SAP Service Cloud helps us to understand the data insight and improve the processes. Ultimately, it allows us to understand the customer services. It has a user friendly interface which make the job easy to work on it. As a organization, all of these options increase our engagement with the customers.
  • Improve Customer support process
  • User friendly interface
  • Customisation
  • Product training can be made easily accessible
  • Integration can be made little easier
  • Configuration should be made more simple
Working in a supply chain industry, it is very much required to keep track of inventory at the warehouses. It helps me to keep eye of inventory level and updated about logistics activities. However, the team at the warehouses are not that tech savvy so I would believe it can be more simplified.

I used SAP Service Cloud to look at a bunch of data about our customers. This helped us see what they liked and didn't like. It was like having a map of customer trends. By using this information, we could make our services better and fix common problems before they became big issues.
I had to be careful with our money. SAP Service Cloud has a lot of features, but they can be expensive. Since we didn't need all of them, we found simpler and more affordable options that still did the job.

We use SAP Service Cloud to streamline and share the communication process with our customers.
Using a CRM software for this helps use share information in real time among the multiple stakeholders within the organisation, and to provide a database for best practices for new account managers.
Using a cloud based solution also allows us to delegate security management, which can be costly if done internally.
  • Clear user interface
  • Security features (MFA Authentication)
  • Integration with other SAP solutions
  • Lack of documentation for some functionalities
  • Lack of multi-language support (especially Japanese)
  • AI features could be improved
*Best suited for managing/streamlining communication with customers in B2B scenarios.
*Suited for businesses who do not want to build a proprietary solution/server infrastructure, since it is a fully managed cloud service.
*Scenarios where a business want to start using a CRM service without having to pay a high license fee for the start.

I've been using SAP Service Cloud for the past year and I must say, it has transformed our customer service operations. The platform offers a comprehensive set of tools and features that have helped us streamline our customer interactions and improve overall customer satisfaction.One of the standout features of SAP Service Cloud is its ability to centralize customer data and provide real-time visibility into customer interactions
  • Comprehensive Customer Data Management: SAP Service Cloud excels at centralizing and managing customer data. It provides a unified view of customer interactions, allowing businesses to gain insights and deliver personalized support.
  • Efficient Ticket Management: SAP Service Cloud offers a robust ticket management system. It enables support agents to create, track, and prioritize customer issues effectively.
  • SAP Service Cloud provides extensive reporting and analytics capabilities.
  • It offers real-time insights into crucial metrics such as response time, resolution rate, and customer satisfaction scores.
  • Many colleagues have reported that the UI is complex and not very intuitive
  • It should offer better out-of-the-box integration with other business apps. Improved integration capabilities
  • Better customization and configuration - Simplified customization process and more user-friendly
It is well suited for industries like ours where there is complex customer service and required more support needs.
Multichannel support is required on different Tiers. Customer expect support via different support channels - online chat, social media and phone. SAP can centralize these interactions and provide better customer support with unified view of customer inquiries

Leveraged the application to enable customers to easily communicate issues and ideas with our company as well as follow the progress of their service requests. The application reduced duplicate and inaccurate service requests and enabled our company to automatically route customer service requests to the right customer service representative.
  • Consolidated email, phone and website contact features into a single platform
  • Enabled the creation of an intelligent FAQ system
  • Stores records of all customer interactions
  • Making reports with multiple filters
  • Needs to segregate its offerings in a better way
SAP has the market's most complete end-to-end customer management solution that will definitely increase call center operating efficiency for any organization by providing a unified view of customer interactions, however I do not find the cost to be very user-friendly to SME.

SAP Service Cloud streamlines customer support operations by centralizing processes, optimizing agent productivity, and enhancing customer interactions. It helps businesses address service-related challenges and improve customer satisfaction.
  • Case Management
  • Analytics and Reporting
  • Integration Capabilities
  • Community and Self-Service Enhancements: Improving the community and self-service portal capabilities, including more advanced search functionalities and content management, could further empower customers to find information and solutions independently.
  • Offline Functionality: While the platform offers mobile access, offline functionality is limited. Enabling support agents to work seamlessly without an internet connection in remote or field service scenarios would be advantageous.
  • Integration Challenges: While SAP Service Cloud offers integration capabilities, some users have reported that integrating with third-party applications or other SAP solutions can be cumbersome. Improving the ease of integration and providing more pre-built connectors would streamline this process.
SAP Service Cloud is well-suited for large enterprises with complex support needs, offering omnichannel support capabilities for various communication channels. It excels in scenarios requiring centralized, knowledge-driven support operations but may be less appropriate for smaller businesses with simpler support requirements due to its complexity and cost.

allows us to track every stage of the customer journey providing visibility into any areas for improvement, and also if there are any existing bottleneck, for improvement in the customer journey and overall experience. Most importantly it gives everyone a good overview of the current issues from a customer's perspective, and allows us to take actionable steps to work on them
  • streamlining issue resolution
  • omnichannel support
  • direct customer feedback channel
  • internal UI interface
  • reducing context switching
  • ticket queuing
For all the baseline tools for service and case management, it is a good tool out of the box, however if you are looking for a lot of the advanced automation that hubspot or other platforms that have a service Hub can provide, it is currently in my opinion not capable on those fronts

It's a great CR% and tool to handle customer data. It monitors customer needs as work-from-home requests increase, addresses customer questions and/or issues, and integrates with our project management tool to provide our developers with prompt resolution. Its features, which include an all-arounder picture of the customer, process automation, and real-time insight data, allowed us to enhance our ability to give support.
  • It can streamline customer relationship and support operation with a lot of data
  • Automated agent assignment is great
  • Great and simple to use UI
  • Could get improvements in terms of security
  • Pricing can be a bit high
  • Performance issues for larger data sets
As all SAP products, they work very well. Working with SAP Service Cloud has given me the chance to find that it's a really practical tool for customer support. One of the features I value the most is the ability to provide a thorough view of customer interactions across several channels, including social media, email, and phone. This facilitates efficient problem-solving and quick access to client information. One excellent feature was the ability to allocate leads automatically. All we have to do is set up the employee map by nation, after which the leads can be assigned automatically. It implies that eliminating duplicates automatically cleans up our systems. Making campaign codes is simple.

I use SAP Service Cloud to streamline and enhance my organization's customer service operations. This powerful platform allows us to efficiently manage customer interactions, resolve issues, and deliver exceptional support. With its robust features for case management, knowledge management, and seamless integration with other SAP solutions, we can provide a personalized and efficient service experience. SAP Service Cloud helps us track customer requests, monitor service performance, and gain valuable insights from data analytics, ultimately improving customer satisfaction and loyalty. It's a valuable tool for ensuring our customers receive the highest level of service and support.
  • Track customer requests
  • Monitor performance
  • Provide quick and efficient customer support
  • Performance can be slow at times
Customer Case Management is something that SAP Service Cloud is well suited for. It allows us to monitor all complaints or requests from start to finish.

I would not necessarily say less appropriate, but If you have a large influx in volume, SAP Service Cloud does run into performance issues that can be very frustrating.
