Pros
"I've found the customer 360 degree view to be valuable."

More IQVIA Orchestrated Customer Engagement Pros →

"It was comfortable setting up the tool.""The most valuable feature for me is the flexibility to consolidate the products.""The primary use case for us is lead creation and data management.""One of the main things is that the reports are very customizable. It is very easy and user-friendly to customize the reports the way the user wants. They can see the reports as per their expectations and change them accordingly.""The most important factor for recommending SAP CRM is its integration with the core SAP platform. Globally, most enterprises are using SAP as an ERP platform to manage their key business functions. SAP CRM has out-of-the-box integration with the core SAP platform. You can integrate your pre-sales and post-sales into the single platform on the SAP CRM very easily, and you can extend that CRM to your customers who can actually see what is happening to their orders—such as whether it is dispatched or not dispatched or at what stage it is—simply by logging onto the CRM platform.""The solution is highly scalable.""We are using the HANA Z database for CRM, which enhances the products we are currently using by making the system more efficient. Everything is connected to CRM, so we can use the data for analytics, sales forecasting, and data modeling.""The user interface is excellent."

Cons
"Because Salesforce is a cloud solution, sometimes we have issues with speed. We experience a lot of delays."

More IQVIA Orchestrated Customer Engagement Cons →

"Content management is one area where SAP CRM could use some work because we were seeking a CRM solution that could store BLOB data, like PDF and email data, which takes up a lot of space in the database. Recently, we migrated to a content server, but it would be nice if CRM had built-in BLOB data management because BLOB data is a challenge we've been dealing with since last year.""Our users are using it primarily from their laptop browser and very few are using it on their mobile because the mobile is not that user-friendly.""Previously, the SAP CRM used to use simple servers, but now SAP uses HANA. The problem with the HANA databases is their interoperability with other solutions. SAP CRM could improve by working better with other solutions.""In terms of stability, there are some latency issues.""Improvement is needed for SAP CRM's integration with Microsoft Teams and Outlook Its integration with Microsoft collaboration software, including Teams, Outlook, and SharePoint, is not very good. There are issues with synchronization between appointments in CRM and Outlook, as well as challenges with managing contacts, which creates problems.""The solution needs more flexible customization, tender request, and they need to think about some of the localization aspects.""When features do get added, we would like the product to notify us in a timely way.""It was not very stable. It was not a network problem because we were using tools that were not SAP. They were working well. But when I'm running the SAP, it's not working for us."
