Useful for B2B retail operations and order management but UI is bland and old

The UI might not be the fanciest, and since it's an older system, our customers are sometimes hesitant to invest in it. They're even considering moving to new e-commerce solutions, maybe even something custom-built in-house. It's quite basic and bland compared to today's modern web developments, which have enhanced user experiences. We're just providing support services to our customers, and they’ve been exploring a move to Oracle Commerce. However, there's some concern about Oracle Commerce's future, especially since support for version 11.3.2 is set to end in March 2025. We haven’t heard back from Oracle regarding any plans to extend support. We’re just keeping the lights on for now, but a transformation might be on the horizon. We have done some proof of concept with Oracle Commerce.

Jonny Katz

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

"The features that help us to change the product and pricing are good. They give us enough flexibility to manage this application."

"The merchandising part is where the business user adds and configures permissions, which is quite important for us."

"The tool is useful for B2B retail operations. The e-commerce platform is helpful for our customers when searching for products they want to buy. They can look up items using part numbers or product descriptions, which helps them find exactly what they want. We rely on the search functionality a lot."

"The most valuable features are all the promotion capabilities and the tiered-pricing capabilities."

"The tool's most valuable features are its integration with various scanners, OCR capability, and ability to populate the system with a lot of information. We use the workload automation feature occasionally."

"The product is really good. It is a robust tool that can scale up in any business, including some multi-million businesses."

"Their support team is good."

"We can implement checks to ensure proper data entry with validation rules."

"Salesforce helps up keep track of candidates."

"We can also customize Salesforce Sales Cloud to our customer's company requirements. As for your demand, you can customize it. There are so many configurations we can do with the application. There is a lot of functionality that you can implement. It's an easy-to-use, user-friendly, and secure platform."

"The most valuable features are custom objects, custom workflows, triggering, and integration with other SaaS solutions."

"Salesforce Sales Cloud is very user-friendly, and simple to create dashboards and extract the reports. Additionally, it integrates well with other applications."

"The automation of Salesforce Sales Cloud makes the process very easier to focus on leads and converts them automatically to accounts, contacts, and opportunities."

"The product is very fast and responsive. There's no lag time when you are on the platform."

More Salesforce Sales Cloud pros

Cons

"Oracle has a cloud solution, but some on-prem features are not available in the cloud version."

"One drawback is that the tool could be more agile in adding new features. Since the product is very big, new features aren't added continuously. However, it already meets most of our requirements for day-to-day use."

"The only issue with the tool is that it is not cloud-based."

"So far, with Oracle ATG, I haven't seen any good cloud-based solutions."

"There should be some sort of native integration. All the integrations that we build are completely customized. There should also be a mechanism for user surveys and product reviews. As of now, I don't see any feature related to these. It must have a provision for doing customer surveys and allowing customers to give product feedback. If I have a customer who purchased something on the website, there has to be a mechanism for a company to capture the feedback. This feature is currently not there. Similarly, if a customer wants to do a review of the product, there is no native feature for that."

"The UI might not be the fanciest, and since it's an older system, our customers are sometimes hesitant to invest in it. They're even considering moving to new e-commerce solutions, maybe even something custom-built in-house."

"One area where the solution could improve is with handling feature requests."

"The problem is the solution has gotten so big, it's very complex now. It's a bit difficult to figure out how to do certain actions."

"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."

"Sales Cloud could be improved with more training. In general, the training is very good, but you have to really seek out some good options in order to upskill yourself. Another thing, which could also be a benefit, is that Sales is very customizable. If you move from one organization to another, you can see your Salesforce as before, but their Sales Cloud may look completely different from what you're used to. It's not like Microsoft Excel or Trello, where the layout and all the functions are the same. Because it's so customizable, I feel like there is a bit of a learning curve when you inherit another Sales Cloud instance. To be honest, I think that's the beauty of Salesforce because you can customize it so much to fit your needs as a company. It follows your processes and use cases in order for you to get the most out of the system itself."

"CI/CD is the biggest room for improvement. Deployment between environments and configuration."

"I don't like the way parent-child relationships work in transactions between records in Salesforce Sales Cloud. NetSuite is a little bit more user-friendly in that sense. Salesforce Sales Cloud requires that you build everything from scratch. I don't like that. It leaves a lot of thinking and solutions to the consultants and the process is more prone to errors."

"In the next release, I would like to see more integration."

"The areas revolving around archiving and backup in Salesforce Sales Cloud are not as advanced as some of the other solutions in the market."

More Salesforce Sales Cloud cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The tool's licensing is costly. Finding the right talent to manage it is also a challenge."

"Oracle ATG is an expensive solution."

"The product's pricing is moderate. We use a license module."

"Implementation and add-ons may be additional costs."

"The price is fair."

"It's expensive, storage being the most costly aspect."

"I've seen the prices for Salesforce Sales Cloud, but I haven't been the one to handle the money. As someone who's only visually looked at the price, I would imagine it's on the pricier side, but they do have a ton of leverage, and seeing that everyone I've worked for has always been dedicated to continuing Salesforce. I've never worked for anyone who has threatened to leave. Everyone has accepted the pricing for what they offer."

"Being license based, the license varies by type. The pricing is considered average."

"Sales Cloud is quite expensive."

"The overall price of Salesforce Sales Cloud could be better, it is more expensive than other competitors. There is an annual license for Salesforce Sales Cloud."

"We have a yearly license, and there are no hidden costs. Considering the Indian market, the pricing is reasonable. I don't consider it to be on the high side."

Overview

Oracle ATG is an ecommerce solution that features out-of-the-box omnichannel experiences, makes it easy and fast to launch websites, provides scalable business-user control, and integrates well with other products. The platform helps businesses ensure relevant experiences to their customers at each touchpoint of a customer’s purchase journey (including the web, contact center, mobile devices, social media, physical stores, and more). Thich helps to increase sales and ensure a seamless buying experience. The solution can be implemented on premises or hosted by Oracle or a third party and it also runs on one of three application servers, including Oracle WebLogic, JBoss, or IBM WebSphere.

Oracle ATG Web Commerce is made up of three platform layers:

The Dynamo application framework (DAF)
The personalization module (DPS)
The scenarios module (DSS)

Oracle ATG Features

Oracle ATG has many valuable key features. Some of the most useful ones include:

Personalization capabilities: Oracle ATG has personalization capabilities including DPS and DSS. The personalization module (DPS) provides control to customize the content as per customer interest, targeting content based on the customer’s interest. The scenarios module (DSS) extends the content targeting capabilities of the personalization module. In addition, you can have customized content in a way that changes dynamically for each user. Scenarios are time-sensitive, event-driven campaigns designed to manage interactions between site visitors and content over a long period.

Data anywhere architecture: Oracle ATG is designed with data anywhere architecture, meaning implementation is independent of the data source. With Oracle ATG, if you change your database, you do not have to change your code.

Payment integration support: Oracle ATG eCommerce supports various payment gateway integrations, which includes credit card, PayPal, or any other payment mode. The code can be customized to any payment method you want.

Application server support: Oracle ATG’s eCommerce applications are built on the concept of component-based model. It supports most of the major application servers, like JBOSS, WebLogic, and WebSphere. The component model is implemented using JSP and Java Beans, which are easily and widely used.

Oracle ATG Benefits

There are several benefits to implementing Oracle ATG. Some of the biggest advantages the solution offers include:

It has both B2B and B2C offerings.
It enables merchants to manage and sell complex products.
It allows merchants to efficiently personalize the shopper experience through customisable content, sites, and campaigns.
The solution is designed with a unified architecture that lets you manage multiple sites efficiently.
Oracle ATG includes robust personalization features, including tailored content and merchandise, personalized search, tailored websites, and customized marketing programs.
With the solution’s data anywhere architecture, you can easily manage integrations.
Business users can develop categories, products, and SKUs and organize them into catalogs that exist in a content management environment.
It is simple and easy to use with a clean interface.
Oracle ATG also has good dashboards for visualizing the data in a comprehensive and clear format.
Because Oracle ATG is a server-side, component-driven platform, you can use headless systems while retaining most of its features. If you already have an Oracle ATG setup, you can keep the frontend and migrate the backend to a microservices-based alternative for more flexibility.
