Helps business track their customers, sales leads, and opportunities
An area for improvement is the vendors' inability to understand the customers' requirements and communicate them to Oracle. When we started to implement the tool, and during the very initial phases of the product, when Oracle launched it, our company opted for it. We faced a few challenges related to the product speed associated with some functionalities that were not available when the tool was just launched, but later on, it became available, and right now, we are actually using it. The tool is fulfilling our requirements. There were no major hiccups or challenges due to the tool. The solution's mobile app needs to be enriched with more functionalities in the future.

Integration enhances efficiency with good ERP Fusion Console that helps with centralization
When it comes to ERP Cloud, performance has always been an issue, especially when calling an API or a VIP publisher. I experience timeouts, which Oracle needs to improve. There have been many service requests around this, particularly last year. Although progress has been made, performance is still a concern for me. When dealing with bulk data uploads via a BDI process, some records occasionally fail, requiring me to debug and reprocess them. Enhanced performance is something that I would be interested in.

Customizable and flexible but user experience needs enhancement
Siebel is not user-friendly. There are so many tabs and different features that until it's explained to someone, they will not understand it. A user-friendly tool is supposed to be designed in a way where the user can log in and intuitively understand how to use it. People who use it regularly are still confused, and it requires a lot of clicks and is very difficult to navigate. Sometimes it takes a lot of time to reflect the correct information—even when it's updated, you have to refresh it again and again to see the right data.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable feature is the ability to automatically enrich deals by connecting to APIs. This allows me to gather additional information about companies, number of employees, and data from the previous year. Having this information helps me understand the size of the company better and tailor my proposals accordingly."
"The forecasting reporting section was the most useful."
"It is very simple."
"Oracle CRM is very, very stable, one of the most stable products I've used in my career, and doesn't require much maintenance."
"CRM's performance is good, we've never faced any issues with it."
"It is difficult to highlight the most valuable features because the system as a whole works very well for our loyal program. It is a very good system and I believe that they are the oldest loyalty system on the market. The service is very good, with many customizable options, and has a strong database to help us build our rules and point systems for the loyal program."
"We are able to take back control of our client sales information and analyze it for the future to improve."
"Oracle CRM helped us better understand the customer journey."
"The solution changes the way clients work to make it easier and faster."
"It has provided a faster turnaround time. We were able to automate a number of transactional tasks and return that extra time to taking care of customers."
"The solution is easy to learn."
"There is also a focus on maintaining efficiency, and it is a significant time saver."
"Everything is managed by Oracle, so they have security in place."
"Previously, my clients used a smaller ERP system, not a major one. However, they have now transitioned to Oracle, which provides them with a more extensive range of options. Unlike before, it's now an integrated system that covers various aspects, including finance, supply chain management, and other functionalities."
"Oracle offers a wide range of applications, each capable of delivering significant value to our business."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is that customers can easily understand it."
"Siebel CRM has enhanced customer engagement for our organization, particularly through its robust data model and flexible features. One specific scenario where Siebel CRM excelled was in addressing complex client requirements. For instance, we successfully implemented a module for email responses, a feature that was not readily available or as robust as other CRM tools. Additionally, Siebel's open UI module allowed us to customize the user interface for one of our clients completely. This customization proved to be a major selling point for our company."
"Siebel CRM has a strong database model, workflow and integration tools."
"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 is the number one CRM product in the world."
"Due to the many features that are built in from a CRM perspective, it is the best product we have."
"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 flexibility is very good."
"Siebel offers a high level of customization which has been valuable. The solution also offers the ability to model complex products."
 

Cons

"I think Oracle CRM could improve its user interface and user experience to make it more engaging. Currently, it has a more traditional enterprise look, but I believe it could benefit from more catchy and engaging colours and designs to better engage with users and stakeholders. While the capabilities might be there, the interface may not be very inviting for first-time users."
"The one thing that I hate about it is when you pay for services for a certain amount of time, the service ends just before it should be over. For example, I may pay for a month of service, but it will tell me the service is over before the month ends."
"I'd like to see more feature enhancements."
"I would like to see the UI improved ."
"The solution's mobile app needs to be enriched with more functionalities in the future."
"The initial setup is complex, it could be improved to be more simplified."
"Their support could be faster. Like any other solution provider, in some cases, it takes time to get their response, and sometimes, they do not fix the issue in the first round. Therefore, we have to go through another round."
"I would like to remove all manual work and get the benefits of the function that Oracle provides without any manual interference or paperwork."
"Lacks the ability to deploy custom code for customization."
"The dependency on the dollar makes these products more costly during disruptions in currency parity, especially in countries like Pakistan."
"Oracle changed the means by which users are created in the system. I would like this to be easier to implement."
"When it comes to ERP Cloud, performance has always been an issue, especially when calling an API or a VIP publisher. I experience timeouts, which Oracle needs to improve."
"There are specific areas that would be beneficial to enhance and improve, especially its financial functionality, search capabilities, chat features, and content articles."
"Delivering the solution to clients can be quite complex and requires highly trained technicians with expertise."
"Oracle Service Cloud could improve the integration for older platforms."
"Some features that require improvement include the location functionality and certain aspects of the CRM."
"Siebel CRM should improve its UI. Because it's all about the customer experience and how the customer experiences it, the internal customer is more important for CRM than the people handling the company. So, you get frustrated if you don't have a very good user interface and user experience."
"The tool took a lot of time to deploy."
"Siebel CRM can improve as an ERP and for a few corporate business workloads."
"Siebel is not user-friendly."
"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."
"The documentation needs to be improved."
"It is difficult to set up."
"I want Oracle to improve the tool’s UI with a vanilla application. I would also like to see an insurance broking vertical in their future releases. There are thousands of brokers who look for an insurance broking solution."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Compared to alternative solutions Oracle CRM is expensive."
"In my region, the tool is expensive. There are no additional costs in addition to the standard licensing fees of the tool."
"We were able to get a ten-year contract for a very good discount with our three platforms together with Oracle."
"The pricing for licensing is pretty expensive. If you need one particular feature it becomes expensive to have to continue paying for it."
"Every year, we have new users, and we get new licenses. It depends on various things such as the number of users and expansion of our business lines."
"On a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive, I rate the pricing a twelve. Oracle CRM is on the expensive side."
"It is not cheap. It is more suitable for big companies."
"There is a license required to use this solution. The price is reasonable for a CRM."
"Licensing fees are on the higher end and I rate them an eight out of ten."
"This is definitely an expensive product compared to others on the market."
"Oracle's pricing is quite high, and this cost can be a significant barrier, especially for smaller companies."
"Oracle Fusion Service is more expensive than Workday."
"There are no extra licenses, everything is included in the subscription, and the price is fixed."
"Oracle Fusion Service is a cheap and flexible solution."
"The product has average pricing."
"The tool is reasonably priced."
"The product is expensive."
"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."
"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."
