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.

Customization and automation drive effective user training and insights sharing
Recently, the price of SAP CRM has increased, which is one concern. Another issue is that sometimes we experience slow performance. Reports in SAP CRM itself can become very slow. Other than that, it is a very good CRM system. I am happy with SAP CRM because whenever we have requirements for changes or customization as per our needs, we get them, and the downtime is minimal. We are getting very good support from the incident team and the in-house support team who are responsible for customization. Some customer centers have moved to Salesforce, but I don't have any experience with Salesforce to make a comparison.

Pros

"The most valuable feature of Escala CRM is its excellent training and support."

"The stability of SAP CRM is good."
"The most valuable feature is lead management and integration."
"The stability is good."
"When we are using SAP CRM we receive more accurate results than using any other CRM system."
"The features that are used most are the lead model and the opportunity model. We can create many different pipelines with many phases. These features improved our process in the States very well."
"The features that I have found most valuable are that our management side can see the report instantly, they can predict the forecast, and see what is in the pipeline."
"I have found the most valuable feature of the SAP CRM system is its ability to integrate with other modules."
 

Cons

"It might not be suitable for larger enterprises."
"The solution needs more flexible customization, tender request, and they need to think about some of the localization aspects."
"It can be a bit more user friendly, to be honest. Sometimes there are too many apps options."
"There could be some specific configurable options on the UI level to improve visibility."
"This will happen in the C4C, which needs to be improved, because we see many bugs and error messages, even if the inputs are okay."
"I think what needs to be improved is the solution for Brazil's organization."
"What I see as a challenge against our competitor is that Salesforce comes with more flexibility, for enhancement purposes, whereas the SAP CRM Cloud is more robust and rigid."
"When features do get added, we would like the product to notify us in a timely way."
"SAP CRM is an expensive solution and is the most challenging aspect of the solution."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product is costly."
"Every user needs to have a license."
"As for the product licensing, we pay an annual fee. It's important to consider setup costs and licensing based on your organization's budget and needs."
"The pricing from SAP is good but it takes time to realize the investment."
"We have to pay a yearly licensing fee for SAP CRM, which is expensive."
"From the maintenance perspective, SAP CRM is quite expensive compared to cloud services because the current solution they're using is managed by us and we are hosting it on servers. There is the cost of hosting, and managing servers and applications. The overhead is substantial, but this solution is a legacy system. It will take some time for the customer to migrate out of it."
"They should reduce the price to target small businesses."
