Pros
"The solution is versatile and customizable.""I have used many Microsoft solutions and I am comfortable using the solution. Additionally, it is secure.""The control that we have of a process and the ability to have everything recorded from the beginning to the end of the process have been the most valuable features.""Compared to other partners, the most valuable aspect of Microsoft Dynamics CRM is its intuitive APIs, which are customizable and allow for the addition of multiple parameters and attributes. This feature enhances the purpose call in our services. Additionally, the learning curve for contact center agents using Microsoft Dynamics CRM is shorter than with other solution providers. Finally, the commercial aspects of Microsoft Dynamics CRM are superior to those of other solution providers.""Integration is the best feature of Microsoft Dynamics CRM. It integrates quickly across multiple apps and has a lot of APIs available that you can link to. It's very customizable, so we're able to tailor it to a client's needs.""The history of engagement with our customers, including all conversations, has been most valuable when using this solution.""Right now we're using the financial features, and we haven't tried the inventory. It's useful more on the financial side.""The most valuable features of Microsoft Dynamics CRM are its easy operations and functionality."

More Microsoft Dynamics CRM Pros →

"The integration with other systems is easy.""The solution integrates well.""the Oracle CX Sales Eloqua module is very useful.""CX Sales is very intuitive - you just have to click a few buttons, and you see everything.""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.""It covers sales very well.""It is stable and scalable, and their support has been very responsive.""The lead and opportunity management features are valuable."

More Oracle CX Sales Pros →

"The most valuable features are custom objects, custom workflows, triggering, and integration with other SaaS solutions.""The most valuable features of Salesforce Sales Cloud are opportunity management and metric integration.""I've found lead management to be the most valuable feature of Salesforce Sales Cloud. It helps capture, track, and manage leads throughout the sales process. The tool is easy to learn.""The best features of the solution are its performance and stability.""One of the most valuable features is the automation of Sales Cloud. It gives us the ability to easily—without the use of coding—create automation in order for us to do our work a lot more efficiently, whether it's notification reminders or certain automatic processes. There are a lot of things that Sales Cloud can do that, in my opinion, make everyone's jobs a whole lot easier and give them the visibility they need when they require it, when talking to customers and prospecting. It makes the account management process easier as well.""The most valuable features are the reporting and the custom codes.""The most valuable features of Salesforce Sales Cloud are increased productivity and business accuracy.""Salesforce is such a widespread software in terms of what it can do and its scope. Theoretically, you can run a whole company off of it. There are many valuable features, such as reporting and analytics. You can customize almost the whole environment is what appeals to so many companies the most."

Cons
"Better integration would be an improvement.""From my experience, the solution's tech support could improve with a quicker response time.""It could be less complicated for smaller organizations.""They should work on improving the solution's scalability.""The solution's interface has room for improvement.""Out of the box, the solution doesn't really have a desirable user experience. We have to set it up and customize it to meet our needs.""I am happy with it. If anything, its interface could be improved.""The solution could improve by having better integration documentation."

More Microsoft Dynamics CRM 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.""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.""It gives multiple entries for the same data because if you enter it once, it has to populate all other fields that are relevant.""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.""The tool must allow developers to check logs.""You can get disconnected if you do not have a strong, reliable internet connection.""The interface of Oracle CX Sales could be more user-friendly."

More Oracle CX Sales Cons →

"I would like to see licensing fees reduced in the next release.""The problem is the solution has gotten so big, it's very complex now. It's a bit difficult to figure out how to do certain actions.""The solution is secure. However, they could always improve on security.""It is very clunky. Its interface can be more user-friendly. There is always way too much information going on in Salesforce. It puts too much on your screen. It gives you every piece of information in the world, whereas I need less. It would be nice for it to be cleaned up a bit.""Sometimes they refresh the production environment, which can be a bit of a challenge.""I would like to see a more affordable licensing model.""The built-in functionality is a little dated.""The user interface could be more intuitive. I had some challenges with how to convert from a lead to an opportunity."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "We have to buy a separate license in order to implement the social listening feature."
  • "It's kind of pricey. It's about $50 or $60 per user."
  • "I am not the person who pays for Microsoft Dynamics CRM but it is expensive. I have been using Microsoft Azure, which Microsoft Dynamics CRM is built on, and I know we prepaid for the services. For me as a consumer, I do not think I can afford it, mainly because I am only learning how to use the AI and the rate which they charge is high. In general, Microsoft solutions are expensive and this is most likely due to the brand, this is something you expect. However, the price might be high but you receive a highly secure solution."
  • "There is a license required to use Microsoft Dynamics CRM."
  • "The price of the solution is good but could be cheaper."
  • "We have a three-year ELA with all our Microsoft solutions and often we had to do a true-up which was approximately $1,000,000. Additionally, we pay approximately $2,500 a month for support."
  • "Pricing for this software could be cheaper."
  • "The solution is open source and is free. However, it does require a Dynamics 365 subscription."
  • More Microsoft Dynamics CRM Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "The price is reasonable."
  • "It's more costly, and I would give it a two on a scale from one to five with one being expensive and five being competitive pricing."
  • "The product is pricey."
  • "The solution is reasonably priced compared to other tools."
  • More Oracle CX Sales Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "The subscription is on a monthly basis."
  • "The main issue is the price. Because it's SaaS, you will have to pay on a monthly or yearly basis."
  • "It is a premium product, so it is not the cheapest solution. I think if it's implemented well, and you're getting the soft cost benefits, the efficiencies, it's justified. But not if you're looking at just apples for apples as a subscription, without the complexity that you can achieve. It can deal with complex business requirements. Some other CRMs can't. But you certainly pay, so it's a premium-charged solution. It's one of the more expensive ones."
  • "I have found Salesforce Sales Cloud to be expensive. However, it is the number one CRM solution in the world. It is worth the money."
  • "The main thing is it is costly. Salesforce it is not cheap, it's costly. Some of our customers say it is a costly solution. So, we have lost some sale opportunities regarding the high price. This is the main thing that we are facing. It is sales per user and the user price is about $150 per month, per user for the Enterprise Edition. The other edition is less than this, but it is costly. A company that has 70 or 80 users would pay more than $8,000 USD yearly because it is cloud based."
  • "My understanding is that Salesforce is a little bit expensive, but in terms of the efficiencies, automation, and visibility, I think it's definitely value for money."
  • "Implementation and add-ons may be additional costs."
  • "Being license based, the license varies by type. The pricing is considered average."
