Greg Jacob - PeerSpot reviewer
Executive Consultant at Gemini Solutions Group
Streamlines collaboration across teams and has a straightforward setup process
The platform initiates a series of processes to complete the sale, which may involve ordering equipment, providing services, and tracking necessary activities. The feature that has been most effective in improving sales performance is its alignment with the ordering team. Compared to my experience working with HubSpot, which excelled in presales and marketing but lacked integration with ERP and post-sales processes, NetSuite CRM+ stands out for its ability to streamline collaboration and information sharing across teams. It facilitates post-sales engagement by effectively providing visibility into the bill of materials and assigning responsibilities. The platform is not highly customizable like Salesforce. However, it offers sufficient flexibility for our requirements. I can easily create different views and reports and add widgets to my home screen as needed. I rate it an eight out of ten.
Jonny Katz - PeerSpot reviewer
VP of Business Operations at PeerSpot
Uses data-driven insights to improve workflows and highlights a need for simpler automation tools
Salesforce Sales Cloud can be improved in several areas. First, the UI is an area for enhancement. Even though they've launched Lightning, it's clunky at times with page load speeds. It also needs to be made extremely more user-friendly. For new people using Salesforce Sales Cloud, there is a steep learning curve. Additionally, giving non-admins the ability to make changes on the fly is something that I feel is necessary. Currently with Salesforce Sales Cloud, you need to have a consultant. It's hard to build the flows or workflows. Making it easier for that end-user who's not so technically minded to help themselves is essential. I choose seven out of ten because I think you need a consultant or a consulting company to help you build it out. Certain changes should be made much easier and more user-friendly where an admin can do it. The automation processes need to be much simpler. If you're looking at other tools out there, for example SalesLoft or HubSpot, it's much easier to build those workflows and do automation.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Very scalable solution that provides customer relationship management, sales, and marketing functions. It's very straightforward to set up, and it supports multi-subsidiary organizations."
"The fact that you have all your products with NetSuite CRM+, and you have the ability to add those from the beginning of a lead to a quote to an opportunity, means the whole process flows well compared to using other CRMs in the market."
"We use the product for standard CRM functions like email marketing, account management, scheduling customer profiles, and marketing materials, and for integration with the Suite Commerce."
"NetSuite CRM+ helps us provide customer support and track schedules for field service."
"The feature that has been most effective in improving sales performance is its alignment with the ordering team."
"Easy to understand and logical GUI."
"It has custom fields and custom reports which can align to our business objectives and marketing focus."
"Overall, I would recommend Salesforce, as it's an industry leader and integrates well across multiple platforms."
"It gives us great visibility into tracking opportunities and interactions with customers through email and phone conversations."
"It is fast, accurate, I can access it anywhere, I can log calls live while the information is fresh in my mind, and it has really helped expand our customer base."
"The tool is quite flexible."
"Salesforce is very flexible and provides developmental tools in case you have special requirements."
"The solution has the ability to run reports on the pipeline and understand the likelihood of the sales. The analytics tools are very good."
 

Cons

"The product or service could be improved by incorporating AI functionality to provide intuitive assistance."
"The product needs to improve the warehouse management feature."
"What could be improved in NetSuite CRM+ is its UI, because it's ugly."
"NetSuite's field service automation should be updated. We should be able to fully automate the assignment of service orders to technicians."
"What could be improved in NetSuite CRM+ is its UI, because it's ugly. When you compare it to the Salesforce UI, the UI in Salesforce, particularly its reporting, looks better."
"Compared to other CRM solutions, Salesforce is expensive. It is more affordable for enterprise users than for small businesses."
"No free SQL like Query Analytics tool (you are limitied to a certain amount of tables you can include in a query/report)"
"The solution is secure. However, they could always improve on security."
"Salesforce Sales Cloud overall is too complex. There is too much functionality, it's hard for the user, at the beginning. It takes a lot of time to update the information."
"The monitoring is very good, but it could be better."
"The performance is sometimes slow. There is too much information and this makes it difficult to find the answers we are looking for."
"As a presale team leader, I see a need to better understand the platform because our current knowledge is limited. This makes it difficult to explore possible extensions of its use. We also want more detailed information on commercial opportunities included in the tool. It needs to include better documentation on the functions it offers."
"Reporting can become slow to pull once you reach a certain limit of contact records due to the complexity and volume of the data available."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Compared to other tools, you have to pay for the NetSuite CRM+ module itself. You will pay a recurring fee regardless of how many users you have, then you will pay a fee per user, per month. Its cost is not a licensing cost per user, but a module cost and a user cost."
"It ultimately depends on the features and functionalities required for your specific use case."
"I have found Salesforce Sales Cloud to be expensive. However, it is the number one CRM solution in the world. It is worth the money."
"It's expensive, storage being the most costly aspect."
"The price is fair."
"The price of the product is very high. I rate the product price a ten on a scale of one to ten, where one means low price, and ten means expensive."
"Sales Cloud is quite expensive."
"The main thing is it is costly. Salesforce it is not cheap, it's costly. Some of our customers say it is a costly solution. So, we have lost some sale opportunities regarding the high price. This is the main thing that we are facing. It is sales per user and the user price is about $150 per month, per user for the Enterprise Edition. The other edition is less than this, but it is costly. A company that has 70 or 80 users would pay more than $8,000 USD yearly because it is cloud based."
"You need to pay for the license per user per month. For example, you need to pay $100 per user. If you have 200 users using your Salesforce, that would be multiplied by a hundred, that's $20,000 per month and a quarter million per year."
"The price of Salesforce Sales Cloud could be reduced. It is expensive."
