Has streamlined customer interaction tracking but the pricing structure needs more flexibility
The biggest constraint with HubSpot CRM is their pricing. Their per-user pricing is on the higher side, and most of their enterprise contracts require a minimum one-year guarantee for any enterprise agreement. Because we are using a free module of HubSpot CRM, we certainly see some value in it. We have been willing to pay HubSpot CRM money in the past. We certainly see an ROI out of that. The constraint is that they require a year-long commitment of minimum number of users. Our number of users is lesser than the commitment that they require. They require minimum five users to be signed into HubSpot CRM. Normally within the organization, there are only two or three people who use it. From that point of view, the seat cost and annual commitment are some of the things where we currently don't see a lot of value in using it.

Integration capabilities facilitate efficient data management and enhance customer service, but the analytics requires improvement
The analytics capabilities in Siebel CRM have presented numerous challenges. Due to these challenges, we had to integrate Microsoft Power BI. The CRM analytics was not sufficient for our needs, given that we have four million customers and a thousand products. We are currently focusing on the upgrade and discussing with Oracle. If there have been improvements in the analytics side over the past few years, we are open to evaluating them. Currently, all analytics are being done on Power BI. The data is exported to our data lake, and Power BI is being used for all reporting and analytics. Even our customer 360, which is the core of any CRM, has Power BI widgets built-in through iframe because we could not accomplish this through Siebel CRM. The analytics component has been the main pain point for our organization, particularly due to processing time and performance with our large customer base.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Ease of use is the most essential feature for us. HubSpot is intuitive, so you can learn everything just by exploring and trying it out yourself."
"The best thing about HubSpot is its clear workflow. Anyone can understand the flows of your contacts, your emails, their delivery dates, and the reasons behind their movements."
"The initial setup process is straightforward."
"The feature that I find valuable is the customer 360-degree view and the marketing automation."
"I am working in a small company. We have a sales teams that consist of 10 people. HubSpot CRM is scalable and easy to use."
"We get a good overview of where everything is in the pipeline."
"The most valuable feature of HubSpot CRM is the forms."
"The interface is good."
"Siebel CRM is the number one CRM product in the world."
"It is quite robust and flexible. You can develop almost anything you want. You go into the tools, and you can do anything you want."
"Due to the many features that are built in from a CRM perspective, it is the best product we have."
"If you have a proper business case and a large enterprise where you need to manage more than a million customers then it's a highly recommended solution."
"The best thing about the tool is its data model. The underlying data model refers to how the data is stored in databases. We can also experience the ease of developing anything with the tool. We can customize any functionality as per any business challenge."
"The tool's complaint management feature is very good. We used a CRM before, which lacked the integrations, so complaints had to be handled manually. With Siebel CRM, we have better integrations and can resolve complaints with a few clicks. When you're in the service industry, tasks matter a lot, especially when you have to access multiple systems to address issues. Being a bank, we currently have around 17 operational systems. It's not feasible to expect users to access them individually to make the necessary changes."
"Siebel CRM's most beneficial aspects are the workflows. It has complete holistic workflows for a customer management system."
"The solution's order management pack is quite fantastic."
 

Cons

"In HubSpot CRM there are many subscription models. Some things are limited compared to the subscription models. For example, I cannot track all the tasks that I have in CRM at once. I need to click on the specific deal to see what the task is. This could improve in the future."
"We had a problem with the tool’s stability once."
"HubSpot CRM should include better scanning of business cards and getting content in."
"HubSpot CRM could improve in integration with other solutions."
"This solution could be easier to use. You really have to be hands on in the beginning as its an in depth solution. It takes some time to learn how it works before you can start using it."
"This solution could be easier to use. You really have to be hands on in the beginning as its an in depth solution."
"HubSpot CRM integration needs improvement."
"The solution's email capabilities could be improved. While these do exist, there are other platforms which offer much more robust capabilities when it comes to emailing."
"The tool took a lot of time to deploy."
"Very complex (User setup, Account imports, EIM on Opportunity, Marketing). In summary, we had to struggle a lot to get the software running with all relevant data."
"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."
"Siebel is not user-friendly."
"Currently, Siebel CRM is not helping the agent provide faster feedback to the customer."
"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."
"However, there are areas that this product has not evolved at par with global industry trends, including the UX/UI and cloud capabilities."
"The user interface could be more intuitive and modern. The Oracle Siebel documentation contains many links, and finding specific information takes time."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is in a midrange if you line up the marketing tools."
"Pricing is based on the number of users."
"There are a few licensing payment models, such as annual or monthly. The solution is modular, which means that if you need a specific capability or function within the organization, you can purchase it specifically and you don't have to purchase something that is only utilized by 20 percent of the organization."
"The pricing is reasonable."
"There is a cost for the solution. However, I am not aware of the price."
"The price of HubSpot CRM is expensive."
"It's in the upper range. If 10 represents the most expensive, I'd rate it a 7 out of 10. Its price also depends on the size of your team."
"We are using HubSpot CRM’s free version."
"The product is expensive."
"Its licensing is yearly."
"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 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."
