"Salesforce helps up keep track of candidates.""The reporting is easy and helpful.""The development cost, maintenance cost, everything will be drastically reduced - unlike traditional infrastructure where we maintain everything on our own.""You can capture all the contacts that relate to an account or business, including personal details.""When it comes to the lead management process, we track and evaluate the different stages and the challenges in each stage. It's so that the entire team has visibility of what's going on with each individual lead.""The tracking and monitoring of daily activities within each account is the most valuable aspect of Salesforce Sales Cloud. It allows for staying informed about ongoing activities, ensuring comprehensive visibility into the progress made within each account on a regular basis. Additionally, the plugins that are available, such as ZoolInfo are useful.""The most beneficial aspect of Salesforce Sales Cloud is my development life cycle will have been shortened.""I like that Salesforce is ERP agnostic. In the past and at different companies, I have implemented new or replacement ERPs. It's best in class. I like that it's a SaaS. I like that it can work on any device—any Windows, Android, or Apple device."

Cons
"The product's option to upload payroll data doesn't work seamlessly.""There are specific areas that would be beneficial to enhance and improve, especially its financial functionality, search capabilities, chat features, and content articles.""We built some custom code to make a few functions easier. Oracle needs to look at what the customers do and integrate them into the product.""The product must provide modules for operations management.""The UI experience needs refinement to enhance user-friendliness.""The dependency on the dollar makes these products more costly during disruptions in currency parity, especially in countries like Pakistan.""Oracle changed the means by which users are created in the system. I would like this to be easier to implement.""The user experience has to be much better."

More Oracle Fusion Service Cons →

"I don't like the way parent-child relationships work in transactions between records in Salesforce Sales Cloud. NetSuite is a little bit more user-friendly in that sense. Salesforce Sales Cloud requires that you build everything from scratch. I don't like that. It leaves a lot of thinking and solutions to the consultants and the process is more prone to errors.""The licensing price could be cheaper.""CI/CD is the biggest room for improvement. Deployment between environments and configuration.""Salesforce Sales Cloud could improve by allowing some customization of the processes with coding to avoid the problem of memory. When we use only flows in the process, which can become large flows, they are more complicated to debug and also for maintenance. It's better to invoke some Apex classes to make the process better.""The built-in functionality is a little dated.""The areas revolving around archiving and backup in Salesforce Sales Cloud are not as advanced as some of the other solutions in the market.""It is very clunky. Its interface can be more user-friendly. There is always way too much information going on in Salesforce. It puts too much on your screen. It gives you every piece of information in the world, whereas I need less. It would be nice for it to be cleaned up a bit.""The monitoring is very good, but it could be better."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "This is definitely an expensive product compared to others on the market."
  • "Licensing fees are on the higher end and I rate them an eight out of ten."
  • "Oracle's pricing is quite high, and this cost can be a significant barrier, especially for smaller companies."
  • "Oracle Fusion Service is more expensive than Workday."
  • "There are no extra licenses, everything is included in the subscription, and the price is fixed."
  • "The product has average pricing."
  • "Oracle Fusion Service is a cheap and flexible solution."
  • "The tool is reasonably priced."
  • More Oracle Fusion Service Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "The subscription is on a monthly basis."
  • "The main issue is the price. Because it's SaaS, you will have to pay on a monthly or yearly basis."
  • "It is a premium product, so it is not the cheapest solution. I think if it's implemented well, and you're getting the soft cost benefits, the efficiencies, it's justified. But not if you're looking at just apples for apples as a subscription, without the complexity that you can achieve. It can deal with complex business requirements. Some other CRMs can't. But you certainly pay, so it's a premium-charged solution. It's one of the more expensive ones."
  • "I have found Salesforce Sales Cloud to be expensive. However, it is the number one CRM solution in the world. It is worth the money."
  • "The main thing is it is costly. Salesforce it is not cheap, it's costly. Some of our customers say it is a costly solution. So, we have lost some sale opportunities regarding the high price. This is the main thing that we are facing. It is sales per user and the user price is about $150 per month, per user for the Enterprise Edition. The other edition is less than this, but it is costly. A company that has 70 or 80 users would pay more than $8,000 USD yearly because it is cloud based."
  • "My understanding is that Salesforce is a little bit expensive, but in terms of the efficiencies, automation, and visibility, I think it's definitely value for money."
  • "Implementation and add-ons may be additional costs."
  • "Being license based, the license varies by type. The pricing is considered average."
