When they secure many new contracts, the staff can be stretched thin to meet deadlines.

Bianca Gaida

I wouldn't say you go to Salesforce Sales Cloud for their customer support unless you purchase one of their premier plans, which is additional money.

Jonny Katz

Support requires a subscription and when taken, the service is pretty nice.

Sentiment score

5.7

Campfire Interactive excels in scalability and performance but faces expansion limits due to financial constraints and interface challenges.

Sentiment score

7.7

Salesforce Sales Cloud offers strong scalability, accommodating growth and varied business sizes, though some users face reporting and data challenges.

I don't have any concerns about scaling up for that. The concerns are more about implementation than scalability.

Tom Beach

In terms of scalability, Campfire Interactive rates as either a nine out of ten.

reviewer2715126

Campfire Interactive is generally reliable, but users face occasional performance and stability issues, especially post-upgrade and global access.

Sentiment score

8.1

Salesforce Sales Cloud is praised for its reliability, minimal downtime, high performance, and effective issue resolution, ensuring stability.

When it slows down so much, we've had to have Campfire Interactive shut down the system and restart it.

Sarah_Jones

Information Technology Manager at a manufacturing company with 10,001+ employees

If there is something that they feel is a bug or needs a fix that needs to be pushed through, we're able to work with them effectively to schedule those things and not be disruptive to the business.

Tom Beach

There's a lack of global support when we have issues.

Room For Improvement

Campfire Interactive needs UI improvements, better integration, clearer pricing, enhanced reporting, and effective technical support solutions.

Salesforce Sales Cloud struggles with integration, high costs, and usability; users desire better mobile, reporting, and AI features.

Currently, if we receive a quotation for 20 parts, we can enter one opportunity in our homegrown system that allows us to list all 20 parts within that single opportunity, but Campfire Interactive requires creating separate opportunities for each part.

reviewer2715126

Director of Sales at a manufacturing company with 1,001-5,000 employees

They are looking into AI to make longer projections possible and to also improve the quality of the data that we have in the system to calculate this LOP based on historical data or IHS information.

Bianca Gaida

Global Manager of Sales Excellence at a manufacturing company with 10,001+ employees

The issues are more related to technical service, specifically when we have an issue or problem with the tool, the communication gap, and the follow-through on issues that need improvement.

Tom Beach

If you're looking at other tools out there, for example SalesLoft or HubSpot, it's much easier to build those workflows and do automation.

Jonny Katz

VP of Business Operations at PeerSpot

Compared to AWS, it is slower, which could be a hindrance.

Sundus Ajmal

AWS Cloud Engineer at Accenture

With today's generative AI capabilities like ChatGPT, it should be possible to directly communicate with the software rather than navigating through the entire system manually.

Setup Cost

Campfire Interactive pricing is seen as flexible by some, expensive by others, with varied user experiences and structures.

Salesforce Sales Cloud is costly, but negotiating can secure discounts; value justifies pricing, challenging affordability for smaller businesses.

We had a one-time fee and now I think they are on a subscription model.

Kristin Schutter

Forecasting Manager at a manufacturing company with 10,001+ employees

They were asking for a certain percentage increase, and we said that was not acceptable. They were willing to settle on a different number.

Tom Beach

Market Intelligence & Sales Forecasting at RESRG Automotive

Campfire Interactive is on the expensive side, with approximately $100,000 to $120,000 in expenses.

Without negotiation, costs can become expensive.

NavinJacob

Chief Digital Officer at Cipher7

This happened for the first time because of the new CEO, Arundhati, who revolutionized pricing strategies, allowing discounts of 60-70% for Salesforce Sales Cloud in India.

Salesforce Sales Cloud is extremely expensive.

Valuable Features

Campfire Interactive streamlines sales forecasting with fast updates, SAP integration, and robust tools, enhancing accuracy and global business efficiency.

Salesforce Sales Cloud enhances productivity with customizability, automation, integration, data analytics, and efficient communication for optimal sales management.

Since it's actually in a system and not being maintained in a spreadsheet, it has improved both time and accuracy.

Sarah_Jones

Information Technology Manager at a manufacturing company with 10,001+ employees

Now everybody is using one set of numbers, and this has helped us improve our revenue forecasting projections by 50%.

Franco DAlimonte

Director, Business Systems at a manufacturing company with 10,001+ employees

What makes Campfire Interactive's sales forecasting feature stand out for me is that it is browser-based, making it a unified program solution for forecasting, viewing actuals, analyzing short-term trends, and using that information to create long-term strategies.

Its easy-to-navigate interface aids in delivering clear vision and organization, especially for sales and business management.

Sundus Ajmal

AWS Cloud Engineer at Accenture

Being able to pull reports in Salesforce Sales Cloud based on any of the fields that we have there and then building logic on those fields saves me time and also gives me visibility into what's going on with my teams across multiple departments, which is very helpful for us.

Jonny Katz

VP of Business Operations at PeerSpot

The Einstein Analytics and the inbuilt reporting are very useful for keeping track of pipeline movement.

Works very well for opportunity management and sales forecasting for the automotive industry

I've had recent discussions with the leadership team at Campfire Interactive about several issues. They're fully aware of my displeasure with certain things. Some concerns are not related to the tool itself, although there are some aspects that could be better with the tool. The issues are more related to technical service, specifically when we have an issue or problem with the tool, the communication gap, and the follow-through on issues that need improvement. They're fully aware of that concern, and they're doing things to address it. From a technical standpoint, there are some limitations within the tool that are somewhat out of Campfire Interactive's control because it's a complicated industry to try and have one solution that fits all vendors. There are times when we go to execute reports from their system, and the data does not generate as expected. When that happens, we have to inform the Campfire Interactive IT or Support group what the failure is. They have to research and come back to us. In the meantime, we have 2, 4, 6, maybe 12 hours of downtime where people around the world are trying to use the system. Though it affects less than 50 people, these instances are frustrating.

Uses data-driven insights to improve workflows and highlights a need for simpler automation tools

Salesforce Sales Cloud can be improved in several areas. First, the UI is an area for enhancement. Even though they've launched Lightning, it's clunky at times with page load speeds. It also needs to be made extremely more user-friendly. For new people using Salesforce Sales Cloud, there is a steep learning curve. Additionally, giving non-admins the ability to make changes on the fly is something that I feel is necessary. Currently with Salesforce Sales Cloud, you need to have a consultant. It's hard to build the flows or workflows. Making it easier for that end-user who's not so technically minded to help themselves is essential. I choose seven out of ten because I think you need a consultant or a consulting company to help you build it out. Certain changes should be made much easier and more user-friendly where an admin can do it. The automation processes need to be much simpler. If you're looking at other tools out there, for example SalesLoft or HubSpot, it's much easier to build those workflows and do automation.
