Pros
"Oracle CRM integrates seamlessly because it's an end-to-end solution.""We are able to take back control of our client sales information and analyze it for the future to improve.""Case management, incident management, and request management features are valuable.""The most valuable features of the solution I like are its stability and customization.""It is a stable solution.""Oracle CRM is a stable solution.""CRM's performance is good, we've never faced any issues with it.""It has a wide variety of use cases."

More Oracle CRM Pros →

"This solution offers a good user experience. It is easy to learn and use, even for those who are using it for the first time.""It is an open the platform with API integration with other systems. Salesforce, it is not a software. It is very famous and available. When you are creating leads, generating leads, opportunities, it is wonderful in the reports as well. Dashboards are amazing.""The most valuable feature of Salesforce Sales Cloud is for teams the ability to do marketing on our page and to manage their marketing leads. You are able to close a deal and do the renewal. For the life cycle management for customer management, we use Salesforce Sales Cloud. The performance of the solution is good.""The solution can scale massively. I've been quite impressed.""It is a one-stop shop for running anything related to sales. You can do a lot of things.""It is a good platform that shows consolidation of information for our customer base.""The most valuable features are the reporting and the custom codes.""Salesforce's user interface is easy to use, and the reporting is good. It worked well with Excel, so I was okay with it. I don't know about integration with any other software because I didn't have to deal with them."

More Salesforce Sales Cloud Pros →

"Siebel offers a high level of customization which has been valuable. The solution also offers the ability to model complex products.""Siebel CRM is used for distributing information between systems, trouble ticketing, and case management.""Siebel CRM has a strong database model, workflow and integration tools.""Siebel is easy to configure and comes with various pre-built industry verticals, so it doesn't require much effort. If you want to roll out Siebel in telecom or manufacturing, they have the verticals.""It is quite robust and flexible. You can develop almost anything you want. You go into the tools, and you can do anything you want.""Siebel CRM is the number one CRM product in the world.""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.""Due to the many features that are built in from a CRM perspective, it is the best product we have."

Cons
"Oracle CRM can improve integration and performance.""This solution is only available on-premises. It could be improved by offering a cloud/SaaS option which is more scalable.""An improvement would be to lower the price of the license.""In the planning area in order to calculate commissions the function could be improved. Currently, we are not using that functionality because it is very basic.""Though Oracle CRM's support has a good reaction time, it needs to be better.""It’s complex to customize the tool.""The interface could be more user friendly. It is currently not intuitive, and it can be better. The onboarding process for the end users of this solution could be easier, and there should be a few more things for user knowledge and training. It takes a lot of technical knowledge to get used to it.""The initial setup is complex, it could be improved to be more simplified."

More Oracle CRM Cons →

"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.""I think the user experience could be improved. I would like the user interface to be a bit more user-friendly and modern.""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.""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.""There are things that could be improved with respect to file sharing. There is a limited file size.""The monitoring is very good, but it could be better.""Salesforce Sales Cloud is not as simple to use as Zoho. It requires some level of expertise before you can use it. However, you can easily learn how to use the solution as you go along.""The user interface could be better in Salesforce Sales Cloud because it feels a little heavy."

More Salesforce Sales Cloud Cons →

"The documentation needs to be improved.""The solution itself is very heavy.""Siebel is pricey compared to other CRM tools. That's the problem. Although it's a highly stable and functionally rich application, customers are not willing to pay that price for it. Customers can find CRM software that gives them similar functionality at a lower price. There are so many others on the market like Salesforce.""Siebel CRM can improve as an ERP and for a few corporate business workloads.""The UI could be improved by being fully cloud native as this is what our customers are looking for. It would also be great to see what updates are coming up for release and for updates to take place automatically without manual intervention.""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.""However, there are areas that this product has not evolved at par with global industry trends, including the UX/UI and cloud capabilities.""The tool took a lot of time to deploy."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "It is not cheap. It is more suitable for big companies."
  • "We were able to get a ten-year contract for a very good discount with our three platforms together with Oracle."
  • "We have annual licenses to use this solution that are quite expensive. For example, we have approximately four types of licenses and we have one annual contract for the number of licenses we use for Oracle CRM and the loyalty system."
  • "There are licenses needed to use this solution and they are managed by our product team."
  • "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."
  • "The licensing is on a yearly basis."
  • "The cost of a license with support is slightly higher than a regular license."
  • "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."
  • More Oracle CRM Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "The subscription is on a monthly basis."
  • "The main issue is the price. Because it's SaaS, you will have to pay on a monthly or yearly basis."
  • "It is a premium product, so it is not the cheapest solution. I think if it's implemented well, and you're getting the soft cost benefits, the efficiencies, it's justified. But not if you're looking at just apples for apples as a subscription, without the complexity that you can achieve. It can deal with complex business requirements. Some other CRMs can't. But you certainly pay, so it's a premium-charged solution. It's one of the more expensive ones."
  • "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."
  • "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."
  • "My understanding is that Salesforce is a little bit expensive, but in terms of the efficiencies, automation, and visibility, I think it's definitely value for money."
  • "Implementation and add-ons may be additional costs."
  • "Being license based, the license varies by type. The pricing is considered average."
  • More Salesforce Sales Cloud Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "Its licensing is yearly."
  • "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."
  • "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."
  • "The product is expensive."
