The Sales Navigator has allowed us to increase our awareness of our potential lead pool and has allowed us to grow our customer base. The system is easy to use and allows us to have great control over the number of leads we can see and the number of leads that we can connect to. Using the system has also helped us in being able to manage the number of leads that we can send.

It is appropriate to have analysis, forecasts, and sales automation that allow the advisor to focus on other things because SAP Sales Cloud helps to capture potential clients, having a complete and detailed history of each one, their tastes and preferences can be validated, which helps to turn them into potential clients.

  • I love its ability to automate the entire sales process for us.
  • Another thing I love is how it combines data from different touchpoints to provide a 360-degree view of the customer.
  • What I like best about SAP Sales Cloud is the real-time analytics it provides for my organization.

Cons
LinkedIn
  • Sometimes it tells me I need to log into my LinkedIn profile when I've already logged in. It's weird. It seems to be when the email address is not found. Instead of just saying the email is not found, it tells me I need to log in. Just something I've noticed.
  • Sometimes I get this weird thing where I go to compose an email and instead of having it open all the way to the right, it opens all the way to my left. I'm pretty sure Rapportive is what's causing it. It doesn't happen very often but sometimes I see that.

  • One area of concern is the many data silos that are present within SAP sales cloud
  • While creating filters for accessing sales lead reports, the accuracy is missing sometimes.
  • The product is quite vast and a lot more learning material and knowledge base documents are required.

Rapportive is simple and great at what it does. Plus I anticipate they'll probably add more features in the future.

Product was mostly available. A couple accessibility issues did exist when sending API calls, and there was either no response, or a delayed response.

SAP's customer service is quick and efficient, with a response time of fewer than some minutes. In either case, you'll get instant help from the vendor or online forums. In addition, the vendor provides excellent global support for this tool. Like Salesforce, SugarCRM, etc., it's probably fine as a standalone CRM option.

The API documentation is good. Development team was able to implement in under two weeks, and normally we were told it was a 12-14 week process.

Alternatives Considered

LinkedIn Sales Navigators provides different services than most other products and has the unique ability to take advantage of LinkedIn's proprietary user data. That also comes with a drawback that the system is dependent on users to update their data in a timely and accurate manner in order to get the correct intel back to users. I'd recommend other products like Seamless.ai or MediaRadar for more accurate and updated contact information, but also to use LinkedIn Sales Navigator for Gmail for better market and company intel, timely pitching opportunities and seamless integration between Gmail and LinkedIn.
