Useful employee and client monitoring, reliable, and good online support database
I would encourage people to use this solution. Sage CRM is effective because it allows for all communication, transactions, cases, opportunities, and leads to be accessed by team members. This means that even if an individual is absent, the team can still respond to clients, customers, or suppliers in a timely manner. As a result, there is a high level of efficiency in decision-making and time management with the use of CRM. It is highly flexible. I rate Sage CRM an eight out of ten.
ShirazShah - PeerSpot reviewer
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

"The Sage Accpac solution has definitely been the most valuable because the finance features are excellent."
"We have found the solution to be stable."
"The most useful aspect of Sage CRM is the capability to keep track of each staff member's communication and bill processing activities. The ability to track both customers and employees is a useful tool."
"It has been helpful for opportunity management and lease management."
"Sage CRM is flexible, customizable, and user-friendly."
"The solution's technical support is fast to respond."
"The part I like the most is the reporting."
"The most valuable feature is the case management system, which allows for the customization of workflows and saving solutions."
"The solution is scalable."
"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."
"Due to the many features that are built in from a CRM perspective, it is the best product we have."
"The solution's order management pack is quite fantastic."
"Siebel CRM has a strong database model, workflow and integration tools."
"It is easier to communicate with local companies within a large organization using Siebel CRM."
"The best thing about the tool is its data model. The underlying data model refers to how the data is stored in databases. We can also experience the ease of developing anything with the tool. We can customize any functionality as per any business challenge."
"Siebel offers a high level of customization which has been valuable. The solution also offers the ability to model complex products."
 

Cons

"Its user interface could be better."
"From an improvement perspective, the ability to make modifications to the product needs to be more user-friendly."
"With regards to monitoring the transaction with alerts, it could be better."
"Sage CRM doesn't have a dashboard for dynamic reporting."
"The product could be improved by modernizing the charts and analytics. Additionally, the export features and interactivity of the charts need enhancement."
"The scalability of this solution depends on whether you have a team that can configure it for scale."
"I would like Sage to improve their UI."
"Sage CRM would benefit from improving its interaction with email communication sites and social media platforms in order to gather more leads."
"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."
"The tool took a lot of time to deploy."
"The backend performance of Siebel could be improved as it is often slow. In addition, the Open UI is not that responsive."
"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 documentation needs to be improved."
"Siebel CRM can improve as an ERP and for a few corporate business workloads."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product is expensive."
"We pay for eight core modules and 20 user licenses and this costs us $1500 per year."
"Though my company has to have a perpetual license per user, there is a need to make annual payments towards the costs attached to the support my organization receives from Sage CRM's technical team."
"We have a yearly license."
"From an African perspective, the solution is relatively expensive."
"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."
"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."
"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."
