Featured Reviews

reviewer2758776 - PeerSpot reviewer
IT Consultant at a tech services company with 51-200 employees
Has improved process coverage and integration while offering strong analytics and user experience
The analytics and reporting functionalities of Oracle CRM are good. I would rate them eight to nine out of ten, but it slightly falls behind Salesforce, which is much more advanced in terms of meeting the process and analytics part. The integration of Oracle CRM with other Oracle applications is seamless; that's not a problem at all. The biggest advantage of Oracle CRM for me is the process coverage, ease of use, the UI, and obviously a good amount of analytics; these are the few strengths and seamless integration with any platform. The multichannel service support has an impact on my customer service operations.
Willem Lambrechts - PeerSpot reviewer
Managing Director at Drebbel
Offers the ability to create multiple pipelines and the flexibility in filtering and reporting
We do a lot of analytics and reporting ourselves. We don't necessarily use all the features that Pipedrive provides, but it's very helpful at least. It has streamlined our deal-closing process. We use it for everything. When we create a lead, we put it into Pipedrive. That lead can be converted into an opportunity, which we manage through our whole pipeline. This includes having all data related to the opportunity in one place. Once the deal is closed, we use Pipedrive to follow up on the invoices until they are paid. We also manage sales commissions and payments to our salespeople through Pipedrive.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Oracle CRM is a stable solution."
"The most valuable feature of Oracle CRM is the organization it provides."
"The most valuable features of the solution are that it is user-friendly and the fact that the database handling is much better, like any other Oracle solution."
"Oracle CRM is a versatile solution with many features and functionalities that makes it a suitable solution for many different business use cases."
"Oracle CRM helped us better understand the customer journey."
"The biggest advantage of Oracle CRM for me is the process coverage, ease of use, the UI, and obviously a good amount of analytics; these are the few strengths and seamless integration with any platform."
"It is a very good system and I believe that they are the oldest loyalty system on the market."
"What I think is best is to use the cloud, and it goes quickly."
"Anyone thinking about using this solution should definitely look at it and seriously consider it because it's a very good product."
"Pipedrive's most valuable features are that you can keep the whole information that's related to managing your sales process and you can customize it easily. The person that we have who is customizing Pipedrive is very junior in means of software development or process development. He can easily use it, anyone can use the solution. It has a very easy user interface to customize your processes and apply them to the Pipedrive process."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"The solution is very stable."
"The most useful thing is the ability to create multiple pipelines and the flexibility in filtering and reporting."
"The solution is pretty easy to use and intuitive."
"The most useful stuff for me is that it's very flexible with all the data structures...Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"Our primary use case for this solution ranges from using it for daily activities in sales to forecasting and KPIs and following up on every deal we are working on and every lease we are opening."
 

Cons

"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."
"Support: My Oracle Support service, enhancement, bug fix roadmap, and planning, quick and modern global cross-search is missing."
"Oracle should improve its hosted applications such as Oracle CRM with more flexible, effective and state-of-the-art enhancements, rather than abandoning them and leading its clientele using the hosted applications to Cloud applications."
"The initial setup was quite complex in the beginning, and once it was done, it was quite difficult to manage."
"It’s complex to customize the tool."
"Sometimes, we encountered stability issues."
"Customization is an area in the solution that takes too much time. So, it needs to be improved."
"Getting technical support from Oracle involved going through commercial layers, which could sometimes cause delays. The attention received depended on the client's status and spending with Oracle. Clients with significant spending received global attention and a corporate account manager, while those with lower spending had to work with a local account manager, which wasn't always beneficial. This process could lead to delays in getting technical issues resolved. I am not satisfied with its support."
"Pipedrive has some weaknesses against Salesforce."
"The integration possibilities with other systems could be better as well. We use it in connection with Octopus CRM, and there's room for improvement."
"Reporting capabilities of the solution could be improved."
"Pipedrive is relatively stable, but the performance is lackluster compared to other solutions in this space."
"Pipedrive has some weaknesses against Salesforce. The documentation of Pipedrive could improve. They need more qualified documentation because I had to fix my colleague's work to correct the reports because they did not find how they can do it, or develop reports. There are some misunderstandings about how to do reporting."
"The tool's APIs are challenging. It should also be compliant with HIPAA, FINRA and GLBA. The data centers should be within US so that they are compliant with regulations."
"You must pay more if you need an additional feature."
"Areas where the solution could improve are with the easiness of integration with other solutions, as well as the reporting capabilities."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"There are licenses needed to use this solution and they are managed by our product team."
"The costing for this solution is very high. It targets top tier companies. This solution can be split up into multiple modules to cater to the low tier customers."
"In my region, the tool is expensive. There are no additional costs in addition to the standard licensing fees of the tool."
"The licensing is on a yearly basis."
"Oracle is very expensive, but you have to pay to get this kind of scalability and database flexibility."
"The pricing for licensing is pretty expensive. If you need one particular feature it becomes expensive to have to continue paying for it."
"We were able to get a ten-year contract for a very good discount with our three platforms together with Oracle."
"The cost of a license with support is slightly higher than a regular license."
"Pipedrive keeps increasing the prices, which is becoming a bit annoying. It was reasonable when we started, but now they're increasing all the time."
"Pipedrive is relatively more affordable than other solutions."
"Pipedrive is the most cost-effective in terms of the balance between cost and features. I would take Pipedrive over HubSpot or Zoho CRM. It's well-positioned on the market."
"As of now, the pricing and value are quite good."
"The solution is affordable."
"We pay $1000 a month for the tool."
"On a scale of one to ten, where one is a low price, and ten is a high price, two or three. For us, everything is expensive because this is a startup, but for a normal company, it should be peanuts."
"The price of Pipedrive has been reasonable."
