"the Oracle CX Sales Eloqua module is very useful."
"Account management is a very good feature. It is conceptualized very well, and we can look at all the projects under one account. The data for those accounts remain there throughout."
"The lead and opportunity management features are valuable."
"Stability depends on the implementation, but overall, it's quite high."
"It covers sales very well."
"The analytics features in Oracle CX Sales are good."
"CX Sales is very intuitive - you just have to click a few buttons, and you see everything."
"The solution integrates well."
"Siebel CRM's most beneficial aspects are the workflows. It has complete holistic workflows for a customer management system."
"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 is used for distributing information between systems, trouble ticketing, and case management."
"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."
"The solution's order management pack is quite fantastic."
"Siebel CRM has a strong database model, workflow and integration tools."
"The solution is scalable."
"Siebel CRM is the number one CRM product in the world."
"The tool must allow developers to check logs."
"They've been lacking in creating customization from scratch and in sales."
"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."
"You can get disconnected if you do not have a strong, reliable internet connection."
"Support is very poor."
"They could provide more integrated AI features as part of the platform rather than as a separate offering."
"CX Sales' stability isn't the best - it has a tendency to crap out and need refreshing, especially when creating quotes."
"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."
"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."
"The solution itself is very heavy."
"The tool took a lot of time to deploy."
"Currently, Siebel CRM is not helping the agent provide faster feedback to the customer."
"The backend performance of Siebel could be improved as it is often slow. In addition, the Open UI is not that responsive."
"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."
"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."
