Though it is good for the analytics part, it needs to be made less complex for users
The problems we faced with Adobe Campaigns in my company stemmed from the fact that it was very complex software. In my company, it did not allow us to expose APIs to do the stuff we require in our company. The aforementioned area can be considered for improvement in the product.

Has enabled seamless integration across platforms while supporting advanced analytics for customer insights
Microsoft Dynamics CRM doesn't provide solutions that allow you to transform easily if you have a heterogeneous mix of technologies or if your contact center is on analog and you try to digitize it. A lot of custom work is needed if you have to integrate heterogeneous technologies with the Microsoft suite, but if you are using the Microsoft suite, then it's quite seamless. Microsoft Dynamics CRM should add commercial models that allow smaller companies to use it because it can get pretty expensive. Better commercial options for smaller implementations may be helpful. There should be commercial options for smaller companies, as the overheads and costs of Dynamics can be quite high.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The tool helps store and manage our data. I don't need to be a pro in SQL, but I can still run queries and get the exact data I want. Some workflows help me get data from any table and send it to any platform without expert SQL knowledge. I can still export complicated data anywhere."
"Analytics was a good part of Adobe Campaign."
"It is a stable solution."
"Microsoft Dynamics CRM has the same features as Salesforce CRM, but what I like about the solution is that it's customizable. It's also one of the top-rated CRMs in the market. I also like that the coverage system of Microsoft Dynamics CRM is very, very broad, which means you can do a lot with it versus what you can do with Salesforce CRM."
"Integration with other Microsoft tools is a good feature of Microsoft Dynamics CRM."
"The most valuable features of Microsoft Dynamics CRM are the out-of-the-box functionalities, particularly those around sales, field service, and project service, which are really good for medium customers, and the flexibility allowing users to change functionalities to fit specific business needs."
"We are able to effectively follow up on requests, ensuring all customer issues are resolved in a timely manner. This solution provides a platform where there is visibility of all customer interactions, with efficient follow-up."
"The solution's return on investment is worth it."
"Microsoft Dynamics CRM brings the most value in terms of its ease of implementation."
"Technical support is completely good."
"The most valuable feature of Microsoft Dynamics CRM is the campaign feature."
 

Cons

"The problems we faced with Adobe Campaigns in my company stemmed from the fact that it was very complex software."
"The dashboard is perfect. The UI could be more user-friendly because the buttons are pretty small. Only someone who knows where to find them will easily locate them. New users might have difficulty finding options. Since I've been working with it for a while, I don't have that problem."
"Adobe Campaign needs to improve the UI because it is a bit old. Sometimes, the platform is a bit slow."
"The manufacturing module could be improved. I would like to see customization in the next release."
"The approvals component of Dynamics is complex. It isn't very easy to generate approvals between different departments."
"The performance could be improved."
"I am happy with it. If anything, its interface could be improved."
"Previously, I used Dynamics, but it did not suit me, so I changed the CRM last year."
"Dynamics could perform a little better, and it would be nice to save the filters I use frequently, so I don't need to do the same thing every day."
"My company's biggest challenge with Microsoft Dynamics CRM is wanting to market solely to leads without having to create a contact and link the contact to the lead. From a marketing standpoint, there's room for improvement in the lead process of Microsoft Dynamics CRM."
"Many customers feel the overheads of cost and ROI are not present, prompting them to consider migrating out of Microsoft Dynamics CRM or minimizing their footprint to manage costs effectively, especially in sectors such as banking and airline."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is cheaper than Salesforce. It is useful for small banks that want to trigger emails."
"It will be a bit expensive because it is an Adobe product."
"Dynamics CRM's pricing is fair."
"There is a license required to use Microsoft Dynamics CRM."
"The solution is not expensive."
"I rate the solution's pricing as a seven out of ten."
"It is a very comprehensive package. We get everything from Access to D 365. We get Microsoft's suite of tools. I'm not too sure about the pricing, but I can't imagine it being cheap."
"Microsoft Dynamics CRM is a little expensive solution."
"The cost varies on multiple factors including customization and the number of users."
"It's kind of pricey. It's about $50 or $60 per user."
