Proficient, comprehensive, and scalable
Pros and Cons
  • "It is one of the most proficient CRM tools out there. It is comprehensive and scalable. It covers most of the CRM activities, business lines, and business requirements."
  • "Their support could be faster. Like any other solution provider, in some cases, it takes time to get their response, and sometimes, they do not fix the issue in the first round. Therefore, we have to go through another round."

What is our primary use case?

We are using Oracle CRM for connecting to our customers and handling customer profiles and customer service. 

We are using its latest version.

What is most valuable?

It is one of the most proficient CRM tools out there. It is comprehensive and scalable. It covers most of the CRM activities, business lines, and business requirements. 

What needs improvement?

Their support could be faster. Like any other solution provider, in some cases, it takes time to get their response, and sometimes, they do not fix the issue in the first round. Therefore, we have to go through another round. 

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using this solution for a long time. It has been around 10 or 15 years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

It is a stable solution.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

It is scalable enough. We have around 1,000 users, and we continue to expand it to different business lines. 

How are customer service and support?

Their support could be faster. Like any other solution provider, it sometimes takes time to get their response, and things don't get resolved in the first round.

How was the initial setup?

You need specific skills and a technical team to install, configure, and implement it. Its installation is not a big deal, but its implementation is a big deal. Every day, we have a new requirement for implementation, and we are still implementing it. 

In terms of the number of weeks to go live, it can take six months, but even after going live, you keep implementing new features, updates, and enhancements.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

Every year, we have new users, and we get new licenses. It depends on various things such as the number of users and expansion of our business lines.

What other advice do I have?

It is one of the top CRM applications of all time. It covers most of the CRM activities. When you implement Oracle CRM, you will get good benefits.

I would rate it a nine out of 10.

Helps to mange and enrich the deals
Pros and Cons
  • "The most valuable feature is the ability to automatically enrich deals by connecting to APIs. This allows me to gather additional information about companies, number of employees, and data from the previous year. Having this information helps me understand the size of the company better and tailor my proposals accordingly."
  • "Improvements could be made in automating certain tasks, such as automatically notifying me via email when a customer has signed off on a proposal. Some of these features require payment, but including them in the basic package for smaller companies would be beneficial."

What is our primary use case?

My main use case for Oracle CRM is managing leads. I input all relevant information about the leads, such as company details, contacts, and pain points. Then, I schedule meetings to understand the company's needs better, provide demos or presentations if necessary, and negotiate proposals. If everything goes well, I aim to close the deal.

What is most valuable?

The most valuable feature is the ability to automatically enrich deals by connecting to APIs. This allows me to gather additional information about companies, number of employees, and data from the previous year. Having this information helps me understand the size of the company better and tailor my proposals accordingly.

What needs improvement?

Improvements could be made in automating certain tasks, such as automatically notifying me via email when a customer has signed off on a proposal. Some of these features require payment, but including them in the basic package for smaller companies would be beneficial. 

If I'm reaching out to a retail food company, I could request the solution to conduct research and provide me with the name and contact information of the marketing director

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using the product for seven years. 

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

I rate the solution's stability a ten out of ten. 

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

I rate Oracle CRM's scalability as a ten out of ten. My company has around 20 users. 

How was the initial setup?

The tool's deployment is easy. You need to plug in some APIs. I rate it a six out of ten. You would need one to two resources to handle it. 

What about the implementation team?

Oracle CRM's deployment was done in-house. 

What was our ROI?

You can get around 50 percent of the investment as ROI. 

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

The tool's pricing involves a monthly subscription fee based on the number of users. I believe it's around $20 per user initially, and then an additional five dollars per user if more users are added.

What other advice do I have?

I rate the overall solution a seven to eight out of ten.

An integrated software system that helps businesses manage their customer relationships
Pros and Cons
  • "Oracle CRM integrates seamlessly because it's an end-to-end solution."
  • "We noticed that sometimes it can be slow, and then we have to refresh the whole system."

What is our primary use case?

We mainly use Oracle CRM for customer information. When the client makes a call and complains about service dysfunctionality, we check the CRM to see if they bought in the data or exhausted it. The solution provides us with detailed statistics and based on that, we can offer a solution or refer that query to the billing application. 

What is most valuable?

Oracle CRM integrates seamlessly because it's an end-to-end solution. We use Oracle AIA as our middleware, as well as Oracle BRM, and the integration process between them went smoothly. That is something I found beneficial. 

What needs improvement?

We noticed that sometimes it can be slow, and then we have to refresh the whole system. That is something that can be worked on. 

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been working with it for five years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

The solution faced numerous issues mostly on the web logic side. I would rate it seven out of ten.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

It is scalable, but we use it on-premises currently. The scaling requires a lot of money, it is almost a project itself.

How are customer service and support?

Their customer support is okay, but it could be better. Response time is significantly slow. One time we faced a critical problem, number one severity and priority. After we reported it, it took more than two hours to get a response from Oracle. I rate it seven out of ten.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Neutral

How was the initial setup?

The installation of CRM was seamless and straightforward, but the configuration was not easy. After we installed the database and WebLogic on the RCU, the initial part was done. On the configuration side, dealing with integration with the web services is a challenge. We were lucky that our project was off-the-shelf implementation for telecoms, so most of the web services that we were going to use were already preexisting, and also, the team was highly skilled. But typically, the whole process is notably complex. 

What about the implementation team?

The deployment process lasted for about eight months before it was fully completed. It is very easy to maintain. 

What other advice do I have?

I would recommend Oracle CRM, as it is a user-friendly solution. I rate it eight out of ten.

  • "Oracle CRM can improve integration and performance."

What is most valuable?

The most valuable feature of Oracle CRM is the organization it provides.

Oracle CRM can improve integration and performance. 

In an upcoming release, they should focus on mobile functionality.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using Oracle CRM for approximately 10 years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

Oracle CRM is a stable solution. If we built it in an Android environment it would be even more stable.

How are customer service and support?

I have not contacted the support from Oracle CRM.

How was the initial setup?

The initial setup of Oracle CRM is easy. When we applied it in a test environment it was simple. The full deployment took two working days.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

There is a license required to use this solution. The price is reasonable for a CRM.

What other advice do I have?

We choose this solution because we use the Java language for our Oracle database and having our CRM be from Oracle would have beneficial integration to ensure stability.

My advice to others is they should use the solution, it is priced well and Oracle is a good company.

I rate Oracle CRM a nine out of ten.

Custom CRM that offers a wide variety of features and functionality to suit any business
Pros and Cons
  • "Oracle CRM is a versatile solution with many features and functionalities that makes it a suitable solution for many different business use cases."
  • "This solution is only available on-premises. It could be improved by offering a cloud/SaaS option which is more scalable."

What is our primary use case?

This use this solution for automatic tooling.

What is most valuable?

Oracle CRM is a versatile solution with many features and functionalities that makes it a suitable solution for many different business use cases. 

What needs improvement?

This solution is only available on-premises. It could be improved by offering a cloud/SaaS option which is more scalable. 

For how long have I used the solution?

We have used this solution for 16 years. 

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

This is a stable solution. 

How are customer service and support?

The support for this solution is not great. I would rate a three out of five. Our queries have taken a long time to be resolved so we no longer rely on Oracle support. 

How would you rate customer service and support?

Neutral

How was the initial setup?

The initial setup is straightforward. The deployment is much simpler compared to previous versions. It depends on the application and the type of industry that you have deployed in and the level of customization made to your existing application. An application with 5% to 10% customization, may need one or two resources to support 24/7.

What about the implementation team?

We implemented this solution in-house. 

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

The costing for this solution is very high. It targets top tier companies. This solution can be split up into multiple modules to cater to the low tier customers.

What other advice do I have?

If you are looking for a solution to be deployed on-premise and need a scalable solution for a Silicon Valley, telecon or banking company, I would recommend Oracle. This is because Oracle offers stability, plug and play functionality and integration to billing systems. 

If you are looking for solution for a medium-size e-commerce company or OEM, I would recommend Salesforce or SAP. Before deciding on the right solution, it is important to map out all of your requirements and the level of customization needed. 

I would rate this solution an eight out of ten.

Overall excellent functionality, good customization, and effective support services
Pros and Cons
  • "It is difficult to highlight the most valuable features because the system as a whole works very well for our loyal program. It is a very good system and I believe that they are the oldest loyalty system on the market. The service is very good, with many customizable options, and has a strong database to help us build our rules and point systems for the loyal program."
  • "Our infrastructure is set up for an on-premises deployment of this solution and I am concerned that the online deployment that we are moving to will not perform as well as our current on-premises storage systems. It could cause some problems, such as latency delays."

What is our primary use case?

We are using this solution for a customer loyalty program in an airline company.

What is most valuable?

It is difficult to highlight the most valuable features because the system as a whole works very well for our loyal program. It is a very good system and I believe that they are the oldest loyalty system on the market. The service is very good, with many customizable options, and has a strong database to help us build our rules and point systems for the loyal program.

What needs improvement?

Our infrastructure is set up for an on-premises deployment of this solution and I am concerned that the online deployment that we are moving to will not perform as well as our current on-premises storage systems. It could cause some problems, such as latency delays.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using Oracle CRM for approximately four years.

How are customer service and technical support?

We have support contracts and the support is good.

What about the implementation team?

We have a contract for the vendor to help with deployments.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

My experience with Oracle when it comes to price negotiation was very bad. They have a very poor approach to negotiation.

We have annual licenses to use this solution that are quite expensive. For example, we have approximately four types of licenses and we have one annual contract for the number of licenses we use for Oracle CRM and the loyalty system.

There are additional fees and contracts that are available. We have another contract that gives us support for deployment and improvements to our platforms and one other contract to receive support from our IT provider that has experience with Oracle CRM.

What other advice do I have?

I rate Oracle CRM an eight out of ten.
