Considered Both Products
Oracle Sales
Chose Oracle Sales
Oracle Sales provides much more data than previous tools I've used. While others may be more user friendly or provide more graphic context, Oracle Sales by far has the most impactful data that I use day to day. Being said, I think Oracle Sales can make improvements to make this …
Chose Oracle Sales
Oracle CX Sales was a comprehensive package just because of the modules offered. Compared to the products we evaluated and the in-house solutions we had, including maintaining data on excel and access databases, Oracle CX Sales was a breath of fresh air, considering we got a …
Chose Oracle Sales
As compared to other CRM, this happens to be one of the best and most affordable as there are some cons, but the pros are great, and I have seen an increase in sales by using this platform. It works great for the sales process from start to end, like lead generation to closure.
Chose Oracle Sales
I've used Salesforce and Hubspot. Every customer relationship management software has its pros and cons, but Oracle CX Sales (formerly Oracle Engagement Cloud and Oracle Sales Cloud) stacks up really well against the competition. Its data visualization tools are way superior, …
Chose Oracle Sales
Engagement Cloud could be a competitor but also work in tandem by pulling together multiple disparate types of systems into one cohesive platform. Salesforce is just a better product for UI, but Engagement may be better suited for the backend.
Chose Oracle Sales
Oracle Engagement Cloud (formerly Oracle Sales Cloud) is like most other Oracle applications in my experience. It is a robust, powerful tool at the core, but it's a little rough around the edges and requires frequent bug fixes, patches, etc. Our company ultimately decided to …
Chose Oracle Sales
Half the price for the same functionality made the decision a no-brainer.
Chose Oracle Sales
Cosential provides a better out of the box solution for what we need. It also integrates with Vista and Procore.
Chose Oracle Sales
We had an individual here who had a lot of experience working for Oracle. She was able to bring her knowledge from working with her peers and get it installed to where we were in a position to take advantage of the services. We started using this over 5+ years ago so it has …
Chose Oracle Sales
The belief was having all Oracle products would make it more seemless and easier to use. I am not sure that has been the case. Salesforce.com user experience is simply better and all the integrations could have been done with them.
Chose Oracle Sales
It has better reporting capabilities and allow for more customization in regards to switching layouts between security roles or conditions. Also allows for more flexibility with customizations written in code. However, it's not always as user friendly in terms of search, …

Chose Oracle Sales
I find lightning to be far superior in terms of ease of use, scrubbing, ease of access to information.
Chose Oracle Sales
Everything within Engagement Cloud is built by Oracle and Salesforce refers to its partners to fill the gaps.
Chose Oracle Sales
Oracle Engagement Cloud was the only software that was all inclusive. There is contact management, lead sharing, sales tracking, lots of various reports and a helpful dashboard that blew everyone else out of the water!
Chose Oracle Sales
We previously used a custom built CRM. Oracle CRM blows the old system out of the water.
Chose Oracle Sales
We evaluated SalesForce at the time OSC was selected. We found OSC to be a better fit for our business needs.
Chose Oracle Sales
I have worked with X2CRM and have been exposed to Accelo, Salesforce and MS Dynamics. I feel Oracle Sales Cloud is the standard to be met for SMB customers looking to scale quickly and efficiently. I believe it is the best solution for Mid-market and enterprise customer because …
Chose Oracle Sales
From a user perspective, Oracle Sales Cloud stacks up very well to SalesForce. The amount of native pre-built connectors for the different pillars is attractive from a setup perspective as well as a pricing perspective. The mobility of Oracle Sales Cloud trumps the SFDC …
Chose Oracle Sales
We're currently using a heavily customized instance of Oracle CRM OnDemand, which is quickly reaching the end of its effective life. We also evaluate salesforce.com before selecting Oracle Sales cloud, largely for financial (rather than functionality) reasons.
Chose Oracle Sales
SFDC requires a lot of apps added and the reporting functionality out of the box is not as easy to use.
Chose Oracle Sales
This is Oracle's new and best of breed CRM

Clients considered JDEdwards solution for sales because they had used it before moving to Oracle Fusion Cloud but the unreliability of JDEdwards was a big red flag which prompted them to move to Oracle Sales Cloud.

Oracle Sales Cloud was our preference for a CRM cloud system because it had great additional features that we also wanted to utilise in addition to the traditional CRM. We really liked the lead tracking and the incentive sales compensation feature. Several department heads …

Oracle Service is a powerful service where the customers or clients can be evaluated in-depth. It provides a unified way where the customers can also raise complaints that can further be evaluated or resolved by the monitoring team to enhance the product. Also, it offers a lot …
Chose Oracle Service
Here we have several Oracle stack Products but the new things are hard to integrate. That was the main reason .
Chose Oracle Service
Oracle Service is slightly on the expensive side in terms of pricing but it offers powerful features as well. As compared to Intercom, Oracle Service is suitable for large companies, and the support in the case of Intercom is available only by phone and email while in the case …
Chose Oracle Service
Oracle Service seems to have the advantage of providing many opportunities to companies if they have the right knowledge base. It opened our eyes to what possibilities were afforded to us by exploring the different options that existed. None of the options seemed to be more …
Chose Oracle Service
Oracle Service is the best fit for companies already using other Oracle products. Though Salesforce Service Cloud is equally good in most aspects, Oracle is once again an ecosystem of products like Oracle EBS where seamless integration is possible. Most of our clients were …
Chose Oracle Service
Not sure how to really answer this. We are predominantly a PeopleSoft shop, but that doesn't appear in your list.
Chose Oracle Service
Mainly because of the name Oracle, it's a world leading company backed by a large user community in a broad range of different products. We needed the certainty of good support team behind the product and Oracle could deliver on this much better.
Chose Oracle Service
I have not used or evaluated any other products like Oracle Service Cloud, but I plan to experiment with Salesforce Service Cloud in the near future.
Chose Oracle Service
Java solution would be built from scratch, while the Oracle Service Cloud is SaaS that can be customized to fit the exact needs.
Chose Oracle Service
Oracle Service Cloud offers a wide range of communication channels that optimize and innovate the company's communication process and management with our customers.
Chose Oracle Service
I was not a part of the company when it was selected. Newer software has come out since but OSC had become so integrated with our ecosystem of software that it would be difficult to get rid of now. It has become more of a necessity than a desire to have. If possible down the …
Chose Oracle Service
Oracle is better suited for my company’s needs.
Chose Oracle Service
I was not part of the team to make the selection. I worked as a user of both products, and from that point of view can say that Oracle Service Cloud offers a better GUI.
Chose Oracle Service
Service Cloud seems more agile
Chose Oracle Service
Oracle Service Cloud is easier and more intuitive to use. Help feature is available at every screen.
Chose Oracle Service
We feel the omnichannel elements, in particular, are far superior, and these were important for our needs.
Chose Oracle Service
Worked with PeopleSoft CRM in the past, and the old version of Oracle. I love the current one the most.
Chose Oracle Service
We opted immediately for Service Cloud because we anticipated simple integration with our other Oracle products. We have not achieved integration yet.

In the market for Sales and Service, Oracle CX is the best especially in integrating with other systems. It has a stable and huge database that can handle a bunch of data. It gathers all data of customers, accounts, leads, opportunities, service requests in one place and related in a good way. The tools used for reports and analytics as BI is strong and great to use also it is not hard[.]

Oracle Right (Oracle Service Cloud) was an important evolution in the group's ombudsman channel management processes. We brought the Oracle Service Cloud to digitize the processes for capturing and managing the group's ombudsman channel, no longer operating manually (MS Excel).

Oracle Service Cloud (Right Now) brought about an important evolution in the management processes of the group's ombudsman channel, where activities that were performed manually, repetitively and with risk of errors, are now operated by the Right Now platform itself, whether by API, or by automation of the tool.

Pros
  • The product is good for tracking leads which can help you acquire new customers.
  • The product is good for creating opportunities which can help you convert sales.
  • The product can easily be integrated with other applications to make the transfer of data seamless.
Read full review
  • Oracle Service cloud handles incident management extremely well. It can accept requests from multiple channels. That includes email, website, phone, chat, SMS & some social.
  • Oracle Service cloud provides a knowledge base that can be used by customers or by agents. It can move consumers to self service for most issues. It also has good feedback from customers and agents so that the knowledge can continue to be updated to push people to more self service.
  • Oracle has a good consumer portal that can be used as a website or typically is used in conjunction with a main website as a contact center or help center site. This allows the contact center to manage both the knowledge and the request and the interactions with the customers.
  • Oracle Service cloud is built to provide a turn key solution for CRM/Contact center with some minor configuration. But it also has the ability to be highly customized to meet any companies needs. Much of that work can be done via the configuration options already in the system. It also have a full set of SOAP and Rest APIs for integrating to other systems.

Cons
  • Oracle CRM is incredibly complex making it fairly difficult to learn from scratch
  • The original implementation of Oracle CRM was a lengthy and involved process
  • We have had outages where we cannot connect to Oracle CRM which leaves us at a loss. I'm not sure what the solution to this is, but less outages would be ideal.
Read full review
  • This is only an occasional, user problem; when searching for specific records, at times we receive an error that the maximum size has been exceeded and therefore does not yield any results. This is particularly frustrating when trying to search for a specific street address across several years.
  • I found OPA challenging to use.

I give this rating to RightNow because I believe that it's a strong CRM (I know RightNow doesn't like this term) product with virtually limitless possibilities. I like how flexible RightNow is, allowing businesses to fully customize it for their needs. I also like that it's cloud based and doesn't require additional local installation and management.

Usability
Overall our organization has completely moved to Oracle CX Sales and now is able to utilize the latest technology backed by AI to provide a much better experience to customers and saving money at the same time. So it's a Win-Win situation. I believe there is a slight learning curve to derive [the] full value out of this but once you are there, you can delight your customers.
Read full review
The learning curve is fairly steep; but for something that has this much capability, it's nearly impossible to make it "easy". The layout and organization are at least reasonably intuitive. The hardest part-- the "weakest link"-- is the portal development (where you can build help centers and other end-user pages.) The capabilities there are significant, but the learning curve for that part is especially steep and it takes a fair amount of expertise to be able to update it.

Support Rating
The support the Oracle team gives is generally very good. They are patient, willing to help, and their training methods are collaborative and inclusive. They have conducted multiple support sessions and it’s always been a great user experience. The stellar team [is] always on hand to lend support when the right time comes and their helpdesk is always on hand to help.

Technicians seem to be assessed based solely on how quickly they close the issues. I've had to reopen requests multiple times because they didn't actually solve my problem. Also, when the issue has even a moderate amount of complexity, the technicians often instruct me to "open another SR" to handle the other issue. I'm the customer, I shouldn't have to follow their processes, they should handle that for me. But even when I create the new SR, it seems like their right hand isn't talking to their left - they aren't reading back to the previous issue for context. So I get bounced around a lot, and I have to tell them how to do their job

Most of our training was given while doing user acceptance testing, and getting the system approved by the market. When ever we were in doubt, our implementer helped us along. Later on we started exploring by our selves.

Online Training
Excellent online training material. On-demand always helps to access anytime, anywhere. Also, it is essential that in this day and age, video tutorials with actual product screenshots make the learning more useful and fun at the same time. Certifications help test knowledge gained during these tutorial sessions. This was a blessing for fresh users.

Implementation Rating
If you have never used a CRM program is is hard to know exactly what you need. We had lots of changes during implementation and even more afterward once the users started working in it everyday. Also the partner we used didn't inform us about Allotments and not being able to Batch delete custom objects (you can now in recent releases). There were so many unknowns, that if I had it to do over, I would educate myself more and ask more questions of the partner that we used for implementation.
Read full review
Work with a RightNow expert during the implementation. Explain features that would you like to have. Often, somebody who really knows the system can show you what you need to do to achieve the desired results. Where a RightNow support engineer or a consultant might say "the system can't do that," a RightNow application engineer will listen to what you need, and often come up with an alternate path to achieve it

TCS' customers who also selected Oracle Service Cloud over Salesforce Service Cloud and GE's ServiceMax in the Mfg. vertical in which I work, did so because of the robust ability of Oracle Service Cloud and its APIs to integrate with other value-add solutions for manufacturers such as IoT applications, Big Data Analytics, and Field Service applications.
