We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"What's most valuable in Genesys Cloud is that it's easier to use because everything is already built. Another valuable feature of Genesys Cloud is drag-and-drop.""Predictive engagement and gamification are valuable features with good inbound functionality.""Genesys Cloud CX has very good training material and training – instructor-led training, self-paced training, and documentation – things are very organized and helpful.""Genesys Cloud is an excellent platform.""The stability is really good.""What's most valuable in Genesys Cloud is that it's a complete cloud solution, so it's reliable and 99.99% available. It's also elastic. Genesys Cloud also has chatbots, which I find valuable.""The latest version and updates have been great. It really has everything we need.""Its comprehensive single application includes everything from reporting to IVR and workflows."

"It is quite robust and flexible. You can develop almost anything you want. You go into the tools, and you can do anything you want.""The tool's complaint management feature is very good. We used a CRM before, which lacked the integrations, so complaints had to be handled manually. With Siebel CRM, we have better integrations and can resolve complaints with a few clicks. When you're in the service industry, tasks matter a lot, especially when you have to access multiple systems to address issues. Being a bank, we currently have around 17 operational systems. It's not feasible to expect users to access them individually to make the necessary changes.""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 CRM's most beneficial aspects are the workflows. It has complete holistic workflows for a customer management system.""Siebel offers a high level of customization which has been valuable. The solution also offers the ability to model complex products.""The solution's order management pack is quite fantastic.""The best thing about the tool is its data model. The underlying data model refers to how the data is stored in databases. We can also experience the ease of developing anything with the tool. We can customize any functionality as per any business challenge.""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
"Issues can happen during technical troubleshooting, which is completely out of our hands compared to the on-premise solution.""Process automation in Genesys Cloud is an area for improvement. It's quite a new feature and still has room for improvement.""Reporting isn't the best feature of Genesys Cloud and could be improved. You can't customize reports and applications on Genesys Cloud.""One area for improvement in Genesys Cloud is providing users with more autonomy in troubleshooting and accessing logs.""The whole process of creating an agent is quite long and automating quite a bit of that would be very helpful.""I would like to see some of that functionality or features from Genesys Engage added to Genesys Cloud.""AI still needs improvement when it comes to predictive engagement.""The tool's pricing could be more flexible, and there should be clearer indications of consumption and fair usage policies."

More Genesys Cloud CX Cons →

"It is difficult to set up.""The backend performance of Siebel could be improved as it is often slow. In addition, the Open UI is not that responsive.""Siebel CRM can improve as an ERP and for a few corporate business workloads.""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.""The documentation needs to be improved.""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.""Currently, Siebel CRM is not helping the agent provide faster feedback to the customer.""The user interface, mobile application, and support could be improved."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "The cost depends on the type of license based on your organization's requirements and can get expensive."

  • "I rate Genesys Cloud CX's pricing a one out of ten."
  • "The pricing is a bit expensive."

  • "Its licensing is yearly."
  • "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."
  • "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."
  • "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."
  • "The product is expensive."
