Alveiro Goyeneche - PeerSpot reviewer
Best suitable for small to medium companies and offers excellent technical support and training
The dashboard and reporting features of escala CRM have been beneficial because they are straightforward to use. Unlike other tools that try to do too much, escala focuses on simplicity, making it easier to train employees and adapt to our market needs. This simplicity is crucial for us, as extensive training can be expensive and time-consuming. The integration of Escala CRM with other tools is very good, particularly due to its use of APIs. Integrating with other applications is straightforward and standard practice, making it easy to connect with different tools as needed. Whether I would recommend escala CRM to others depends on the specific needs of the customer. If they require more than just CRM functionality, such as digital marketing capabilities, escala may not be a good fit. However, if they primarily need CRM features, it is worth considering based on its focus on small and medium-sized companies, excellent support, and training. Overall, I would rate escala CRM as a nine out of ten.
Srini-Dhanaraj - PeerSpot reviewer
The product is stable, it has a lot of features, and the user interface is excellent
SAP C4C is very simple. We used it for a simple module, like lead and opportunity. The integration capabilities on the cloud are a bit rigid. It is not flexible. When people visit websites, we take the cookies, try to create leads and communicate with them. Organizations that want to buy the product must consider their return on investment and why they need SAP. They must consider why they cannot use any other product. If the business process is complex and we need good integration, we can choose SAP. The solution is complex for businesses where people place orders and make payments. We will have to integrate the solution with a data warehouse for the communication to go in and out. I rate the product a five out of ten for such a scenario. If an organization only does sales and marketing, I rate the tool an eight out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable feature of Escala CRM is its excellent training and support."
"SAP CRM is very fast, providing accurate information and good results."
"From the bank perspective, it's user-friendly and simple to develop something specific for a certain customer. It allows customization for individual customers rather than applying a one-size-fits-all approach."
"The most important factor for recommending SAP CRM is its integration with the core SAP platform. Globally, most enterprises are using SAP as an ERP platform to manage their key business functions. SAP CRM has out-of-the-box integration with the core SAP platform. You can integrate your pre-sales and post-sales into the single platform on the SAP CRM very easily, and you can extend that CRM to your customers who can actually see what is happening to their orders—such as whether it is dispatched or not dispatched or at what stage it is—simply by logging onto the CRM platform."
"Once the lead is matured, you can convert it into an opportunity and you can track it by the opportunity based on the product segment."
"It was comfortable setting up the tool."
"SAP CRM has a good performance."
"SAP CRM is very much customizable as per our company requirements, such as adding different kinds of products and making codes."
"The stability is good."
 

Cons

"It might not be suitable for larger enterprises."
"In terms of visibility of the data, there's a very limited set that we have access to and sometimes it's very difficult and not user-friendly to analyze from front end to back end. It's the biggest challenge, even if I'm working with an organization where we've implemented SAP."
"They have recently updated their user interface but they should continue to improve upon it in the future. Additionally, overall performance or speed of response times could be better."
"The interface could be improved."
"There is no scope for integration because SAP does not allow any personal integration."
"There could be some specific configurable options on the UI level to improve visibility."
"The solution is slow."
"In terms of stability, there are some latency issues."
"SAP CRM could improve by making the solution more current, it is out of date. There are no more updates for SAP CRM."
