Featured Reviews

Patrick Ernsten - PeerSpot reviewer
Biz Opd Esd Strategist At Broadcom Inc. at Broadcom Inc.
CRM has supported contract tracking and customer insight while reporting remains secondary
I use Oracle software internally. I'm also selling project management software, automation software, and network operation software within the company to our customers. The Oracle solutions I use include making quotes with CPQ, making Oracle engagement clouds, and a little bit of CRM system functionality. I'm not the owner of it. I'm only using it to have admin access for my customers here. I'm not involved with any decision on what we're using at Broadcom for Oracle. We did a certain type of adoption in Oracle. We made a certain object for it, and that works pretty well. The only thing is that customizing and making extra fields takes a little bit of a long time. However, if you do customize it, it works out well for that part.
Willem Lambrechts - PeerSpot reviewer
Managing Director at Drebbel
Offers the ability to create multiple pipelines and the flexibility in filtering and reporting
We do a lot of analytics and reporting ourselves. We don't necessarily use all the features that Pipedrive provides, but it's very helpful at least. It has streamlined our deal-closing process. We use it for everything. When we create a lead, we put it into Pipedrive. That lead can be converted into an opportunity, which we manage through our whole pipeline. This includes having all data related to the opportunity in one place. Once the deal is closed, we use Pipedrive to follow up on the invoices until they are paid. We also manage sales commissions and payments to our salespeople through Pipedrive.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We believe that Oracle is the most powerful service module over other products."
"Oracle CRM is a stable solution."
"Case management, incident management, and request management features are valuable."
"Oracle CRM is very, very stable, one of the most stable products I've used in my career, and doesn't require much maintenance."
"Oracle CRM helped us better understand the customer journey."
"Oracle CRM's best feature is its ability to customize as per specific organization's requirements."
"Oracle Connect as a feature within CRM is valuable for establishing and maintaining customer relationships, enabling users to see customer details and interact graphically with relationships."
"During the demos, Oracle CRM's natural language search feature stood out to me. It departs from the traditional menu-based options, making searches more intuitive. Another significant feature is their Common Data Platform. Including an accounting package as part of the full platform was also appealing."
"The solution is pretty easy to use and intuitive."
"It is a stable platform."
"Our primary use case for this solution ranges from using it for daily activities in sales to forecasting and KPIs and following up on every deal we are working on and every lease we are opening."
"The most useful thing is the ability to create multiple pipelines and the flexibility in filtering and reporting."
"It's very flexible and we can really fit it into our business model."
"The most useful stuff for me is that it's very flexible with all the data structures...Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"Pipedrive's most valuable features are that you can keep the whole information that's related to managing your sales process and you can customize it easily. The person that we have who is customizing Pipedrive is very junior in means of software development or process development. He can easily use it, anyone can use the solution. It has a very easy user interface to customize your processes and apply them to the Pipedrive process."
"Anyone thinking about using this solution should definitely look at it and seriously consider it because it's a very good product."
 

Cons

"With Oracle CRM, people report some usual downtime and frequent outages."
"The interface could be more user friendly. It is currently not intuitive, and it can be better."
"I would like to remove all manual work and get the benefits of the function that Oracle provides without any manual interference or paperwork."
"I think Oracle CRM could improve its user interface and user experience to make it more engaging. Currently, it has a more traditional enterprise look, but I believe it could benefit from more catchy and engaging colours and designs to better engage with users and stakeholders. While the capabilities might be there, the interface may not be very inviting for first-time users."
"The product support, sharing the integration standards with major products or solutions and also for custom ones which am sure that will be a challenge for Oracle itself, support for REST out of the box will be required."
"Support: My Oracle Support service, enhancement, bug fix roadmap, and planning, quick and modern global cross-search is missing."
"The licensing is expensive."
"A specialized team is required for managing Oracle, which is extra overhead for the customer."
"You must pay more if you need an additional feature."
"The platform could be even more robust."
"The form builder works even though it has some shortcomings...Also, the forms don't have the ability to avoid or stop people from signing up if they don't have a corporate email."
"Areas where the solution could improve are with the easiness of integration with other solutions, as well as the reporting capabilities."
"Pipedrive could be more efficient. I want the management to be more transparent so it's easier to monitor the sales team's activities and results and do business forecasting. It would help them to improve the quality of the sales cycle."
"The automation process is challenging."
"Pipedrive is relatively stable, but the performance is lackluster compared to other solutions in this space."
"New features sometimes seem bolted on rather than being smooth."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"In my region, the tool is expensive. There are no additional costs in addition to the standard licensing fees of the tool."
"There are licenses needed to use this solution and they are managed by our product team."
"Shifting from traditional licensing and monthly maintenance fees to a subscription-based, pay-as-you-use model offers several advantages. This approach only charges me for my transactions, aligning costs with business performance. As my company grows, the software provider's revenue grows proportionally to the increased usage. The cost and suitability of Oracle CRM depend on factors like location, industry, and compliance needs. It may be more common for US companies to use Oracle CRM and European ones to use SAP."
"The pricing for licensing is pretty expensive. If you need one particular feature it becomes expensive to have to continue paying for it."
"It is not cheap. It is more suitable for big companies."
"Every year, we have new users, and we get new licenses. It depends on various things such as the number of users and expansion of our business lines."
"Compared to alternative solutions Oracle CRM is expensive."
"Oracle is very expensive, but you have to pay to get this kind of scalability and database flexibility."
"The solution is affordable."
"The price of Pipedrive has been reasonable."
"On a scale of one to ten, where one is a low price, and ten is a high price, two or three. For us, everything is expensive because this is a startup, but for a normal company, it should be peanuts."
"Pipedrive is relatively more affordable than other solutions."
"We pay $1000 a month for the tool."
"Pipedrive keeps increasing the prices, which is becoming a bit annoying. It was reasonable when we started, but now they're increasing all the time."
"As of now, the pricing and value are quite good."
"Pipedrive is the most cost-effective in terms of the balance between cost and features. I would take Pipedrive over HubSpot or Zoho CRM. It's well-positioned on the market."
