Deltek WorkBook vs. Veeva CRM

My recommendation very much depends on who the colleague is. I would recommend WorkBook if it is an accountant, project manager or someone similar, and if the setup is done within WorkBook and passwords, etc. are being used within WorkBook only. I would tell IT Managers to avoid the application and think twice in terms of access management etc.

Good for larger teams with a lot of activities and therefore a good justification for the investment. Great for 'as above' + the companies looking to integrate Veeva CRM with other Veeva offerings, such as Align, Inslight, Zinc/PromoMats etc. Not so great for smaller organisations or those with more slightly more restricting budgets.

• The integrations on IT level are not great and should be improved.
• Change of IP's that's used for logins are being changed without reporting it to super users.

• There is no offline version of the app so it is hard for field staffs to access where internet connectivity is not strong
• Can be expensive specially for a smaller company as it is based on SAAS platform

Gets the job done, just not the sexiest.

Great implementation support, but haven't had many questions since.

• WorkBook is one of the cheaper solutions on the market, which, in the long term, gives a great ROI.
• We have spent a lot of time on support which is a negative impact.

• Oftentimes it is the field sales force that heavily influence the choice of the CRM solution. It appears that many of our field sales force prefer Veeva. Happy reps = more actively used CRM = clearer understanding of the reps' activities.
• Veeva offer 2 implementation versions - out of the box implementation (around 6-8 weeks to install) and 'all singing, all dancing' implementation (based on the length of your specific string). You can pick one and therefore influence your ROI accordingly.
• Again, as Veeva CRM is pretty much a de facto CRM solution, this is good for scalability if/when rolling it out across multiple regions/branches
