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.

Customization and automation drive effective user training and insights sharing
Recently, the price of SAP CRM has increased, which is one concern. Another issue is that sometimes we experience slow performance. Reports in SAP CRM itself can become very slow. Other than that, it is a very good CRM system. I am happy with SAP CRM because whenever we have requirements for changes or customization as per our needs, we get them, and the downtime is minimal. We are getting very good support from the incident team and the in-house support team who are responsible for customization. Some customer centers have moved to Salesforce, but I don't have any experience with Salesforce to make a comparison.

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."
"When we are using SAP CRM we receive more accurate results than using any other CRM system."
"One of the main things is that the reports are very customizable. It is very easy and user-friendly to customize the reports the way the user wants. They can see the reports as per their expectations and change them accordingly."
"The most valuable feature is real-time data. You don't have to go to the finance team for information. On one screen, you can see if stock is available and check the customer's outstanding balance, and then you can process the order. SAP CRM's integration with other applications is easier."
"The stability is good."
"We like that this solution has made our whole accounting function paperless."
"Its scalability is good."
"SAP CRM integrates well with SAP ERP which is useful."
"Compared to other systems, SAP CRM has been reliable, stable, and cost-effective for us."
 

Cons

"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 problems we faced with Adobe Campaigns in my company stemmed from the fact that it was very complex software."
"Improvement is needed for SAP CRM's integration with Microsoft Teams and Outlook Its integration with Microsoft collaboration software, including Teams, Outlook, and SharePoint, is not very good. There are issues with synchronization between appointments in CRM and Outlook, as well as challenges with managing contacts, which creates problems."
"It can be a bit more user friendly, to be honest. Sometimes there are too many apps options. It should offer better UX (user experience) to make it easier to navigate and easier to use."
"The navigation must be improved."
"We would like the coding system within this solution to be more straightforward when carrying out general entry tasks."
"Recently, the price of SAP CRM has increased, which is one concern."
"The B2C features of SAP are strong, but they are not very known to the public and companies. They must make it more known for B2C applications or B2C use cases."
"In the future, machine learning and artificial intelligence functionality need to be included."
"They could improve the product's analytics and reporting capabilities. Additionally, they could enhance its web interface speed."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It will be a bit expensive because it is an Adobe product."
"The solution is cheaper than Salesforce. It is useful for small banks that want to trigger emails."
"There is a license required to use SAP CRM."
"The product is costly."
"SAP CRM is an expensive solution and is the most challenging aspect of the solution."
"SAP CRM is not suitable for smaller businesses because it is expensive. The larger businesses would be able to handle the cost."
"SAP CRM offers a free trial for anyone wanting to test the product before purchasing it."
"We pay for the license yearly."
"They should reduce the price to target small businesses."
"The pricing from SAP is good but it takes time to realize the investment."
