My client is a bank with a call center that receives customer complaints and routes those issues to different departments. They also have a service department that serves the other departments in the bank. Oracle Service Cloud has a Coral browser, which agents can use to log into the machine seamlessly rather than using the viewer or other solutions on the market.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?
Service Cloud has been stable so far. It's fairly new— only in the market for about three to five years.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
All Oracle products are top-notch when it comes to scalability and robustness.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
I started deploying Microsoft Dynamic CRM in 2018 when it was just rudimentary. Now it's Microsoft Dynamics 365. I've also deployed other solutions, but those are CRMs focused on a small niche. They don't have a scope as large as Oracle's. Oracle has same engagement CRMs for banking, automotive, and extractive industries. Oracle draws on the fact that they have an extensive history with JD Edwards, and all of this experience has been put into Oracle CRM, so it is a more robust solution than other CRMs.
What other advice do I have?
I rate Oracle Service Cloud 11 out of 10. I think this product is the future of the data because it's capable of centralizing all data into one single shop, giving you a quick 360 view of the customers. This is a peculiar feature of the Oracle CRM cloud, making it valuable for all types of businesses, whether it's banking, BFSI, automotive, or whatever enterprise solution. It is critical that you engage your customers from a 360 perspective.
Which deployment model are you using for this solution?
Public Cloud
If public cloud, private cloud, or hybrid cloud, which cloud provider do you use?

What needs improvement?
It's not lean to manage.
For how long have I used the solution?
One to three years.

Testimonial Review of Oracle RightNow CX
What is most valuable?
Basically, it is a suite built for providing services; the ability to connect to the customers is a highlight here by making use of all communication modes. A meaningful interaction with the customer in order to gather the utmost possible information to provide better solution makes the difference here.
Features including Chat, Co-Browse, SLA, Social Monitor, Knowledge Base, Smart Assistant, etc., are found most valuable.
How has it helped my organization?
67% of consumers turn to a company's social media site for customer service. Social Monitoring does a perfect job here (by social media integration with Oracle RightNow).
What needs improvement?
- Customization of the client's branding establishment instead of the default Oracle brand signs (example: logo in the login Screen)

I have used it for six months.
What was my experience with deployment of the solution?
We have had no issues with the deployment.

This is my first experience working with a cloud CRM tool like Oracle RightNow.

Initial setup was completely straightforward. Required interface- and site-level modifications can be done easily in the cloud portal with the help of Configuration Assistant.
What was our ROI?
Customers who enjoy a great customer experience actually pay 30% more on average for that experience. Great knowledge gathering and continuous requests to provide prolonged service are the ROI.
What other advice do I have?
The customer journey surrounds three experiences: "The Web Experience", "The Contact Centre Experience" and "The Social Experience". Oracle RightNow has given equal importance to these three, which overwhelmingly satisfies the customer.
