Featured Reviews

reviewer2758776 - PeerSpot reviewer
IT Consultant at a tech services company with 51-200 employees
Has improved process coverage and integration while offering strong analytics and user experience
The analytics and reporting functionalities of Oracle CRM are good. I would rate them eight to nine out of ten, but it slightly falls behind Salesforce, which is much more advanced in terms of meeting the process and analytics part. The integration of Oracle CRM with other Oracle applications is seamless; that's not a problem at all. The biggest advantage of Oracle CRM for me is the process coverage, ease of use, the UI, and obviously a good amount of analytics; these are the few strengths and seamless integration with any platform. The multichannel service support has an impact on my customer service operations.
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

"It's very easy to find any customer-related data."
"Currently it's meeting all our needs, hence the migration about six months ago that we moved from on-premise to OCI, to the cloud-based platform to add additional capacity and analytics."
"The reporting features are valuable."
"Case management, incident management, and request management features are valuable."
"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 product has very good quality to price, has a stable and powerful configuration, and allows your business to fulfill the required processes."
"My advice to others is they should use the solution, it is priced well and Oracle is a good company."
"The solution is smooth, easy to use, easy to customize and it has many features. Plus, there are regular updates."
"The usability of the solution is its valuable feature."
"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."
"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."
"The solution is pretty easy to use and intuitive."
"Pipedrive makes it easy to understand who I'm talking to at a glance. It has all the activities, node features, opportunity interface, deal interface, and time drive deals.The sales process is extremely simple, which saves me time and energy. I can send the document for e-signature and make the most out of my deals. I can automatically send emails and phone calls. You need to do only a little API programming. It offers massive flexibility. You can run an entire enterprise on the platform. The ease of use facilitates huge adoption."
"Anyone thinking about using this solution should definitely look at it and seriously consider it because it's a very good product."
"It's very flexible and we can really fit it into our business model."
 

Cons

"This solution is only available on-premises. It could be improved by offering a cloud/SaaS option which is more scalable."
"Oracle should improve its hosted applications such as Oracle CRM with more flexible, effective and state-of-the-art enhancements, rather than abandoning them and leading its clientele using the hosted applications to Cloud applications."
"Customization is an area in the solution that takes too much time. So, it needs to be improved."
"Oracle CRM can improve integration and performance."
"Improvements could be made in automating certain tasks, such as automatically notifying me via email when a customer has signed off on a proposal. Some of these features require payment, but including them in the basic package for smaller companies would be beneficial."
"Our infrastructure is set up for an on-premises deployment of this solution and I am concerned that the online deployment that we are moving to will not perform as well as our current on-premises storage systems. It could cause some problems, such as latency delays."
"There are a lot of batches and technical issues."
"I would like to remove all manual work and get the benefits of the function that Oracle provides without any manual interference or paperwork."
"You must pay more if you need an additional feature."
"Pipedrive is relatively stable, but the performance is lackluster compared to other solutions in this space."
"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."
"Pipedrive has some weaknesses against Salesforce."
"The platform could be even more robust."
"The automation process is challenging."
"The integration possibilities with other systems could be better as well. We use it in connection with Octopus CRM, and there's room for improvement."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is expensive."
"The pricing for licensing is pretty expensive. If you need one particular feature it becomes expensive to have to continue paying for it."
"In my region, the tool is expensive. There are no additional costs in addition to the standard licensing fees of the tool."
"We have annual licenses to use this solution that are quite expensive. For example, we have approximately four types of licenses and we have one annual contract for the number of licenses we use for Oracle CRM and the loyalty system."
"The cost of a license with support is slightly higher than a regular license."
"The licensing is on a yearly basis."
"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 product is expensive but provides valuable services."
"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."
"Pipedrive is relatively more affordable than other solutions."
"The solution's pricing is excellant. It costs 65 dollars a month for top tier plan."
"The solution is affordable."
"We pay $1000 a month for the tool."
"As of now, the pricing and value are quite good."
"The price of Pipedrive has been reasonable."
