Customization and automation drive effective user training and insights sharing
Recently, the price of SAP CRM has increased, which is one concern. Another issue is that sometimes we experience slow performance. Reports in SAP CRM itself can become very slow. Other than that, it is a very good CRM system. I am happy with SAP CRM because whenever we have requirements for changes or customization as per our needs, we get them, and the downtime is minimal. We are getting very good support from the incident team and the in-house support team who are responsible for customization. Some customer centers have moved to Salesforce, but I don't have any experience with Salesforce to make a comparison.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The solution's contract management and product hierarchy features of SAP CRM are the most beneficial for our business operations."
"SAP CRM is very much customizable as per our company requirements, such as adding different kinds of products and making codes."
"We use SAP CRM to improve service functions and processes to complete all the activities with clients."
"The most important factor for recommending SAP CRM is its integration with the core SAP platform. Globally, most enterprises are using SAP as an ERP platform to manage their key business functions. SAP CRM has out-of-the-box integration with the core SAP platform. You can integrate your pre-sales and post-sales into the single platform on the SAP CRM very easily, and you can extend that CRM to your customers who can actually see what is happening to their orders—such as whether it is dispatched or not dispatched or at what stage it is—simply by logging onto the CRM platform."
"SAP CRM has improved our sales activities by providing accurate information about the customers which assists the sales team to close deals."
"The stability is good."
"SAP CRM integrates well with SAP ERP which is useful."
"The stability of SAP CRM is good."
"It is deceptively simple but remarkably powerful."
"WORKetc is a great tool; complex and useful; maybe even too complex with a lot of customized options."
"Creating a streamlined process from sales through to completion of projects has made an immense difference to our operations."
 

Cons

"As SAP CRM is still in its pilot version in my company, and my team is still experimenting on it, there's little room for exploration, but its setup is not as straightforward, so this could be an area for improvement."
"SAP CRM could improve by being easier to use and customer-friendly."
"The implementation and integrations could be better. After we went into the production environment, we had some issues. Most of them were with the ERP integration. Many other issues were around the client's integrations between the ERP and CRM platforms. It could be more user-friendly. It wasn't very user-friendly initially, but now it's easier for them to use. Now, the users can use that platform better than at the beginning. We would like to see reports with more analytic features and artificial intelligence in the next release. For example, show more metrics and KPIs and more dynamic dashboards. Because the platform has some models, but it's not easy to use. It's a little complex."
"They have recently updated their user interface but they should continue to improve upon it in the future. Additionally, overall performance or speed of response times could be better."
"The solution has some serious issues at this point."
"The solution is slow."
"Previously, the SAP CRM used to use simple servers, but now SAP uses HANA. The problem with the HANA databases is their interoperability with other solutions. SAP CRM could improve by working better with other solutions."
"In terms of visibility of the data, there's a very limited set that we have access to and sometimes it's very difficult and not user-friendly to analyze from front end to back end. It's the biggest challenge, even if I'm working with an organization where we've implemented SAP."
"We are waiting for a new UI design, and also I think that not having a mobile version is a weakness."
"The UI needs to move forward to a refreshed version but this is in the works."
"It just feels that the current UI is a bit old school."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"There is a license required to use SAP CRM."
"As for the product licensing, we pay an annual fee. It's important to consider setup costs and licensing based on your organization's budget and needs."
"SAP CRM offers a free trial for anyone wanting to test the product before purchasing it."
"We have to pay a yearly licensing fee for SAP CRM, which is expensive."
"SAP CRM is an expensive solution and is the most challenging aspect of the solution."
"SAP CRM costs approximately a couple of thousand a month."
"The company has seen an increase in revenue."
"SAP CRM is not suitable for smaller businesses because it is expensive. The larger businesses would be able to handle the cost."
