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.

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."
"It's a good tool because in the same software, in the ERP, you have a CRM and all the administration, documents and policies in the same product."
"We are using the HANA Z database for CRM, which enhances the products we are currently using by making the system more efficient. Everything is connected to CRM, so we can use the data for analytics, sales forecasting, and data modeling."
"SAP CRM has improved our sales activities by providing accurate information about the customers which assists the sales team to close deals."
"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."
"Getting the right information at the right time across different programs is important. These programs lack interaction between them. IPA is a good option to bring them together."
"The product integrates with third-party tools easily."
"Overall productivity improved by more than 50%."
"SAP is highly stable compared to competitors like Salesforce and Microsoft Dynamics 365, as we haven't seen significant downtime in the last couple of years and it runs smoothly with disaster recovery made easy by the NetApp and SAP partnership, so the product works flawlessly."
 

Cons

"It might not be suitable for larger enterprises."
"SAP CRM should create a more user-friendly graphical user interface (GUI)."
"When features do get added, we would like the product to notify us in a timely way."
"SAP must provide a demo system for the customers."
"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."
"The integration of SAP CRM with the SAP platform is relatively easier as compared to any other third-party product. If you go for any other third-party product, you will have a lot of challenges in terms of integration."
"One area for improvement is the security model, especially regarding records management retention and the audit and legal holds."
"SAP CRM could improve by making the solution more current, it is out of date. There are no more updates for SAP CRM."
"The B2C features of SAP are strong, but they are not very known to the public and companies. They must make it more known for B2C applications or B2C use cases."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"The pricing from SAP is good but it takes time to realize the investment."

"The licensing model for SAP CRM is customer-based."
"There is a license required to use SAP CRM."
"We have to pay a yearly licensing fee for SAP CRM, which is expensive."
