Pros
"Freshsales is user-friendly, scalable and stable.""Freshsales is very simple to use, but it's fairly limited in its functionalities, and it's very cheap.""I like Freshsales because it's integrated with Shopify which we use to host our website.""The solution is a low-cost CRM product compared to other CRM alternatives.""One of the most valuable features is the ability to divert deals based on the potential revenue or specific market to certain sales teams."

Cons
"The reporting for this solution across all their products could be improved. Currently, we have clients who export their data from Freshservices to third party solutions such Power BI to create more comprehensive reports.""The price of this solution could be improved as well as the reporting functionality.""It lacks customizability for complex and larger use cases.""The solution needs to improve the user experience and leads capture.""We have a problem with the time to delivery for our customers, although this is not specific to this solution. Time to delivery can be 90 days."

More Freshsales Cons →

"The tool took a lot of time to deploy.""The backend performance of Siebel could be improved as it is often slow. In addition, the Open UI is not that responsive.""However, there are areas that this product has not evolved at par with global industry trends, including the UX/UI and cloud capabilities.""The documentation needs to be improved.""The problem with Siebel is that everything is customizable in it. It's probably over-engineered, which makes it difficult to use, and it makes it difficult for the users to get started with the system.""The solution itself is very heavy.""The UI could be improved by being fully cloud native as this is what our customers are looking for. It would also be great to see what updates are coming up for release and for updates to take place automatically without manual intervention.""I want Oracle to improve the tool’s UI with a vanilla application. I would also like to see an insurance broking vertical in their future releases. There are thousands of brokers who look for an insurance broking solution."

  • "Freshsales is an economical product."

  • "Its licensing is yearly."
  • "The price of Siebel CRM depends on the usage of the business requirement. For large enterprises the price it's very good but if you are using it for medium scale enterprises, the price is very expensive."
  • "This solution is expensive compared to other solutions in the market. This makes it difficult to convince our customers to use it. The customers who are already using Siebel have thought about moving to Velocity or Salesforce."
  • "I think the tool’s pricing is exaggerated. Once you do the price sizing as per your business needs, you would find that the price of other solutions like Zoho CRM, HubSpot CRM, Salesforce CRM, etc. would be always the same."
  • "The product is expensive."
