to target small businesses."
