ToniaSpight-Sokoya - PeerSpot reviewer
A CRM system that helps you automate and integrate your customer data and customer facing-activities: sales, marketing, service, and e-commerce
One area for improvement is the security model, especially regarding records management retention and the audit and legal holds. Since we're in the middle of a cloud digital transformation, it's essential to ensure the system flags documents properly according to global retention policies. We need to address bugs and make sure our system fully aligns with our procedures and policies. This is crucial to prevent breaches, especially in a time when breaches are becoming more common. For instance, my personal identity was compromised four months ago when my mortgage company had a breach, and I’m still working with the FTC to clean up the damage. In my work in mortgage and financial services, I’m focused on preventing this kind of issue for our consumers and clients.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It is a fast and reliable solution."
"The interface is easy to use and has many features, such as email marketing and ad management, live chat, and more."
"It's easy to configure and easy to create a data source or replicate it to another one."
"From the bank perspective, it's user-friendly and simple to develop something specific for a certain customer. It allows customization for individual customers rather than applying a one-size-fits-all approach."
"SAP CRM has a good performance."
"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 tool is easy to use."
"SAP CRM is very much customizable as per our company requirements, such as adding different kinds of products and making codes."
"One of the main things is that the reports are very customizable. It is very easy and user-friendly to customize the reports the way the user wants. They can see the reports as per their expectations and change them accordingly."
"When we are using SAP CRM we receive more accurate results than using any other CRM system."
"We like that this solution has made our whole accounting function paperless."
 

Cons

"Nimble sometimes slows down the progress of any work or project we have pending as it lacks the customization to manage the task through the work dashboard."
"The product has a security flaw."
"The solution should improve its replication groups' verification confirmation."
"The solution is slow."
"The solution is expensive."
"The product is very expensive."
"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."
"The interface could be improved."
"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."
"There could be some specific configurable options on the UI level to improve visibility."
"In terms of visibility of the data, there's a very limited set that we have access to and sometimes it's very difficult and not user-friendly to analyze from front end to back end. It's the biggest challenge, even if I'm working with an organization where we've implemented SAP."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is cost-effective."
"The pricing is moderate."
"We pay for the license yearly."
"The pricing from SAP is good but it takes time to realize the investment."
"From the maintenance perspective, SAP CRM is quite expensive compared to cloud services because the current solution they're using is managed by us and we are hosting it on servers. There is the cost of hosting, and managing servers and applications. The overhead is substantial, but this solution is a legacy system. It will take some time for the customer to migrate out of it."
"SAP CRM is an expensive product."
"The product is costly."
"Every user needs to have a license."
"SAP CRM offers a free trial for anyone wanting to test the product before purchasing it."
"There is a license required to use SAP CRM."
