Helps business track their customers, sales leads, and opportunities
An area for improvement is the vendors' inability to understand the customers' requirements and communicate them to Oracle. When we started to implement the tool, and during the very initial phases of the product, when Oracle launched it, our company opted for it. We faced a few challenges related to the product speed associated with some functionalities that were not available when the tool was just launched, but later on, it became available, and right now, we are actually using it. The tool is fulfilling our requirements. There were no major hiccups or challenges due to the tool. The solution's mobile app needs to be enriched with more functionalities in the future.

Integration enhances efficiency with good ERP Fusion Console that helps with centralization
When it comes to ERP Cloud, performance has always been an issue, especially when calling an API or a VIP publisher. I experience timeouts, which Oracle needs to improve. There have been many service requests around this, particularly last year. Although progress has been made, performance is still a concern for me. When dealing with bulk data uploads via a BDI process, some records occasionally fail, requiring me to debug and reprocess them. Enhanced performance is something that I would be interested in.

Customizable and flexible but user experience needs enhancement
Siebel is not user-friendly. There are so many tabs and different features that until it's explained to someone, they will not understand it. A user-friendly tool is supposed to be designed in a way where the user can log in and intuitively understand how to use it. People who use it regularly are still confused, and it requires a lot of clicks and is very difficult to navigate. Sometimes it takes a lot of time to reflect the correct information—even when it's updated, you have to refresh it again and again to see the right data.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It has a wide variety of use cases."
"The most valuable feature of Oracle CRM is the organization it provides."
"The solution is scalable."
"It is one of the most proficient CRM tools out there. It is comprehensive and scalable. It covers most of the CRM activities, business lines, and business requirements."
"The forecasting reporting section was the most useful."
"It is very simple."
"We are able to take back control of our client sales information and analyze it for the future to improve."
"Oracle CRM accommodates client needs, potentially reducing licensing costs with a pay-as-you-go approach. It also allows for the standardization of processes and reporting, which is important for our organization. Additionally, integration through APIs improves connectivity."
"Everything is managed by Oracle, so they have security in place."
"Oracle's strength lies in swiftly building and deploying enterprise applications globally."
"Oracle Service Cloud could improve the integration for older platforms."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is that customers can easily understand it."
"I find the ERP Fusion Console valuable since it centralizes all the modules like order management."
"There is also a focus on maintaining efficiency, and it is a significant time saver."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is that a company can maintain all of its HR data without any issues."
"Oracle offers a wide range of applications, each capable of delivering significant value to our business."
"Siebel offers a high level of customization which has been valuable. The solution also offers the ability to model complex products."
"Siebel is easy to configure and comes with various pre-built industry verticals, so it doesn't require much effort. If you want to roll out Siebel in telecom or manufacturing, they have the verticals."
"Due to the many features that are built in from a CRM perspective, it is the best product we have."
"The solution is scalable."
"Siebel CRM has enhanced customer engagement for our organization, particularly through its robust data model and flexible features. One specific scenario where Siebel CRM excelled was in addressing complex client requirements. For instance, we successfully implemented a module for email responses, a feature that was not readily available or as robust as other CRM tools. Additionally, Siebel's open UI module allowed us to customize the user interface for one of our clients completely. This customization proved to be a major selling point for our company."
"Siebel CRM is the number one CRM product in the world."
"The best thing about the tool is its data model. The underlying data model refers to how the data is stored in databases. We can also experience the ease of developing anything with the tool. We can customize any functionality as per any business challenge."
"The solution's order management pack is quite fantastic."
 

Cons

"I would like to remove all manual work and get the benefits of the function that Oracle provides without any manual interference or paperwork."
"The licensing is expensive."
"In the planning area in order to calculate commissions the function could be improved. Currently, we are not using that functionality because it is very basic."
"The initial setup is complex, it could be improved to be more simplified."
"The performance could be better."
"A specialized team is required for managing Oracle, which is extra overhead for the customer."
"The configuration requires a lot of technical intervention."
"Improvements could be made in automating certain tasks, such as automatically notifying me via email when a customer has signed off on a proposal. Some of these features require payment, but including them in the basic package for smaller companies would be beneficial."
"The vendor must provide a user-friendly mobile application."
"I would like to see more AI usage, enhanced personalization capabilities, and simpler integration capabilities."
"Some features that require improvement include the location functionality and certain aspects of the CRM."
"We built some custom code to make a few functions easier. Oracle needs to look at what the customers do and integrate them into the product."
"When it comes to ERP Cloud, performance has always been an issue, especially when calling an API or a VIP publisher. I experience timeouts, which Oracle needs to improve."
"The solution’s reporting could be improved."
"Delivering the solution to clients can be quite complex and requires highly trained technicians with expertise."
"The user experience has to be much better."
"Currently, Siebel CRM is not helping the agent provide faster feedback to the customer."
"The backend performance of Siebel could be improved as it is often slow. In addition, the Open UI is not that responsive."
"However, there are areas that this product has not evolved at par with global industry trends, including the UX/UI and cloud capabilities."
"The user interface, mobile application, and support could be improved."
"The solution itself is very heavy."
"Siebel CRM can improve as an ERP and for a few corporate business workloads."
"Oracle needs to improve its support. The major drawback I've observed with Siebel CRM is that Oracle hasn't taken appropriate steps to improve it since 2019. We noticed a steep downfall because Oracle was slow to roll out upgrades like Open UI. By the time these upgrades were available, the market had shifted to cloud solutions, which competitors were already providing much earlier."
"I want Oracle to improve the tool’s UI with a vanilla application. I would also like to see an insurance broking vertical in their future releases. There are thousands of brokers who look for an insurance broking solution."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Every year, we have new users, and we get new licenses. It depends on various things such as the number of users and expansion of our business lines."
"Compared to alternative solutions Oracle CRM is expensive."
"On a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive, I rate the pricing a twelve. Oracle CRM is on the expensive side."
"We have annual licenses to use this solution that are quite expensive. For example, we have approximately four types of licenses and we have one annual contract for the number of licenses we use for Oracle CRM and the loyalty system."
"There is a license required to use this solution. The price is reasonable for a CRM."
"The pricing for licensing is pretty expensive. If you need one particular feature it becomes expensive to have to continue paying for it."
"It is not cheap. It is more suitable for big companies."
"The costing for this solution is very high. It targets top tier companies. This solution can be split up into multiple modules to cater to the low tier customers."
"The product has average pricing."
"Oracle Fusion Service is more expensive than Workday."
"Oracle's pricing is quite high, and this cost can be a significant barrier, especially for smaller companies."
"This is definitely an expensive product compared to others on the market."
"The tool is reasonably priced."
"There are no extra licenses, everything is included in the subscription, and the price is fixed."
"Licensing fees are on the higher end and I rate them an eight out of ten."
"Oracle Fusion Service is a cheap and flexible solution."
"Its licensing is yearly."
"The price of Siebel CRM depends on the usage of the business requirement. For large enterprises the price it's very good but if you are using it for medium scale enterprises, the price is very expensive."
"I think the tool’s pricing is exaggerated. Once you do the price sizing as per your business needs, you would find that the price of other solutions like Zoho CRM, HubSpot CRM, Salesforce CRM, etc. would be always the same."
"This solution is expensive compared to other solutions in the market. This makes it difficult to convince our customers to use it. The customers who are already using Siebel have thought about moving to Velocity or Salesforce."
"The product is expensive."
