Excellent in customer management, lacking in product configurations

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Oracle CRM is being used to capture leads, create product configurations, manage customer data, order data, and include a basic workflow that also very importantly configures the products and services using a product configurator included as a standard Siebel module. Solutions then hand over the case to other business logic components (ESB and one specialized app) and collect results of the orchestrated tasks in one place. It also connects to the call center IS Avaya, and cooperates with a custom-developed mobile app, serving as a customer self-service tool.

Pros

  • Managing customer information, campaign information and interconnection with call center IS.
  • Good user interfaces out of the box, which can be heavily modified so this point does not hold in all installations.
  • Automatic updates do not require a full system restart.

Cons

  • Very slow product configurator, which can cause degrading performance if product definitions are not optimally configured or too complex.
  • Although recently improved, the current built-in BI and reporting capabilities are not on par with MS Power BI and similar.

Return on Investment

  • Until a certain point in time, the solution was responsive and provided support for productive work. With more integrations and a growing product base, the application started to be barely usable due to delays (excessive response times) and prolonged the product configuration tasks.

  • Oracle is a standard in business software and provides generally user-friendly formats and interfaces.
  • I like that this software has no frills. You get what you need and nothing extra. The templates are simple.
  • Oracle Support and the Support and Training Portal -- Very good tools and plenty of information to get you through.

Cons

  • Takes time to load sometimes
  • Speed and user-friendliness
  • Nothing major that comes to mind except the fact that there is always a room for improvement.

Return on Investment

  • Efficient response
  • Less manpower
