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.

Documentation and API integration have room for improvement. We eventually switched to Zendesk and are much happier.
Help Desk functionality such as ticket tracking, hosting knowledge base, ticket routing, social media integration, API. But only if they work as advertised, which they do not necessarily. Yes, we learned to be more careful about selecting products and we ended up using a…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution is very easy to use."
"Technical support is very fast. It's customer friendly."
"My advice to others is they should use the solution, it is priced well and Oracle is a good company."
"Oracle CRM is used for sales activities; we can create customers, opportunities, codes submitted, reporting, and forecasting."
"It provides you an end-to-end offering but with heavy weight offerings."
"Case management, incident management, and request management features are valuable."
"The most valuable feature of Oracle CRM is the organization it provides."
"It's very easy to find any customer-related data."
"We eventually switched to Zendesk and are much happier with it."
 

Cons

"Getting technical support from Oracle involved going through commercial layers, which could sometimes cause delays. The attention received depended on the client's status and spending with Oracle. Clients with significant spending received global attention and a corporate account manager, while those with lower spending had to work with a local account manager, which wasn't always beneficial. This process could lead to delays in getting technical issues resolved. I am not satisfied with its support."
"In the planning area in order to calculate commissions the function could be improved. Currently, we are not using that functionality because it is very basic."
"Oracle CRM should improve in terms of AI capabilities and user interface design."
"It's not perfect with technical support from Oracle CRM, which is why we have managed services because it's far easier to get our issues addressed than going through tech support."
"My experience with Oracle when it comes to price negotiation was very bad."
"Sometimes, we encountered stability issues."
"An improvement would be to lower the price of the license."
"There are a lot of batches and technical issues."
"In a nutshell, don't."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product's pricing is manageable and flexible."
"It is not cheap. It is more suitable for big companies."
"The licensing is on a yearly basis."
"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 tool's pricing involves a monthly subscription fee based on the number of users. I believe it's around $20 per user initially, and then an additional five dollars per user if more users are added."
"We were able to get a ten-year contract for a very good discount with our three platforms together with Oracle."
"The cost of a license with support is slightly higher than a regular license."
"In my region, the tool is expensive. There are no additional costs in addition to the standard licensing fees of the tool."
