Abasiakama Bassey - PeerSpot reviewer
A project management tool that offers great scalability and stability
The support provided by Bitrix24 is an area with shortcomings that needs improvement. From an improvement perspective, Bitrix24 should consider providing live and upfront support to its users, especially those who use the solution's free version. If you want someone to get on your platform for which you can't provide support, then it doesn't make that platform any different from its competitors. It would make sense to people if Bitrix24 could provide support for even their free version. It would be good if Bitrix24 added some accounting elements to the tool instead of just providing functionality related to bookkeeping alone since it can help Bitrix24 become a complete tool. During the setup phase of the solution, the tool should provide its users an option to add the accounting part, making it a complete solution.

Good solution for controlling company processes
Our primary use case for SAP is as a principal company system and it's relatively easy to understand our process in the system. It's quite easy to analyze the configuration and make other operations make custom accounts for the application. In my opinion, it's a good experience I don't have a…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The data interpretation feature in Bitrix24 is good."
"We use many of this solution's features for communication and for process automation. It offers more functionality than a regular CRM."
"The solution's most valuable feature is its project management functionality...It is a pretty stable solution."
"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."
"Offers, a free version."
"The product is user-friendly."
"Bitrix24 is ideal for creating a CRM platform. It can integrate some third-party solutions, and it's highly flexible."
"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."
"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."
"Its scalability is good."
"The most important factor for recommending SAP CRM is its integration with the core SAP platform. Globally, most enterprises are using SAP as an ERP platform to manage their key business functions. SAP CRM has out-of-the-box integration with the core SAP platform. You can integrate your pre-sales and post-sales into the single platform on the SAP CRM very easily, and you can extend that CRM to your customers who can actually see what is happening to their orders—such as whether it is dispatched or not dispatched or at what stage it is—simply by logging onto the CRM platform."
"The solution is highly scalable."
"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 CRM integrates well with SAP ERP which is useful."
"The most valuable feature for me is the flexibility to consolidate the products."
"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."
 

Cons

"The support provided by Bitrix24 is an area with shortcomings that needs improvement."
"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 didn't have the ability to customize the solution."
"It would be great if colleagues could get alerts via email when they are assigned something."
"The stability could be improved."
"We need full ERP integration to take all our processes in one platform."
"The client interface is not very user-friendly."
"Bitrix24’s interface needs to be improved."
"I think what needs to be improved is the solution for Brazil's organization."
"SAP must provide a demo system for the customers."
"As SAP CRM is still in its pilot version in my company, and my team is still experimenting on it, there's little room for exploration, but its setup is not as straightforward, so this could be an area for improvement."
"CRM is costlier than its competitors."
"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."
"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."
"When features do get added, we would like the product to notify us in a timely way."
"There is a lot of missing data and data latency issues between the different modules of SAP CRM, which creates a lot of problems."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"Bitrix24 used to be cheaper, but now it's getting expensive."
"We were using the free version which was really limited in terms of functionality."
"Licenses are cheap compared to other solutions."
"The cost is $2,500, which will be spread out over 18 to 24 months."
"I use the free version. I sense that my company will need a license for the solution in a few months to use some features like lead management."
"Price-wise, it is a very cheap solution."
"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."
"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."
"SAP CRM is not suitable for smaller businesses because it is expensive. The larger businesses would be able to handle the cost."
"Every user needs to have a license."
"We have to pay a yearly licensing fee for SAP CRM, which is expensive."
"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."
"The pricing from SAP is good but it takes time to realize the investment."
"SAP CRM is an expensive product."
