Great granular DOM level with excellent analytics and reporting
There are three valuable areas: One of them is the granular DOM level where it captures behaviors on the application. Another is the analytics, because you don't need to provide it with a rule to identify the issues, it will analyze the usage of all the customers accessing that site and see if there are any abnormalities and it will identify unexpected changes in the pattern and that there is something wrong that needs to be checked out. That is extremely useful. Finally, the ability to create meaningful reports and dashboards to tell stories. The reports enable you to re-target customers if they've had any problems.

Have built intelligent workflows and accelerated lead conversion through embedded AI and process integration
There's definitely room for process improvement in SAP Service Cloud. In my opinion, what can be better in SAP Service Cloud includes having the data center existence properly implemented. Not all cloud solutions are present in data centers. While we evaluate the product, we have to check the existence of the product in all nearest data centers. For example, while I check the data center through the Trust Center on SAP's website, I found that most cloud solutions are installed in Riyadh, but they are missing some very important tools such as LeanIX, which is not existent in Saudi Arabia. E-commerce solutions are also missing, and some aspects of C4C, such as Customer Data Cloud, are not present in many data centers. Not all components in cloud solutions exist in key centers in the Middle East and North Africa. They evaluate demand before installation, but having all solutions in the center point could encourage sales cycles.

Quotes from Members

Pros

"You can let your imagination think about a use case and if it's related to customer behavior on the district channels, it can most probably be done."
"The ability to create meaningful reports and dashboards to tell stories."
"The embedded AI inside SAP, called Business AI, impacts decision-making and resolution times significantly, working as a smart conversational chat in Joule to create dashboards and compare historical data with sales forecasts."
 

Cons

"An area that can be improved is on the technical side where you identify an event."
"The technical side requires development skills during implementation. This could be simplified."
"Not all components in cloud solutions exist in key centers in the Middle East and North Africa."
