It is relatively easy to centralize your services when using a cloud solution.

Easiness of onboarding new people and markets.

95% of business requirements can be met by making administrative configuration changes rather than development.

This allows you to bring customer satisfaction in short time rather than launching large project each time a new requirement will appear.

Support: My Oracle Support service, enhancement, bug fix roadmap, and planning, quick and modern global cross-search is missing.

We have been using this solution for six years.

There were minor stability issues that were always addressed in the agreed-upon RTO/RPO.

There were no scalability issues, but this is mostly about the architecture and how the system was rolled-out. This is not a reflection on the product itself.

We used many local solutions. We switched in order to centralize and globalize so we could achieve better business satisfaction and save on our budget.

The installation was straightforward. We set up the integration and configuration changes can be easily modified and adjusted.

Depending on the number of users, you can get an incredibly good offer compared to other products.

The product has very good quality to price, has a stable and powerful configuration, and allows your business to fulfill the required processes.

I use the solution to document customers’ data.

We can filter and find any data. It's very easy to find any customer-related data.

Usually, the product is slow. It takes time when we request data. We never get the data in a second or two. Processing, finding, and showing the data to the end user takes time. The product is not intuitive. It is not easy to work with. It is not a fast system. I have never got a quick response from the system. We need a lot of patience to work with it.

I have been using the solution for more than three years.

Usually, the tool is stable.

It is easy to scale the tool. A few hundred people in our organization use the solution.

I suggest people try using the product to see if it fulfills their needs. Oracle CRM can be a good solution for people with many end users and a lot of data they need to process. Overall, I rate the solution a seven out of ten.

While using CRM I was a consultant making business analysis, high-level analysis making the implementation, and training the users on how to use the application. I was also doing testing and go-live with the production. I'd use it for requirement gathering from the customer and then map it to the application, implement it, fill the gaps, and make some workarounds. Sometimes we needed to use some development and then we tested it and put it live.

According to the business requirement itself, it must be valuable. It has good sales, marketing, and service aspects that we appreciate. We believe that Oracle is the most powerful service module over other products. It offers good customization. 

For the most part, the solution is straightforward.

In service, especially in contracts and with Field Service with integration with the spare parts, installment, and so on, spare management, in the second level is in sales, it could be a bit better. I don't find much improvement in marketing. They moved the improvements to cloud deployment for marketing.

I'd like to see more feature enhancements. For marketing, for example, I'd like to see integration with the general ledger enhancement. They already have the layout, however, they didn't put the functionality into it so far. For marketing, I want to have the marketing SMS campaign, and not have to customize all that from the beginning. I'd like to see everything integrated with social media. We'd like it to be easier to integrate any third-party app that we want - and not just Oracle apps. I'd like to see integration with Salesforce, Microsoft, SAP, etc.

I've dealt with the solution since 2007. I've used it in the last 12 months as a demo for clients. 

It's more stable in the application, especially when you are accessing it in your local network. If you have all your data and don't have these internet issues, it's stable. However, if you don't have an internet connection, no way you will be able to access the cloud. Unless there's a bug or something, it's reliable. 

The solution is scalable. It varies from module to module. For example, it scales well for sales and service more than marketing.

Technical support is great, They are very friendly. We could not survive without them. 

There are a lot of batches and technical issues. They must dig in each time we have an issue. At some point, they need to get involved. We're fine with that. They're helpful. No one can survive alone. We are like an integrated team. 

In our experience, 90% of the cases were sorted successfully. 10% of cases were related to some future enhancement or bugs. I cannot rate the consultant directly. Mostly, if the case is applicable to be solved, it is solved. Sometimes maybe it would take a very short time. Sometimes it would take longer as it was very complex or something. Sometimes it may have even been the case that it was the first time they faced the issue.

Positive

There are lots of other CRMs. We chose this one due to the fact that it had
old-school stability and we were able to have our data locally. It was also more flexible and made testing easier. 

For the most part, the solution is straightforward. For example, in 70% of the areas, it's straightforward to implement. However, there is about 30% of the implementation process is not straightforward at all.

The length of time the deployment takes depends on the project, for example, how many business units, the project business volume itself, how much customization, et cetera. It will never be less than, in the easiest deployment, three or four months.

I don't handle any aspects of the licensing. 

I installed the demo six months ago. I was using some variance of version 12. Eighter 12.0.8, 0.2, 0.8 or 0.9.

I recommend solutions according to the client's business needs. If they need something that is more flexible and giving them all that they need on-premise, I will advise them to get it. If they are needing a lot of functionality that's related to other products, or clouds, I will recommend other options that aren't Oracle.

I'd rate the solution nine out of ten.

We use it to host customer links to the production environment. We also use it for a lot of levels. The solution is smooth, easy to use, easy to customize and it has many features. Plus, there are regular updates.

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.

In the next release, I would like to see more dashboard optimization. If possible, features like future planning and capacity calculation would be great to see included.

I have been using the solution for two years. 

The solution is stable. 

The solution is scalable.

Their support team is very smooth, and even the support page portal offers great service if you are a customer.

Positive

It was very easy to set up. I think it took about one hour. The team needed for deployment depends on the customer requirements. If it's a larger deployment, you may need about three or four people, but if it's small, the deployment can be done by one individual.

The pricing for licensing is pretty expensive. If you need one particular feature it becomes expensive to have to continue paying for it. If the solution could improve the pricing plans, it would be better.

I would rate this solution a nine out of ten.

I consult clients mostly in the hospitality sector that use Oracle CRM.

We are most comfortable with the user interface that Oracle CRM has, it is very good.

The data visualization should be better in Oracle CRM.

I have been using Oracle CRM for approximately two years.

Oracle CRM is stable.

I have found the scalability of Oracle CRM to be good.

We have approximately 2,000 end users using this solution.

I have previously used Microsoft Dynamics and I have found it to be better than Oracle CRM.

I have not done the implementation myself but I think that it is not that difficult.

We have a business technology team that does the implementation of the solution.

There are licenses needed to use this solution and they are managed by our product team.

I rate Oracle CRM a seven out of ten.

We mainly use CRM for voucher submission for our employees for performance tracking, appraisal, and vendor relations and billing.

An improvement would be to lower the price of the license.

I've been using Oracle CRM for more than ten years.

CRM's performance is good, we've never faced any issues with it.

We previously used PeopleSoft.

CRM was easy to install.

We used a vendor team.

The cost of a license with support is slightly higher than a regular license.

I would definitely recommend Oracle CRM to anybody thinking of using it, and I would rate it eight out of ten.

The solution is implemented for our company. We use it for internal users, our employees, and some customers.

The solution is deployed on-prem.

The user interface and performance could be better.

I have been using this solution since 2005.

From an end user's experience, the solution is stable.

We have more than 10,000 people using this solution. We don't have any plans to increase usage.

We used a team of 25 people for deployment.

The solution is scalable.

Technical support is very fast. It's customer friendly.

We didn't do the installation ourselves.

The licensing is on a yearly basis.

I would recommend this solution. I would rate this solution 7 out of 10.

Though late entrant in the Cloud  area for CRM area, Oracle introduced the next gen Cloud based CRM Solution as part of it's Oracle Customer Experience(CX) suite which is more modular, cloud based and tightly integrated with both it's Customer Portal Solutions and Analytics Business Solutions.  This is the future of Oracle CRM and it has addressed the gap earlier existed.

Sometimes, we encountered stability issues.

Sometimes, we encountered scalability issues but once the server, OS, network and database are properly configured the problem was less.

Technical support is very good.

It is not the most cost-effective on-premise solution but it is worth it. The Cloud version, Customer CX takes care of the user-based/transaction-based pricing.

We evaluated other solutions such as Amdocs Clarify, Oracle E-Business Suite SFDC CRM, etc.

It is a good product with broad functions and industry-specific coverages.
