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.

End-to-end solution to manage customer support tickets and consolidate all communication channels into one platform
For me, the valuable features are related to customer engagement because I want to ensure I don't miss any customer inquiries, no matter the channel. For example, I haven't seen any other platform that consolidates all channels into one console. That's a valuable feature to me. Then there's the pricing, which is better than Zendesk. Zendesk charges in USD per user, per month, whereas Zoho let us pay in Naira (Nigerian currency). Zoho can also identify user locations, letting you leverage existing reviews. These are valuable features that many organizations have adopted Zoho Desk for. We can download the mobile app to see requests and respond from anywhere. It is one of the most improved applications and widely integrated systems I've worked with. You can virtually integrate it with almost anything, like Microsoft Teams and other data applications. The marketplace lets you find native integrations. For example, we have an organization that uses multiple systems and wants to ensure agents don't log in to multiple platforms to see emails. They have a native integration system that takes care of that and works seamlessly.
