Have faced persistent configuration issues and performance delays that slow down large workflows
From a developer's perspective, it could be more open for programming language configurations. It is currently restricted to Groovy scripting. While UI and UX designs are open to JavaScript configurations, there are restrictions on certain functions that can be used. The solution could be enhanced to better serve customers when dealing with complex programs. The customer's websites face issues with loading properly, and response time gets longer when implementing larger workflows. This could be improved to achieve lower response times even with larger workflows involving multiple system integrations and complex architecture. The agent decay capabilities need improvement in future releases. Currently, there are some agent decay configurations available for developers to implement, but this area needs enhancement. Performance issues exist in the Sandbox area. The Sandbox is a trial area for configurations, but if work continues for a long time without publishing, it tends to get corrupted, requiring deletion and rework from the ground up. This has caused significant rework and effort multiple times. Technical support can be challenging to work with. When facing product-related issues or configuration problems, the support experience varies. Sometimes the technical support is knowledgeable and helpful, but often they redirect problems elsewhere and cause delays in resolution.

Integration capabilities facilitate efficient data management and enhance customer service, but the analytics requires improvement
The analytics capabilities in Siebel CRM have presented numerous challenges. Due to these challenges, we had to integrate Microsoft Power BI. The CRM analytics was not sufficient for our needs, given that we have four million customers and a thousand products. We are currently focusing on the upgrade and discussing with Oracle. If there have been improvements in the analytics side over the past few years, we are open to evaluating them. Currently, all analytics are being done on Power BI. The data is exported to our data lake, and Power BI is being used for all reporting and analytics. Even our customer 360, which is the core of any CRM, has Power BI widgets built-in through iframe because we could not accomplish this through Siebel CRM. The analytics component has been the main pain point for our organization, particularly due to processing time and performance with our large customer base.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Oracle Cloud Services integrates well. It has lots of APIs to integrate with other solutions, like the PBX we use from Cisco. The ability to integrate Siebel data with Cisco PBX was nice."
"There is also a focus on maintaining efficiency, and it is a significant time saver."
"The solution changes the way clients work to make it easier and faster."
"I've seen positive impact from using Oracle Fusion Service, especially for HCM, where there's been a revolution from E-Business to Fusion; it's completely different."
"Multichannel communication can be enabled utilizing Oracle Fusion Service, including chatbots and AI chatbots."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is that customers can easily understand it."
"The product's most valuable feature is an efficient fusion of finance and HR modules."
"There is a focus on maintaining efficiency, and it is a significant time saver."
"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."
"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."
"The flexibility is very good."
"The solution's order management pack is quite fantastic."
"One valuable feature is that certain views can be adjusted as per our requirements, which adds a level of customization that is appreciated."
"It is easier to communicate with local companies within a large organization using Siebel CRM."
"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."
"The solution is scalable."
 

Cons

"The vendor must provide a user-friendly mobile application."
"The product's option to upload payroll data doesn't work seamlessly."
"We built some custom code to make a few functions easier. Oracle needs to look at what the customers do and integrate them into the product."
"I would like to see more AI usage, enhanced personalization capabilities, and simpler integration capabilities."
"The UI experience needs refinement to enhance user-friendliness."
"Oracle changed the means by which users are created in the system. I would like this to be easier to implement."
"The dependency on the dollar makes these products more costly during disruptions in currency parity, especially in countries like Pakistan."
"The user interface and user experience (UI/UX) need significant improvement, especially in the older on-premises versions."
"The tool took a lot of time to deploy."
"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."
"Currently, Siebel CRM is not helping the agent provide faster feedback to the customer."
"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."
"The solution itself is very heavy."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Licensing fees are on the higher end and I rate them an eight out of ten."
"Oracle's pricing is quite high, and this cost can be a significant barrier, especially for smaller companies."
"The product has average pricing."
"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."
"This is definitely an expensive product compared to others on the market."
"The tool is reasonably priced."
"Oracle Fusion Service is more expensive than Workday."
"The product is expensive."
"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."
"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."
"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."
