Featured Reviews

Omair Bokhari - PeerSpot reviewer
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.
GodfreyNoel - PeerSpot reviewer
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 solution is scalable."
"It has a wide variety of use cases."
"The most valuable features of the solution I like are its stability and customization."
"Oracle CRM is a versatile solution with many features and functionalities that makes it a suitable solution for many different business use cases."
"Everything related to insights and dashboards is valuable. It is great for tracking all the effort and generating reports."
"Case management, incident management, and request management features are valuable."
"The product is straightforward to set up. There's no difficulty."
"The solution is smooth, easy to use, easy to customize and it has many features. Plus, there are regular updates."
"When we are using SAP CRM we receive more accurate results than using any other CRM system."
"Compared to other systems, SAP CRM has been reliable, stable, and cost-effective for us."
"The solution is highly scalable."
"The solution is stable."
"SAP CRM is a scalable solution."
"SAP CRM integrates well with SAP ERP which is useful."
"The most valuable feature is real-time data. You don't have to go to the finance team for information. On one screen, you can see if stock is available and check the customer's outstanding balance, and then you can process the order. SAP CRM's integration with other applications is easier."
"We use SAP CRM for customer service improvement. The main idea is to make sure our team has the right information when talking to customers. This helps them process things like price approvals for quotes faster. The goal is to make the product more efficient, and faster, and, in the end, provide better customer service."
 

Cons

"The cost can be a bit more expensive compared to other options."
"The one thing that I hate about it is when you pay for services for a certain amount of time, the service ends just before it should be over. For example, I may pay for a month of service, but it will tell me the service is over before the month ends."
"The licensing is expensive."
"Oracle CRM should have more integration with different platforms."
"The user interface could be better. It's currently running on an older Java UI format, which could be upgraded to Fiori."
"Customization is an area in the solution that takes too much time. So, it needs to be improved."
"This solution is only available on-premises. It could be improved by offering a cloud/SaaS option which is more scalable."
"Their support could be faster. Like any other solution provider, in some cases, it takes time to get their response, and sometimes, they do not fix the issue in the first round. Therefore, we have to go through another round."
"The product is very expensive."
"They could improve the product's analytics and reporting capabilities. Additionally, they could enhance its web interface speed."
"The solution is slow."
"They should improve the design to make it more appealing to users."
"In the future, machine learning and artificial intelligence functionality need to be included."
"We would like the coding system within this solution to be more straightforward when carrying out general entry tasks."
"There could be some specific configurable options on the UI level to improve visibility."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"The cost of a license with support is slightly higher than a regular license."
"The tool's pricing involves a monthly subscription fee based on the number of users. I believe it's around $20 per user initially, and then an additional five dollars per user if more users are added."
"The solution is expensive."
"The product's pricing is manageable and flexible."
"The licensing is on a yearly basis."
"It is not cheap. It is more suitable for big companies."
"There are licenses needed to use this solution and they are managed by our product team."
"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."
"There is a license required to use SAP CRM."
"Every user needs to have a license."
"The product is costly."
"SAP CRM is an expensive product."
"The company has seen an increase in revenue."
"The licensing model for SAP CRM is customer-based."
"SAP CRM costs approximately a couple of thousand a month."
