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

"Initially, Bitrix24 improved the way we operate because we were not previously using a CRM. Before Bitrix24, we tracked everything through Outlook. Now, we have a tool that will automatically put out reports for us."
"We use many of this solution's features for communication and for process automation. It offers more functionality than a regular CRM."
"It is a very scalable solution...The tool currently operates efficiently and contributes to our ongoing digitization efforts, including documentation and workflows."
"I believe that having one system that handles all of the functions that we need in a business, such as marketing, sales, pipeline management, project management, meetings, customer contact, customer feedback, social media integrations, and connections to our cloud data storage, Google, and Microsoft, is a good idea."
"Bitrix24's workflow is better than that of others. The user interface is also good."
"The data interpretation feature in Bitrix24 is good."
"The data entry functionality is excellent, and the pipeline views and filters are highly useful."
"The technical support was intuitive and had good documentation."
"From the bank perspective, it's user-friendly and simple to develop something specific for a certain customer. It allows customization for individual customers rather than applying a one-size-fits-all approach."
"Once the lead is matured, you can convert it into an opportunity and you can track it by the opportunity based on the product segment."
"I have found the most valuable feature of the SAP CRM system is its ability to integrate with other modules. SAP CRM is all about integrating with other modules. For example, SuccessFactors is their learning management. This is one use case that SAP CRM themselves use. Their lead generation versus their sales from their educational services. You can instantly receive insight into how many leads have been generated and how much it turned into real business or revenue for them. I was told in one of the seminars that the data transfer from the lead generation to sales is only 24 hours in SAP CRM."
"SAP CRM has a good performance."
"The features that are used most are the lead model and the opportunity model. We can create many different pipelines with many phases. These features improved our process in the States very well."
"It was comfortable setting up the tool."
"SAP CRM integrates well with SAP ERP which is useful."
"The solution is highly scalable."
 

Cons

"The stability could be improved."
"In our organization, we feel that the UI and the functionalities for workflows in the solution need a lot of improvement."
"The solution's open channel and contact center could be improved."
"I would like to see improvements with Bitrix24's marketing automation."
"There is a need for better integration with ERP solutions."
"The solution’s performance could be made faster."
"In my opinion, everything needs improvement. It all starts with the user experience. It's extremely difficult to use, it's always lagging, It doesn't look particularly appealing, in terms of how it looks, and it is extremely difficult to locate the stages."
"We need full ERP integration to take all our processes in one platform."
"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."
"What I see as a challenge against our competitor is that Salesforce comes with more flexibility, for enhancement purposes, whereas the SAP CRM Cloud is more robust and rigid. It's not flexible to implement any bespoke solution."
"When features do get added, we would like the product to notify us in a timely way."
"The product's pricing could be better."
"It can be a bit more user friendly, to be honest. Sometimes there are too many apps options. It should offer better UX (user experience) to make it easier to navigate and easier to use."
"There could be some specific configurable options on the UI level to improve visibility."
"The navigation must be improved."
"In the future, machine learning and artificial intelligence functionality need to be included."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product's pricing is okay for me. It is not expensive."
"Bitrix24 is a cheap tool. I think our costs are somewhere between $1,000 and $5,000 per month. There are no additional costs with it. We did put in some hours to clean up some project-related stuff in it, but it was not much."
"The pricing for this program is reasonable."
"Bitrix24 offers an open-source option for small companies, but you can order a bigger range of services on a monthly or yearly contract."
"On a scale from one to ten, where one is expensive and ten is cheap, I rate the solution's pricing a seven or eight out of ten."
"Price-wise, it is a very cheap solution."
"The solution's pricing is quite average and not expensive."
"Licenses are cheap compared to other solutions."
"SAP CRM is an expensive solution and is the most challenging aspect of the solution."
"SAP CRM offers a free trial for anyone wanting to test the product before purchasing it."
"The licensing model for SAP CRM is customer-based."
"Its price is reasonable. As compared to other CRMs, this CRM is competitively priced. They have multiple flavors with different sets of functionality. Pricing is based on the flavor that suits your requirement. If you have more users, the cost will come down."
"SAP CRM costs approximately a couple of thousand a month."
"SAP CRM is not suitable for smaller businesses because it is expensive. The larger businesses would be able to handle the cost."
"There is a license required for the solution and most of my clients purchase an annual license."
"They should reduce the price to target small businesses."
