Oracle Siebel CRM
Score 6.5 out of 10
N/A
An enterprise grade CRM solution featuring customization and integration capabilities, and an open architecture for a personalized user experience. It can be deployed either on-premises or in the cloud.
HubSpot has a more customisable approach and significantly less errors than the CRMs I've used in the past. To be able to log in, and know that I can get on with my day is a blessing. Knowing you don't have to spend time each day troubleshooting recurring issues is a delight.
As compared to Siebel, HubSpot is more user-friendly and allows for easy system configurations & integrations. It allows for easy marketing capabilities which is absent in Siebel CRM, and also [the] user experience is more pleasant in the case of HubSpot CRM.
Siebel is suitable for a large organization as it has a comprehensive integrated functionality with great performance that suits customer service, marketing and sales. It supports complex security guidelines. It has complete development and deployment manager that can keep …
So there was a deal I was not able to find in all pipelines, basically in all deals view. Then I shifted it to a deals stages-wise view. It helped me understand how many deals I have in follow-up stages to keep following up on time. I will not miss any follow-ups, especially the ones that are very important to take. So that's what I like about HubSpot: they have views.
As an end user, I would not recommend this solution for enterprise deployment. Lack of support for modern browsers, slow performance, and poor searchability - these things set Siebel CRM in the rear of the pack. There was no great mobile solution either, so that can be bothersome especially for road warriors like myself.
Easy-to-use platform, simple navigation, and data entry that creates a good user experience.
Integrations with critical software and platforms across all arms of our business.
In-depth analytics that provides clear data on staff and organizational performance (i.e., revenue and sales tracking).
Logging of communication to easily refer back to previous emails/calls/etc, including call recording, which is also useful for compliance and training.
Great data model: the out of the box version comes with standard objects that support most of the industries business models
Ease of implementation: implementation is done by configuring standard objects or creating new objects; additional level of customization via script is also possible.
Migrations between environments is one area that could be improved, with tools to compare and move data elements (source vs target).
Easier ways to identify, through email or a web page, the health of the overall system (components, marketing campaigns, tasks, servers, etc).
The UI seems to be improved with the newer versions of Siebel, but I believe it requires a lot of new features. It seems that other CRM solutions that are cloud-based are putting a lot of emphasis on the Usability and presentation, things where Siebel may need to catch up...
To be honest there are some barriers due to which we are unable to use Hubspot at it's full potentials. The region that we work in has some restrictions that don't allow us to make calls or text which leaves us to just Email to the client.
I think the usability is great. I am able to train a new agent with zero experience in our process with HubSpot in a day or less. They can be proficient in using HubSpot quickly, the way I've designed it to work, in less than a week. I am able to load new leads, set calling campaigns, and start prospecting quickly. I've even had to call customer service for help, and they were super helpful.
Oracle Siebel CRM is an older Sales CRM, so many of it's features aren't as current as ones used today. However, it has a smoother and easy-to-use UI. We're glad that we can still access Oracle Siebel CRM because it's easier to find older information that we can't easily find in our Salesforce Lightning CRM tool.
Because when I needed help HubSpot responded immediately and provided me with the information I needed which enabled me to realize that HubSpot was even more customizable and easier to use than I thought! And I already thought HubSpot was very user friendly and easy to use, and then Support showed me how to manipulate the settings, columns and the appearance of the tool.
We no longer have support for our Oracle Siebel CRM. When we did, the support was slow to get some things fixed, therefore, there was a lot of downtime. Of course, this slowed down our overall productivity and increased our overall frustration with the tool. However, it would be nice if we still had some support with it since we still do access it from time to time.
If you've had any prior experience with cloud based marketing automation or group communication tools, you can do the implementation without paid outside support. Though getting to a SLA (service level agreement) would be best achieved with the help of a third party who can facilitate
Salesforce requires a lot of in-depth knowledge both to implement and to manage. I found it to be quite clunky and there was an additional overhead for any marketing functionality, that wasn't up to par. Whilst Zoho had some good features, in practice the CRM was difficult to manage, customer support was non-existent, and like Salesforce, required 3rd party support agents in order make simple changes. comparison, HubSpot allows the user to make many changes themselves such as adding and mapping properties, and also has excellent customer service. Combined with a well-rounded offer in terms of marketing, analytics and a good CRM, HubSpot stands out as the clear winner.
We also connect to Oracle Business Intelligence, which is not even an option of the list of products above (that's always encouraging when products are missing from lists!) This connects to campaigns in Siebel along with users writing reports based on data from Siebel. I don't think OBIEE stacks up that great with other systems because it seems to be lacking in reports, and those who can make them have to be quite technical. Oracle Database I think stacks up because of how robust and speedy (at times) it can be
HubSpot is great for tracking deals - we use the deal pipeline to understand the part of the lifecycle that each and every deal is currently in. It also provides good historical information.
The contacts section is great for storing and managing engaged users for our mailing list. We utilise this feature with the free version.
The customisable dashboard is a great feature that enables you to keep the most important information on the home screen at log-in
This has all my company needs for sales analytic. It has helped our call center and the sales portal become more lean and require less resources for their day-to-day.
We use its research and direct email capabilities and use it to target specific groups of potential clients. We have seen an improvement of nearly 20%.
We have clients who have used a few modules like bill summary, campaign management and customer information. Oracle Siebel CRM has helped them reap ROI within a year from going live.
