Executive SummaryUpdated on Dec 19, 2024

Oracle CRM and Pega CRM compete in the CRM solutions category. Oracle appears to have the upper hand with its comprehensive feature set and greater scalability, while Pega excels in ease of setup and case management, appealing for customer engagement.

Features: Oracle CRM provides extensive integration tools, modular cloud solutions, and a versatile analytics platform, alongside strong customization capabilities. Pega CRM offers powerful case management with pre-built workflows, straightforward updates through its modular approach, and ease of setup, beneficial for both users and customers.

Room for Improvement: Oracle CRM needs more flexible integration options, especially for modern interfaces and mobile functionality, and a reduction in usability challenges and costs. Pega CRM could expand database-level customizations and offer more out-of-the-box adaptors, while revising its high pricing model to be more cost-effective.

Ease of Deployment and Customer Service: Oracle CRM supports on-premises, cloud, and hybrid deployment options but has mixed reviews regarding support reliability. Pega CRM focuses on cloud deployments with straightforward setup and generally well-regarded support, though improvements in engagement times are suggested.

Pricing and ROI: Oracle CRM is priced for larger enterprises, offering significant ROI through operational efficiency but deterred by high licensing costs. Pega CRM’s pricing, also high, varies by client needs, with recognized ROI for enhancing process efficiency, still considered more cost-effective compared to pricier solutions like Salesforce.

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.

Case management feature is valuable but the pricing is expensive

I would like to suggest the solution but it really depends on your specific requirements, your business use cases and future plans. There is a significant investment involved in this solution and therefore it is very crucial to reevaluate your future necessity including automation potential and modernization plans. I would suggest that you select any kind of solution and explore alternatives of similar functionalities at a lower cost. This might help you to achieve more with less. In my experience, I would rate it between seven to eight because it offers robust capabilities. But please be aware that other BPM tools are emerging with similar features at a lower cost. Pega CRM is perceived as bulk care compared to order tools, as many of its capabilities are potentially underutilized. I would rate it 7 out of 10.

"Pega offers a clear parent-child case relationship that's easily created and maintained. Dependencies can be configured, where reaching a specific stage in a parent case automatically triggers a child task in a child case, while the parent case remains on hold until a certain condition is met before moving forward. This configuration allows multiple users to work on cases in parallel. Many of these settings are readily available within Pega case settings. Overall, Pega's case management is unparalleled compared to other options."

"Great flexibility and its locking mechanism enable multiple users to work on the same case seamlessly."

"The UI is lagging and needs to be improved."
