Workflow-driven processes enhance sales efficiency and analytical insights
Oracle CX Sales is workflow-driven, aligning with best practices in our sales process. The efficient workflow eliminates the need for multiple entries; data flows seamlessly from sales accounts to projects to quotes. The solution also offers robust analytical capabilities, enabling us to analyze reasons for wins or losses and strategically adjust our approach.

Zoho CRM improves lead conversion with AI assistance but could have better technical support
Zoho Zia has helped our lead conversion process by serving as a private AI of Zoho CRM that assists in boosting lead conversation by analyzing customer data, predicting outcomes, and automating workflow follow-ups. Regarding how Zia helps with lead conversion, there's lead scoring and conversion predictions, sentiment analysis, and workflow suggestions. For lead scoring, Zia analyzes past lead conversation patterns and assigns scores to new leads, and high score leads get prioritized for faster follow-up. In terms of conversation predictions, Zia predicts the probability of lead conversion based on demographics and engagements, helping the sales team focus on the most promising leads. Another point is sentiment analysis, where Zia scans customer emails, chats, and notes to detect tones such as positive, negative, or neutral, guiding us on how to approach the leads better. For workflow suggestions, it recommends automated workflows such as sending emails and assigning tasks to agents, improving our engagements. Additionally, the conversational AI feature through Zia chatbot can interact with leads via website chat or capture details and push them into Zoho CRM automatically. The analytics and reporting features in Zoho CRM helped me understand sales patterns and customer behavior through standard reports that include pre-built reports for leads, deals, sales activities, and campaigns. We can customize reports as well, creating reports based on any module fields, and we can integrate with Zoho Analytics for direct capture of reports from our modules. We can merge leads reports to contact reports using SQL, allowing for effective sales funnel tracking to identify drop-offs and optimize conversation strategies. Auto-generated reports are also available for daily scheduling, ensuring that admin receives daily basis reports through automation. With advanced BI features such as drag-and-drop dashboards and predictive analysis using pivot tables, we can create insightful dashboards while pulling CRM and external data from sources such as Google Ads and Facebook Ads for unified analytics. The automation capabilities in Zoho CRM have helped streamline our organization's sales and marketing tasks by handling repetitive tasks such as sending follow-up emails, assigning leads, and updating fields. For example, if a lead score is greater than 80, it automatically assigns that record to the senior sales representative. There are also blueprint options to define the step-by-step sales process, ensuring every sales representative follows the same process. Automation includes assignment rules, lead scoring, priority load options, sales signals, macros, and territory management, which automatically routes leads based on geography, revenue, and industries. Additionally, deal stage automations trigger actions when a deal moves stages, such as sending a contract when it moves to negotiation. For marketing, there are tools for email campaign automation, behavior-based triggers, campaign to lead sync, and social media automations. The overall benefits I have seen from using Zoho CRM include centralized customer data, where all customer interactions are visible in one place, providing a 360-degree view. Improved lead conversations through AI-powered scoring and automation helps us focus on the right leads, with end-to-end sales automation managing tasks from lead capture to deal closure, thereby saving time on repetitive tasks. This leads to better marketing ROI, as we can track campaigns, ad spend, and lead sources, connecting marketing efforts to revenue. Enhanced collaboration through shared notes, tasks, and role-based access enables teamwork within our internal users and sales teams, contributing to customer satisfaction. Moreover, Zoho CRM is scalable and customizable, adapting to startups, SMBs, and enterprises with its flexible modules and fields. Lastly, it is cost-efficient compared to Salesforce and HubSpot while including a wide range of features.

"The lead and opportunity management features are valuable."
"Oracle CX Sales is workflow-driven, aligning with best practices in our sales process."

"The integration with other systems is easy."
"CX Sales is very intuitive - you just have to click a few buttons, and you see everything."
"It covers sales very well."
"The most valuable features are the lead, opportunity and task management as well as dashboard creation, reporting, contact management and campaigns."
"I like the solution's reminder feature which is helpful for big projects. There are many tasks that run at the same time. The reminder feature makes things easy for me since I use Zoho's mobile version as well."
"It is customizable. We have customized the CRM according to our needs."
"The best thing about Zoho CRM is that it is integrated with other Zoho applications."
"The most valuable feature of Zoho CRM is its ease of use."

"I like Zoho CRM's automatic lead assignment and automated workflows."
"Zoho CRM has been a really good product. From a basic CRM perspective, we use it to maintain the details of our company's customers."
 

Cons

"We have had some issues with integration between our old database and the Oracle CX Sales Cloud, but it has been working well for the time being."
"The address fields can be limiting on a global scale, with issues like long addresses and different styles for pin codes."
"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."
"It gives multiple entries for the same data because if you enter it once, it has to populate all other fields that are relevant."
"They could provide more integrated AI features as part of the platform rather than as a separate offering."
"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."
"CX Sales' stability isn't the best - it has a tendency to crap out and need refreshing, especially when creating quotes."
"Support is very poor."
"I'd like the solution to offer more integrations with other products."
"There was a challenge while deploying Zoho when we brought an API code. Because integrations "aren't perfect" for every organization."
"The support is not quite good."
"Sometimes, they don't understand what my actual needs are."
"The solution can improve by having a policy that allows us to integrate with the cloud."
"Zoho CRM’s customer service can be a little difficult to reach sometimes."
"It would be useful to have some way of mapping organizations that could add more value. If I have X company's database and am trying to create multiple contexts for different entities of the same company, I should be able to map it in such a way that I can see the organization chart."
"The support response time for this solution could be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It's expensive, but worth the money."
"The product pricing is reasonable compared to other solutions in the market."

"There is a license required for this solution."
"This solution is less expensive than Salesforce."

"The product costs $35 per user per year."

"Its price is lower than the other software."
"If you compare the pricing with SAP, it is well priced and you are able to pay as you go."
