Integrated customer data has improved visibility and supports data driven sales decisions
The biggest friction point I have encountered with Oracle CX Sales has been user adoption, as sales teams are accustomed to using separate sheets, emails, or legacy CRMs, making it difficult to run and maintain data consistency. Data migration issues arise when customer data comes from multiple systems, leading to duplicates, incomplete, or inconsistent records that need to be cleaned. Additionally, the integration complexity of connecting with ERP, marketing, and other enterprise applications requires ensuring real-time synchronization, addressing varying business needs, and reaching agreement during workshops can take time. Change management is also challenging, as users often resist change and require additional communication and training to stabilize processes. If I could change one thing about Oracle CX Sales to make my workflow easier, it would be to simplify some of the configuration and customization projects. While Oracle CX Sales is very powerful, certain customizations and integrations can require advanced expertise, increasing implementation times and complexity. I would also simplify the user interface to enhance the experience for occasional users, as new users sometimes need additional training.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It was stable."
"The lead and opportunity management features are valuable."
"It covers sales very well, covers 90% of the customer's needs, offers good WhatsApp and SMS integration, and is pretty straightforward to set up while being stable and reliable."
"We observe that after implementing Oracle CX Sales, there is approximately a 15% to 20% improvement in lead conversion, a 20% to 30% increase in sales, and around a 30% to 40% reduction in manual reporting effort."
"Oracle CX Sales has significantly impacted my organization by making it easy to interact with the cloud, providing access to data through APIs, allowing us to get all the datasets we require, and integrating with our AI automation tool, making the process very easy."
"In terms of features, it is pretty much like other cloud solutions for sales force management, and it has definitely improved the way our organization functions."
"The best practice business processes of PROMATIS helped us to implement an integrated process orientiented system."
"the Oracle CX Sales Eloqua module is very useful."
"Account management is a very good feature, it is conceptualized very well, and we can look at all the projects under one account, and the data for those accounts remain there throughout."
 

Cons

"One area of improvement is the UI and UX, which could be more upgraded."
"The user experience of Oracle CX Sales is not as good as Salesforce. The UI/UX is definitely not at that level."
"The tool must allow developers to check logs."
"The data import process has grown a little since earlier releases. In the recent releases (8 and above), this process has improved but not much."
"Improvements for Oracle CX Sales include enhancing the user interface (UI) to meet modern standards. Many clients prefer a more optimized UI over the classic one. The market is moving towards better UI and UX design coupled with functionalities. Oracle has a tool called VBCS that can help improve the UI. With VBCS, the look and feel of the application can be completely transformed. For example, Oracle CX Sales has been implemented for Ferrari, a top automotive industry player."
"As someone who implemented Oracle CX Sales, one of my biggest friction points is the lack of customization features prior to the introduction of Redwood, which was less advanced compared to competitors such as Salesforce."
"The address fields can be limiting on a global scale, with issues like long addresses and different styles for pin codes."
"The biggest friction point or frustration I encountered with Oracle CX Sales is the complexity at times, especially when navigating deeper workflows or trying to customize reports and processes."
"Support is very poor."
