Soumi Ganguly - PeerSpot reviewer
Senior Project Manager at Epicor Software
Automation has strengthened lead hygiene and reporting and drives faster sales conversions
One area for further enhancement is advanced analytics and predictive insights. While the platform provides robust reporting, deeper AI-driven recommendations such as lead conversion predictions, risk identification, and next-best-action suggestions could help the sales team prioritize opportunities more effectively. Improving user experience is another area; as organizations scale and workflows become more complex, simplifying configuration and creating more customizable dashboards could enhance adoption across business users. Additionally, expanding native integrations and reducing reliance on custom configurations for certain enterprise systems could streamline implementation further. Regarding support, I feel it should be more proactive, with spontaneous responses. Whenever I raised queries, I experienced longer wait times and had to wait for proper responses that were sometimes passed between multiple people. I believe when I ask a question, it should be assigned to the right person at the right time to reduce time consumption on both ends. LeadSquared automates many sales and marketing processes effectively, and there is an opportunity to strengthen its AI capabilities in areas such as predictive lead scoring, conversion forecasting, and next-best-action recommendations. AI-powered conversion analysis from calls, emails, and WhatsApp interactions could help identify customer intent, sentiments, and common objections, providing valuable insights for both the team and managers. For compliance and governance, a proper API should be created and integration should be structured to prevent lead leakage and data manipulation, which needs to be addressed by LeadSquared. I have noticed that it often does not provide accurate data and relies more on human intervention. When AI is integrated into any kind of software, it is expected to deliver the right outcomes and analyses. However, I have seen many cases where it provides only sixty-five to seventy percent accuracy, which I believe can be significantly improved.

Customizable design tools empower users to develop campaigns effortlessly
One improvement I would suggest for Oracle Eloqua is establishing data modeling capabilities where you can link various custom data objects to create multiple tables together, allowing access to data through SQL queries for better manipulation. I've found that when you get into very granular data analysis or complex segmentation, the current filter-based approach can become cumbersome. The filter wizard can only handle a certain number of conditions at a time, which can force you to build multiple 'shared filters' and combine them. An integrated SQL editor, or a more flexible data query tool, would allow for more efficient and sophisticated data manipulation
