Has a user-friendly interface but performance is not up to scratch
I mainly use WebCenter for content management and publishing WebCenter's interface is very user-friendly. WebCenter requires a lot of design effort to upload content to our regular system. Its performance is also not up to the market standard, and its agility and adaptability could be improved.…

Using a unified cloud workspace has improved managing customer data, pipelines, and projects
Sometimes I would prefer Salesforce to run a little bit more quickly. My tasks are relatively easy, and I am not the person responsible for the company. There are some gaps that people responsible should address with ideas on how to improve. My role is not a leading point; I am a very basic user of Salesforce. My tasks are not complex, and I do not have a big problem with that. Salesforce could improve its speed. I would prefer not to analyze it in detail because it generally works well. I cannot say that I spend a lot of time waiting for a response from Salesforce, which would not be suitable for work. For me, this mostly works. There may be more experienced users with wider tasks who experience more problems. I am not in the details of how this works. We have a separate service department responsible for business automation, and those people know the details of how to estimate complexity, comfort level, and expense. I am just aware that Salesforce is running some integrations for us. All integrations are very important, but I am not in the details of this. If there are limitations, problems, or requirements with regard to integrations, I am not aware of them. With regard to setup, I feel informed because I am not setting this up. What can I complain about? It is pain-free. If you want, you can mention that sometimes my business would be great if Salesforce runs a little bit quicker in a soft manner. I do not have a strong component with regard to speed. Cloud-based software runs on different resources. The GUI might sometimes be a little bit slow. Salesforce is good for me. I am clicking on a link and catching it. There is nothing to install, and it is running. I think Salesforce is perfectly scalable because it runs very big datasets for many years and serves thousands of customers. I think it is perfectly scalable from my point of view as a customer. I think approximately 1,000 to 3,000 users are working with Salesforce in my company at the moment. Salesforce is a huge universe, and I cannot tell what should be improved because it has so many capabilities. Probably I am not aware of the majority of those capabilities. This is rather static for big systems, as customers are not aware of the majority of such big system features. I cannot say that I experience some lack of specific functionality. Usually, everything is in place, but I need to have the right permissions. So I cannot answer the question, as I am fine currently. Sometimes I feel the reporting could be more sophisticated and even AI-enabled. For today, the reporting is a good one but a classical one, and I need to build a report. I need to mention the data I want to run on, the filters to apply, and the commands to choose. Sometimes I have much more complex tasks. Generally speaking, I collect the data and know that the data is in the system. If one day they introduce an elaborated AI capability for me to tell Salesforce that I need to get this kind of data and then perform this kind of comparisons and checks to get this kind of result in that form, my ability would be very good.

Quotes from Members

"The business user has the capability to update content, look, and feel."
"These features are great components in WebCenter Collaboration for presenting various middleware and ECM functionalities to the end user in a single portal application."

"Oracle integrates well with other products to cover Big Data."
"In terms of scalability, it is easy to scale."
"This product is very good for scaling; it is easy to expand this solution and I think it is the best solution for all of the problems you might have with document storage."
"The main feature and idea of dynamically creating navigation, pages and portals are overall good and very valuable."
"It is a stable solution...It is a scalable solution."
"Salesforce provides opportunity management, including stage management. It offers basic functions to categorize opportunities as lead, qualified, or committed. I can share these opportunities with my peers and managers."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is the ability that the solution provides to store information related to our company's promotional campaigns."
"The tool helps us take over accounts to review past opportunities and notes. One of its main advantages is associating stakeholders and activity with customer contacts, providing an overview for team members. Its most valuable feature is sharing information with team members. The tool's ability to associate a company contact with an opportunity is a good feature."
"Salesforce works well with Talend."
"Salesforce has positively impacted my organization by helping us be more streamlined and have more visibility into what's going on; without it, it would be impossible to run an account properly."
"It's mainly about the technology and how you identify objects in third-party systems. That's unique, and not many platforms have it."
"We can manage opportunities easily."
 

Cons

"Rules for contents personalization, workflows, publishing content, and the satellite cache all have room for improvement!"
"I would like to see better performance."
"Initial setup was simple for standard things, but for customisation and third-party integration, it can get cumbersome."
"WebCenter requires a lot of design effort to upload content to our regular system."
"Its functions need more stability."
"If you compare it and other products side by side, you would not buy Oracle."
"This lapse is very bad for my company because I can't change the version of Word and downgrade."
"The solution should be offered in Persian. Right now, our version is in English, and there's a bit of a language barrier between the users and the product."
"There's potential for further improvements to enhance the complexity of processes, especially for B2B evaluations and detailed negotiations."
"The tool needs to improve its UI."
"The system is not particularly easy to use, but there are no alternatives available to me."
"The most valuable feature for me in Salesforce is the reporting functionality."
"Salesforce could provide more alerts and more notifications."
"The solution's marketing campaign management needs to be improved."
"The product's onboarding process is a bit complex since Salesforce provides detailed or in-depth reports, so it may take some time for users to learn to use it."
"I think sometimes it's just cosmetic features that can be improved, including the way information is displayed and speeding up navigation, but on the whole, I think Salesforce is a great user-friendly software."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price needs to be lowered."
"The price of this solution is considered to be high; however, when speaking with Oracle, it is possible to get discounts of up to sixty percent."
"WebCenter's pricing is on the higher side."
"Salesforce's licensing costs are yearly. It is expensive."
"The tool is expensive."
"The license is yearly."
"Salesforce is an expensive solution."
"Salesforce is a solution meant for enterprise-sized businesses because it falls under the higher pricing spectrum. For an enterprise-sized business, the product is reasonably priced."
"The modules are too expensive."
"Salesforce is overpriced."
"My company makes yearly payments towards the licensing costs attached to the solution. There is a need to pay extra charges apart from the licensing costs attached to the solution."
