Featured Reviews

Sai  - PeerSpot reviewer
Ai/Data Analyst at CSD
Centralized customer data has improved reporting accuracy and now streamlines team collaboration
The best features of Oracle CX Sales that got used most were definitely the dashboarding, pipeline tracking, and reporting features. I appreciated being able to quickly see customer activity, opportunity status, and overall workflow process without digging through spreadsheets or separate updates. That visibility made day-to-day coordination much easier. The reporting side was also really useful, especially for tracking trends and supporting forecasting discussions. Since my background is more analytics-focused, I probably used the reporting and data visibility features the most. Another feature that helped considerably was centralized activity tracking because everyone could work from the same information instead of relying on scattered emails or manual updates. Oracle CX Sales has impacted my organization by improving visibility and better coordination across workflows. Before using a centralized platform, many customer updates, reporting, and tracking were handled manually through spreadsheets and separate communication channels. With this solution, the teams had a single place to manage customer information, pipeline updates, and reporting, which made collaboration much smoother. It also reduced manual reporting effort and made forecasting discussions more data-driven because the information was more organized and easier to access in real-time. From a day-to-day perspective, it helped teams respond faster, stay aligned, and spend less time chasing updates or reconciling data from different sources.
Jonny Katz - PeerSpot reviewer

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.
Sukanya Sen - PeerSpot reviewer

Field service has become more customer focused but asset-centric workflows still need improvement
Regarding the positive aspects of the product, the first advantage is that it is integrated with the CRM customer, making it highly customer-focused. I can easily connect with the customer, have agent AI to directly communicate with them, and customers can create a case without any intervention. Technicians can reach out to customers, making communication seamless. The knowledge base in the product definitely helps resolve customer issues. I use the knowledge base mainly for the technicians; they get the details, pre-work brief, and information on probable cases based on what the customer reports, including what parts they need to carry. Omni-channel support definitely improves customer engagement, but it has been available for a long time, so it is nothing new currently.
