We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The solution's return on investment is worth it.""Microsoft Dynamics CRM has the same features as Salesforce CRM, but what I like about the solution is that it's customizable. It's also one of the top-rated CRMs in the market. I also like that the coverage system of Microsoft Dynamics CRM is very, very broad, which means you can do a lot with it versus what you can do with Salesforce CRM.""The most valuable feature is that because this solution uses the cloud, you only have to install it and allocate it to a user, making it quite easy to use.""The most valuable feature in Microsoft Dynamics CRM is funneling.""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.""The product is user-friendly.""The most valuable feature of Microsoft Dynamics CRM is its ease of use.""The most valuable features are the integration capabilities with other third-party software. It has an easy user interface and in terms of security, it has permission-based access for different users."

More Microsoft Dynamics CRM Pros →

"The lead and opportunity management features are valuable.""The integration with other systems is easy.""It is stable and scalable, and their support has been very responsive.""The solution integrates well.""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 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.""It covers sales very well."

More Oracle CX Sales Pros →

"The most valuable features are the reporting and the custom codes.""I find the forecasting the most valuable feature. It's valuable because there are two types of forecasting, customizable and collaborative forecasting.""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.""Salesforce highlights what are we selling in different regions and which regions or areas offer opportunities. We are able to view sales by month, quarter or year.""It has custom fields and custom reports which can align to our business objectives and marketing focus.""The solution can scale massively. I've been quite impressed.""The most valuable features of Salesforce Sales Cloud are increased productivity and business accuracy.""The dashboards and dashboard customization are great."

More Salesforce Sales Cloud Pros →

Cons
"The options for customizing Microsoft Dynamics CRM are very limited or highly complex.""We had to do some customizations on top and it got a bit cumbersome.""Microsoft Dynamics could have better note-taking capabilities. It should have more preset options where you enter notes by clicking a box instead of writing them out.""The UI could definitely be improved.""The solution could have better dashboards and the Microsoft operating system could be more intuitive.""The mobile side of the product doesn't look that great right now.""There are more people using Salesforce. Therefore, there are more partners, and applications for it, and is easier to use.""Dynamic's management could be improved. The tech management should have better technical capabilities."

More Microsoft Dynamics CRM Cons →

"The interface of Oracle CX Sales could be more user-friendly.""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.""You can get disconnected if you do not have a strong, reliable internet connection.""Support is very poor.""The tool must allow developers to check logs."

More Oracle CX Sales Cons →

"The areas revolving around archiving and backup in Salesforce Sales Cloud are not as advanced as some of the other solutions in the market.""As a cloud solution with web browser, it's different than my classical way of thinking. It's modern, but for older people, maybe it's not that understandable. It could be more user-friendly, maybe with an option to switch between interfaces.""The solution's configuration could be improved because getting a purchase order and administrating the right fields can be a real headache for us, especially when the Sales Cloud system enters an error stage.""Compared to other CRM solutions, Salesforce is expensive. It is more affordable for enterprise users than for small businesses.""I would like if Sales Cloud had the flexibility to create or edit the forms used to submit requests. Right now, they're fixed, and users can't edit them. Only administrators have editing privileges, so it takes too long to make changes.""Salesforce is a powerful tool and you need specialists to create or to develop new functionalities. It is a difficult platform to learn to manage and you need years to know the whole product.""The solution's customer support is not so good.""It is a bit pricey."

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."
