Integrated customer data has improved visibility and supports data driven sales decisions
The biggest friction point I have encountered with Oracle CX Sales has been user adoption, as sales teams are accustomed to using separate sheets, emails, or legacy CRMs, making it difficult to run and maintain data consistency. Data migration issues arise when customer data comes from multiple systems, leading to duplicates, incomplete, or inconsistent records that need to be cleaned. Additionally, the integration complexity of connecting with ERP, marketing, and other enterprise applications requires ensuring real-time synchronization, addressing varying business needs, and reaching agreement during workshops can take time. Change management is also challenging, as users often resist change and require additional communication and training to stabilize processes. If I could change one thing about Oracle CX Sales to make my workflow easier, it would be to simplify some of the configuration and customization projects. While Oracle CX Sales is very powerful, certain customizations and integrations can require advanced expertise, increasing implementation times and complexity. I would also simplify the user interface to enhance the experience for occasional users, as new users sometimes need additional training.

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

"The integration with other systems is easy."
"Oracle CX Sales is workflow-driven, aligning with best practices in our sales process."
"Oracle CX Sales significantly impacts the organization by improving approval workflows, reducing manual work, providing visibility of opportunities to management, streamlining sales processes, and enhancing quota forecasting."
"Stability depends on the implementation, but overall, it's quite high."
"It is stable and scalable, and their support has been very responsive."
"We've implemented Oracle Sales Cloud there and now they are using the application composers and groovy scripting within the tool’s capability to deliver an inbuilt quoting metric, which allows their sales team to alter estimates, update sales cycles, delivery costs, and monitor margin through a system."
"It covers sales very well."
"It covers sales very well, covers 90% of the customer's needs, offers good WhatsApp and SMS integration, and is pretty straightforward to set up while being stable and reliable."
"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."
"Anyone thinking about using this solution should definitely look at it and seriously consider it because it's a very good product."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to create timelines and custom fields."
"The usability of the solution is its valuable feature."
"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."
"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."
 

Cons

"Improvements for Oracle CX Sales include enhancing the user interface (UI) to meet modern standards. Many clients prefer a more optimized UI over the classic one. The market is moving towards better UI and UX design coupled with functionalities. Oracle has a tool called VBCS that can help improve the UI. With VBCS, the look and feel of the application can be completely transformed. For example, Oracle CX Sales has been implemented for Ferrari, a top automotive industry player."
"The biggest friction point I have encountered with Oracle CX Sales has been user adoption, as sales teams are accustomed to using separate sheets, emails, or legacy CRMs, making it difficult to run and maintain data consistency."
"The user experience of Oracle CX Sales is not as good as Salesforce. The UI/UX is definitely not at that level."
"The performance is bad."
"You can get disconnected if you do not have a strong, reliable internet connection."
"It gives multiple entries for the same data because if you enter it once, it has to populate all other fields that are relevant."
"The tool must allow developers to check logs."
"They should have a mobile app because the sales folks travel a lot. Rather than logging into an application on the desktop, a mobile application update should be easier for them."
"New features sometimes seem bolted on rather than being smooth."
"Pipedrive is relatively stable, but the performance is lackluster compared to other solutions in this space."
"We are using the lowest version of it. As we become more sophisticated, we might outgrow the tool, but there are features that are available in the higher-level versions, which I'm unfamiliar with, that might be able to meet the needs we would have in the future. They can maybe add some of the features to the basic version or make it more reasonably priced or free."
"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."
"You must pay more if you need an additional feature."
"Pipedrive has some weaknesses against Salesforce. The documentation of Pipedrive could improve. They need more qualified documentation because I had to fix my colleague's work to correct the reports because they did not find how they can do it, or develop reports. There are some misunderstandings about how to do reporting."
"The tool's APIs are challenging. It should also be compliant with HIPAA, FINRA and GLBA. The data centers should be within US so that they are compliant with regulations."
"In future releases, I would like to have a highly intelligent integration service where you can easily connect PipeDrive with other tools, even if you are not a developer."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is reasonably priced compared to other tools."
"Pricing is based on licensing. They offer three different levels: basic, advanced, and enterprise. While I haven't checked the pricing recently, they often provide good discounts on the product."
"It's expensive, but worth the money."
"The product is pricey."
"The product pricing is reasonable compared to other solutions in the market."
"It's more costly, and I would give it a two on a scale from one to five with one being expensive and five being competitive pricing."
"The price is reasonable."
"The solution's pricing is excellant. It costs 65 dollars a month for top tier plan."
"Pipedrive is relatively more affordable than other solutions."
"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."
"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."
"We pay $1000 a month for the tool."
"The product is expensive but provides valuable services."
"The solution is affordable."
"As of now, the pricing and value are quite good."
