SAP Service Cloud is well suited with its omni-channel capabilities giving the possibility to collect service requests from different channels like phone, e-mail or CTI telephony. It also has nice User Interface (when it comes to desktop version). On the other hand SAP Service Cloud needs to be definitiely improved in terms of mobile app, which is horrible and it has limited development possibilities.

Great for companies that sell on marketplaces and want to merge all of their communications. It saves our customer service agents tons of time, and it also connects easily with ChannelAdvisor. It would not be appropriate for a company that does not sell on marketplaces.

Cons
SAP
  • While SAP Service Cloud offers a wealth of features, its interface can sometimes feel overwhelming. For newcomers, especially those not tech-savvy, a more intuitive or simplified layout would be beneficial.
  • While it allows for some level of personalization, making deep customizations can be challenging. Given the unique requirements of our client's customer service, having more flexibility in tailoring the tool to our exact needs would be nice.
  • While SAP Service Cloud integrates well within the SAP ecosystem, it can sometimes be less smooth when linking up with non-SAP third-party tools. Enhancing these integrations would streamline our operations, especially when using other software tools alongside it.

  • I wish the filters displayed closer to the top of the inbox vs the bottom
  • The new and to-do tabs can be confusing at first
  • Agents must take ownership once in the message; it is not auto-assigned when you click into a message, so there is room for duplication.

SAP Service Cloud offers sturdy competencies for case control, workflow automation, and purchaser engagement. However, since our organization continues to be within the early assessment section, we have not but experienced its complete potential. Once fully applied and custom designed to our desires, the score can also increase as we investigate usability and integration with other SAP solutions.

I have found that sometimes issues reported to the SAP takes more time also they lack system support with respect to the priority . Also we don't see RCA for the issues raised. Also turn around time for the issues is not fixed as the support is global sometimes the issues float here and there.

Zoho Desk is the ultimate software for clear communication, but when we compared these two according to our needs, we found out that SAP Service Cloud is the best option for us. Since it provides everything in one location, Zoho Desk is somewhat lacking in this area. That was the reason for choosing SAP Service Cloud.

They were not even close to offering what xSellco has and the ease of using the platform. eDesk by xSellco is a great price point, is very easy to use, and it also integrates with ChannelAdvisor and Big Commerce, which was a determining factor for us. It also is an Amazon partner and ensures that they are adhering to all of the strict communication rules Amazon has.
