Integrated customer data has improved visibility and supports data driven sales decisions
The biggest friction point I have encountered with Oracle CX Sales has been user adoption, as sales teams are accustomed to using separate sheets, emails, or legacy CRMs, making it difficult to run and maintain data consistency. Data migration issues arise when customer data comes from multiple systems, leading to duplicates, incomplete, or inconsistent records that need to be cleaned. Additionally, the integration complexity of connecting with ERP, marketing, and other enterprise applications requires ensuring real-time synchronization, addressing varying business needs, and reaching agreement during workshops can take time. Change management is also challenging, as users often resist change and require additional communication and training to stabilize processes. If I could change one thing about Oracle CX Sales to make my workflow easier, it would be to simplify some of the configuration and customization projects. While Oracle CX Sales is very powerful, certain customizations and integrations can require advanced expertise, increasing implementation times and complexity. I would also simplify the user interface to enhance the experience for occasional users, as new users sometimes need additional training.

Targeted outreach has boosted engagement and improves collaboration across the sales cycle
According to my experience, the best features Outreach offers are its helpfulness and effectiveness. It also offers a set of free trial and an intuitive, user-friendly interface. It offers sales engagement, revenue intelligence, and revenue operation functionality in a unified platform. Outreach leverages automation and artificial intelligence to help revenue leaders decrease the inefficiency and ineffectiveness of go-to-market activities and personnel across the revenue cycle. Outreach helps automate sequences and ensures consistent and timely customer engagement. I also appreciate that it provides clear analytics on opens, clicks, and replies to refine the outreach strategy. Additionally, the use of AI captures real-time meeting notes and action items, saving time and preventing missed details.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Account management is a very good feature, it is conceptualized very well, and we can look at all the projects under one account, and the data for those accounts remain there throughout."
"The lead and opportunity management features are valuable."
"The integration with other systems is easy."
"the Oracle CX Sales Eloqua module is very useful."
"We've implemented Oracle Sales Cloud there and now they are using the application composers and groovy scripting within the tool’s capability to deliver an inbuilt quoting metric, which allows their sales team to alter estimates, update sales cycles, delivery costs, and monitor margin through a system."
"Oracle CX Sales is workflow-driven, aligning with best practices in our sales process."
"The best practice business processes of PROMATIS helped us to implement an integrated process orientiented system."
"We observe that after implementing Oracle CX Sales, there is approximately a 15% to 20% improvement in lead conversion, a 20% to 30% increase in sales, and around a 30% to 40% reduction in manual reporting effort."
"Outreach is very good when engaging with sponsors to understand their expectations."
"When it comes to time saved, I would say approximately half an hour of an SDR's time daily, which is quite a significant improvement, and when it comes to meetings booked, especially from cold calls, we managed to book almost two times more cold calling leads."
"Outreach has positively impacted my organization by streamlining how we work individually and allowing us to see what others are doing."
"Outreach has impacted our organization positively because it has become a medium for us to reach out to an audience which we were not able to reach out to earlier."
"The solution facilitates Git workflow management, enabling me to handle various pull requests from team members. Additionally, I use these tools to deploy applications to different cloud providers, such as GCP and AWS, including AWS EC2 services. The automation tools also streamline testing processes for the code submitted by other developers."
"Outreach is also very cost-effective compared to Freshsales and other alternatives, and it has helped us achieve our marketing goals and reach out to more customers easily, improving my organization's productivity for the last five years."
"It's allowed us greater visibility into the number of touches it takes to generate a real opportunity as well as overall visibility to seller activity. We are getting better data on what messaging works when reaching out to prospects."
"Outreach has positively impacted my organization by helping us reduce the sales cycle from nine months to six months, which is very significant."
 

Cons

"The tool must allow developers to check logs."
"They should have a mobile app because the sales folks travel a lot. Rather than logging into an application on the desktop, a mobile application update should be easier for them."
"The biggest friction point with Oracle CX Sales is that sometimes it goes down."
"The performance is bad."
"It gives multiple entries for the same data because if you enter it once, it has to populate all other fields that are relevant."
"As someone who implemented Oracle CX Sales, one of my biggest friction points is the lack of customization features prior to the introduction of Redwood, which was less advanced compared to competitors such as Salesforce."
"The initial setup of Oracle CX Sales is very complex."
"They've been lacking in creating customization from scratch and in sales."
"Outreach crashed, especially when we were making cold calls. The call recordings frequently were not being recorded when they should have been, which was frustrating."
"Reporting at the 20,000 foot level needs to be improved. I want to be able to see how many emails are opened twice vs three times vs four times."
"Outreach can be improved by embedding a significant amount of AI and LLM models within the tool itself to fast-track or improve the productivity of sellers reaching out to their audience."
"Improvements can be made to accommodate sponsors who are not physically available in the same state. If sponsors are open to it, meetings could be conducted on an online platform to finalize deals more effectively."
"Outreach can be improved in several ways. Every now and then, it will have sync issues, especially with voice headsets."
"Outreach can be improved as analytics sometimes feel quite rigid."
"Outreach can improve because it can be overwhelming due to its robustness."
"Outreach can be improved because its AI features are not strong."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Pricing is based on licensing. They offer three different levels: basic, advanced, and enterprise. While I haven't checked the pricing recently, they often provide good discounts on the product."
"It's expensive, but worth the money."
"It's more costly, and I would give it a two on a scale from one to five with one being expensive and five being competitive pricing."
"The price is reasonable."
"The product pricing is reasonable compared to other solutions in the market."
"The solution is reasonably priced compared to other tools."
"The product is pricey."
"Outreach uses a request-based pricing model. It's pretty affordable. They offer different packages for various scenarios, depending on how you're trying to develop your platform using Outreach. I think that's a good starting point. If our organization scales up or needs more services from the tool, we'd consider upgrading."
