Have faced persistent configuration issues and performance delays that slow down large workflows
From a developer's perspective, it could be more open for programming language configurations. It is currently restricted to Groovy scripting. While UI and UX designs are open to JavaScript configurations, there are restrictions on certain functions that can be used. The solution could be enhanced to better serve customers when dealing with complex programs. The customer's websites face issues with loading properly, and response time gets longer when implementing larger workflows. This could be improved to achieve lower response times even with larger workflows involving multiple system integrations and complex architecture. The agent decay capabilities need improvement in future releases. Currently, there are some agent decay configurations available for developers to implement, but this area needs enhancement. Performance issues exist in the Sandbox area. The Sandbox is a trial area for configurations, but if work continues for a long time without publishing, it tends to get corrupted, requiring deletion and rework from the ground up. This has caused significant rework and effort multiple times. Technical support can be challenging to work with. When facing product-related issues or configuration problems, the support experience varies. Sometimes the technical support is knowledgeable and helpful, but often they redirect problems elsewhere and cause delays in resolution.

Integration capabilities facilitate efficient data management and enhance customer service, but the analytics requires improvement
The analytics capabilities in Siebel CRM have presented numerous challenges. Due to these challenges, we had to integrate Microsoft Power BI. The CRM analytics was not sufficient for our needs, given that we have four million customers and a thousand products. We are currently focusing on the upgrade and discussing with Oracle. If there have been improvements in the analytics side over the past few years, we are open to evaluating them. Currently, all analytics are being done on Power BI. The data is exported to our data lake, and Power BI is being used for all reporting and analytics. Even our customer 360, which is the core of any CRM, has Power BI widgets built-in through iframe because we could not accomplish this through Siebel CRM. The analytics component has been the main pain point for our organization, particularly due to processing time and performance with our large customer base.

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 easy to learn."
"The most important aspect of Oracle Service Cloud has been the support."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is that customers can easily understand it."
"Pretty much the entire suite is valuable."
"Previously, my clients used a smaller ERP system, not a major one. However, they have now transitioned to Oracle, which provides them with a more extensive range of options. Unlike before, it's now an integrated system that covers various aspects, including finance, supply chain management, and other functionalities."
"Oracle Service Cloud could improve the integration for older platforms."
"It offers a seamless experience with quick deployment—eliminating prolonged implementation and installation processes."
"With add-ins, customer portal, custom apps, and APIs, there isn't much you can't do."
"Siebel is easy to configure and comes with various pre-built industry verticals, so it doesn't require much effort. If you want to roll out Siebel in telecom or manufacturing, they have the verticals."
"Siebel offers a high level of customization which has been valuable. The solution also offers the ability to model complex products."
"The solution is scalable."
"If you have a proper business case and a large enterprise where you need to manage more than a million customers then it's a highly recommended solution."
"It is quite robust and flexible; you can develop almost anything you want, and when you go into the tools, you can do anything you want."
"It is easier to communicate with local companies within a large organization using Siebel CRM."
"The capability of bringing data into a single system, along with integrations and offering a single platform to handle multiple customer-related tasks, has been the most productive aspect."
"Siebel CRM has enhanced customer engagement for our organization, particularly through its robust data model and flexible features. One specific scenario where Siebel CRM excelled was in addressing complex client requirements. For instance, we successfully implemented a module for email responses, a feature that was not readily available or as robust as other CRM tools. Additionally, Siebel's open UI module allowed us to customize the user interface for one of our clients completely. This customization proved to be a major selling point for our company."
 

Cons

"The product's option to upload payroll data doesn't work seamlessly."
"When answer links are embedded within the ticket message threads, agents are taken to the customer portal; the development team should identify another option."
"When it comes to ERP Cloud, performance has always been an issue, especially when calling an API or a VIP publisher. I experience timeouts, which Oracle needs to improve."
"One suggestion I have is to shorten the IT team's response time. When we submit an ASR or similar request, it takes a while to receive a response, and this can be seen as a drawback."
"The solution’s reporting could be improved."
"Their mobile application for this product could be made more attractive as it currently has little functionalities."
"We built some custom code to make a few functions easier. Oracle needs to look at what the customers do and integrate them into the product."
"There are specific areas that would be beneficial to enhance and improve, especially its financial functionality, search capabilities, chat features, and content articles."
"The UI could be improved by being fully cloud native as this is what our customers are looking for. It would also be great to see what updates are coming up for release and for updates to take place automatically without manual intervention."
"It is not easy to set up. It's a bit difficult."
"Oracle needs to improve its support. The major drawback I've observed with Siebel CRM is that Oracle hasn't taken appropriate steps to improve it since 2019. We noticed a steep downfall because Oracle was slow to roll out upgrades like Open UI. By the time these upgrades were available, the market had shifted to cloud solutions, which competitors were already providing much earlier."
"However, there are areas that this product has not evolved at par with global industry trends, including the UX/UI and cloud capabilities."
"I want Oracle to improve the tool’s UI with a vanilla application. I would also like to see an insurance broking vertical in their future releases. There are thousands of brokers who look for an insurance broking solution."
"Siebel CRM should improve its UI. Because it's all about the customer experience and how the customer experiences it, the internal customer is more important for CRM than the people handling the company. So, you get frustrated if you don't have a very good user interface and user experience."
"Server may response very slowly if effective load balancing is not done."
"Very complex (User setup, Account imports, EIM on Opportunity, Marketing). In summary, we had to struggle a lot to get the software running with all relevant data."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"There are no extra licenses, everything is included in the subscription, and the price is fixed."
"Licensing fees are on the higher end and I rate them an eight out of ten."
"The product has average pricing."
"The tool is reasonably priced."
"Oracle Fusion Service is a cheap and flexible solution."
"Oracle's pricing is quite high, and this cost can be a significant barrier, especially for smaller companies."
"This is definitely an expensive product compared to others on the market."
"Oracle Fusion Service is more expensive than Workday."
"This solution is expensive compared to other solutions in the market. This makes it difficult to convince our customers to use it. The customers who are already using Siebel have thought about moving to Velocity or Salesforce."
"The product is expensive."
"The price of Siebel CRM depends on the usage of the business requirement. For large enterprises the price it's very good but if you are using it for medium scale enterprises, the price is very expensive."
"I think the tool’s pricing is exaggerated. Once you do the price sizing as per your business needs, you would find that the price of other solutions like Zoho CRM, HubSpot CRM, Salesforce CRM, etc. would be always the same."
"Its licensing is yearly."
