New forecasting process has cut update time in half and gives instant, accurate sales visibility
From my perspective as an admin user, I like the fact that I am able to get data out much quicker and it is much easier to use than SAP. From my colleagues' perspective as actual users and key account managers, they appreciate it because it is much quicker than moving around in SAP. They can copy an opportunity and all that data gets transferred over, allowing them to update it extremely quickly. The rule-based access control of Campfire Interactive is excellent. We set up a bunch of different levels of what they can see. This was really important for GDPR compliance for our European colleagues regarding what data would be allowed to be seen by whom. We could set up access where key account managers are only able to see their relevant forecasts while giving access to a CBU leader who can see all of the people who report into them, and someone like an SVP can see everybody. Having that rule-based permission is really great. The forecast accuracy of Campfire Interactive is good. It is all dependent on the data you put into the system, but there are certainly no issues with FX translation or incorrect data somehow showing up. Whatever data you put in the system is accurately reflected when you pull the report. The biggest advantage I have seen with Campfire Interactive versus our previous system, SAP, is the speed to make an opportunity. Even going through the CPQ process, you can do it much faster having it all in one system. Being able to pull reports as an admin, I can pull reports on when people have made changes, which makes it much easier if someone makes a mistake or if I need to understand why certain data is present. We can go in and look at version history. Monthly we run a locked version so we can very easily compare what has changed month over month if there have been drastic changes. In our previous system, I would have various downloads of SAP and someone would ask me what changed, and I would be looking through my Excel download files trying to find a file with the two projects I could compare. Now, I just go into Campfire Interactive, go to reports, include frozen, and I can select whatever months I want and compare that exact project over multiple times. That is way quicker and way easier to use. I like the functionality of being able to pull reports right from the system, and data accuracy is great.

End-to-end project management capabilities and offers seamless vendor and client contract alignment
The system is old, so there are several issues that arise when we fetch data from integrated systems. Sometimes the data gets stuck, and there are instances where we need to access multiple pieces of information simultaneously. This creates problems that I have personally experienced. Therefore, these aspects need to be much more free-flowing and seamless. If something gets stuck, it takes time to resolve, and during the contract phase, we have Service Level Agreements (SLAs). If those SLAs are breached, it becomes problematic. Given that there are approximately 3000 projects running concurrently worldwide, utilizing the system with a vast database and numerous activities taking place. It could benefit from decentralization. Currently, it operates as a central system, but if it could be centralized for specific subsidiaries, it would be easier for us to manage.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Campfire Interactive’s ability to manage data through business processes and workflows for your organization is good."
"What I appreciate most about Campfire Interactive is that it is very easy to update the interface."
"When it comes to opportunity management and sales forecasting, I have recommended Campfire Interactive to at least 10 companies over my career, including some of the largest Tier 1 automotive customer suppliers in the world. Different companies have adopted different aspects of Campfire Interactive and have been happy with the solution."
"I appreciate the dashboard features and widget features of Campfire Interactive because it has the ability to consolidate data in bar graphs or pie charts, making it very easy to visualize the situation with new opportunities."
"I appreciate the flexibility of the company more than any specific software feature. I have worked with SAP and other software providers before, and since it is still a smaller company, there is a very personal exchange. If we have a simple need that does not require coding, the company is willing to make changes overnight or even within hours. They are truly flexible and customer-oriented."
"Campfire Interactive is going to be a huge success for Gentherm."
"The forecast accuracy of Campfire Interactive works effectively and their role-based access controls are good."
"The best features Campfire Interactive offers include the opportunity to have a closed loop system from the start of a quote or opportunity through planning and the end of production on a program."
"It improves productivity, cash flow management, and inventory control for clients."
"The integration portion with SAP models is valuable."
"The stability is good, and I have nothing bad to say about it."
"With SAP Portfolio and Project Management we were able to have a full track of project progress and get useful insights about our projects."
"SAP is gradually introducing more flexibility and customization options to the system, allowing users to adapt it to their specific needs."
"The SAP PPM software is a very complete solution."
 

Cons

"One area where Campfire Interactive can improve is their reporting tool, as I believe that area is very weak at the moment."
"One aspect that could be simplified with Campfire Interactive is the process of entering opportunities into the portal. Currently, if we receive a quotation for 20 parts, we can enter one opportunity in our homegrown system that allows us to list all 20 parts within that single opportunity, but Campfire Interactive requires creating separate opportunities for each part."
"I can complete in Excel in an hour what might take me six hours in Campfire Interactive."
"What I dislike about Campfire Interactive is its lack of flexibility."
"Regarding BI Reporting, the standard reporting module within Campfire Interactive primarily gives you an Excel data dump, and while there are some visualizations for creating dashboards, I found those limited for my needs. We started presenting the data to Microsoft Power BI, which is much better for generating the reports I want."
"They occasionally became overwhelmed, leading to slowdowns due to the busy workforce."
"Enhancements for Campfire Interactive would be more reporting, better reporting, and better looking reporting."
"From a technical standpoint, there are some limitations within the tool that are somewhat out of Campfire Interactive's control because it's a complicated industry to try and have one solution that fits all vendors. There are times when we go to execute reports from their system, and the data does not generate as expected."
"The initial support package of version 5.0 has some setup difficulties."
"The platform's support structure needs improvement."
"The system is old, so there are several issues that arise when we fetch data from integrated systems. Sometimes the data gets stuck, and there are instances where we need to access multiple pieces of information simultaneously."
"It would be valuable if SAP integrated seamlessly with some products like Jira and Bitbucket."
"The product itself could have an advanced analytics layer with an improved user interface that is adapted to the new digital era."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We had a negotiation with them back in March of this year to extend our contract for 1 year. They were willing to work with us to negotiate different terms and a different cost of production. They were asking for a certain percentage increase, and we said that was not acceptable. They were willing to settle on a different number."
"Compared to everything else I have seen, it is very fair."
"I don't know the full scope of our subscriptions for all the modules, but from what I've seen before, it seems fairly expensive. The high cost may drive some potential clients to consider developing a homegrown solution internally if they have a competent finance group."
"It's fairly priced."
"Campfire Interactive is on the expensive side, with approximately $100,000 to $120,000 in expenses."
"The product pricing varies based on whether the client is new or existing and the complexity of their business processes."
