Aptean CRM vs. Oracle Siebel Enterprise Marketing Suite (discontinued)

As I am highly satisfied with the working of Apteama CRM I would like to recommend it to everyone with all sizes of the firm as it is ideal for firms from small to large ones. With its features, I can guarantee the best CRM solutions along with marketing automation. Although I am looking forward to it to offer more customizations.

If you need a hosted rather than cloud based CRM, Siebel is a consideration. It's best suited to organizations with a large customer database. Given the complexity involved you need at least two full time marketing analysts.The email marketing functionality isn't core to the offering and most organizations would be much better served by cloud based email systems. Siebel offers a very comprehensive feature set and is powerful in the hands of a super user. However, given the costs involved in upgrading a hosted solution I would put serious effort into convincing your decision makers to go for a cloud based CRM instead.

A very conservative data security policy limits the organization to a hosted solution. At particular issue is the tendency of cloud based CRMs to have data centres based in the US, a major issue for Canadian consumers. Once you have integrated a system of this size and complexity, and have the staff resources to utilize it effectively, it's hard to justify a move to an alternative. Consider Siebel if you are a conservatively run organization with a large database of customers and a big marketing team

IntuitiveERP included this CRM package with our license, so there was no extra cost to implement it. Salesforce is expensive so we felt that we could use this package to justify our need for CRM by implementing this package, and if it was improving our sales we could say that a larger package would give the ROI we expect.
