Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Most of the apps allow you to try out the product before buying it. The trial period depends on the product and varies from a week to 30 days.""Marketing and Sales Lead, Forecasting, Campaign management.""There is very good documentation available and Salesforce offers good communication with its clients. It's very user-friendly and has a system that is easy to learn.""We used it for providing a 360 view of the customers from within Salesforce. So, a lot of data got presented there, for which we used Einstein Analytics. The Einstein Analytics dashboards were really great.""Salesforce is a phenomenal application. It's very diverse.""The solution is easy to use.""We haven't had any issues with stability so far.""The most valuable features of the Salesforce Platform are the ability to manage customers' data, many report filtering options, and consolidation."

More Salesforce Platform Pros →

"We can use a single channel to create an interface for iOS, Android, and other channels.""The best feature is the Kony Studio, which is the product that is used to develop interfaces.""It is a single platform that can cater to mobile and web development requirements, making it convenient for businesses looking to transition into the digital space.""The initial setup of Temenos Quantum was easy.""The most valuable feature is usability. You can develop components inside it and reuse them in different parts of your application, wherever needed. You can replicate them. There's also a Quantum Fabric on the back end, which provides a middle layer between your database and the third-party systems you need to integrate. It also provides the integration to handle all sorts of exceptions and timeouts on the Fabric. This makes it easy to troubleshoot errors coming from third-party APIs.""The main benefit lies in its exceptional speed of implementation.""It is an important solution for reducing the development efforts by developing a mobile application efficiently, in a shorter period of time, across multiple platforms, such as Android and iOS.""You can do rapid development across multiple platforms.​"

Cons
"They have some limitations as a cloud solution.""Some business functionalities could be improved.""Salesforce introduces a lot of products and sometimes rebrands them, causing confusion. They acquire products like W and retain their names, creating confusion in the market. This confusion isn't related to the product's functionality but rather its positioning and rebranding. For instance, what was once known as Community Cloud is now referred to as Experience Cloud. This can be confusing for business leaders.""When we're documenting information such as notes, and so forth, if we were to go back to the same case all notes go missing.""They need an easy way of getting details and then adding to it and then being able to do it in a more simplified way""I would like to have integration with Google.""Reporting could be better. Reporting is Excel-based, and it has sucked since the inception of the company. That's why I was excited about the fact of them bringing MuleSoft into the fold and Tableau.""What could be improved in the Salesforce Platform is the price. The platform is too expensive. The implementation time for the platform is also longer than expected, so that's another area for improvement."

More Salesforce Platform Cons →

"The technology of the solution needs an update. It is deficient in terms of connectivity.""Temenos Quantum is not quite stable yet.""There is definitely room for improvement, especially in the areas of AI, AR, and DR for mobile and web applications""Some features are only enabled for paid users. It would be much better if they enabled those features without having to pay. I would also like to see them publish information about future technologies on the Home screen under a separate tab. That would be an improvement.""There are many issues when integrating with native sides when building an Android application of the retail accelerator or an iOS application of the retail actuator. We have to incorporate on the native side of things, which creates a lot of issues. Temenos Quantum is a proprietary product and not open source. There is not much information available on the internet for developers to reference when solving issues. You have to contact the help desk, who will then give you an appointment and work to resolve the issue. In terms of what Temenos can do better, they can make the product more mature so that we do not encounter as many black holes when encountering an issue.""When developing our application, we also encountered certain issues related to delays and time-consuming builds.""They need to improve their tech support's abilities. They do have a good tech support, but it still requires improvement.""The UI lacks flexibility, especially regarding customizations. There are numerous issues at the fabric end, and working with the visualizer is extremely challenging. Basic development tasks require a high-end machine, and even clicking on an icon initiates a thirty-second processing time. The challenges mainly revolve around fabric and content."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "Costly, but it is the top product in SaaS/PaaS. Pricing is more for large to enterprise level companies."
  • "Pricing and license differ and depend on how much license you are purchasing from them."
  • "It is an expensive program."
  • "The licensing is per user per month, which we took out a contract on a long time back. It's really an okay price for what solutions are available and for how many features and what kind of functionality you get."
  • "The solution is a bit expensive."
  • "It is expensive. Licensing is on an annual basis."
  • "It is quite expensive. Its developers come at a premium cost, which makes it expensive."
  • "It is expensive."
  • More Salesforce Platform Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "​The price is too high. The annual cost for the Kony license is very high. Every year you have to renew it in order to maintain it​"
  • "This is an expensive solution, and it is the biggest challenge that we face when we present this platform to customers."
  • "The product is expensive. First, they must purchase the product, and then pay an annual renewal fee. The renewal fee depends on the product details and the license term’s length. Clients can buy licenses for five or ten years and pay for them upfront, or they can set up a yearly renewal cycle."
  • "Temenos Quantum is an expensive tool. Taking into consideration my company's use of Temenos Quantum for a bank, the costs attached to the solution ranged from 3,00,000 to 5,00,000 USD for building one application for the bank."
  • "It is expensive solution."
