Maximizer CRM vs. Oracle Sales

Maximizer CRM is a great tool for customer relationship management. I would like to see more integration with other CRM programs to allow existing data to be easily imported. I would like to see an expanded calendar with better visibility to different users. For the price, it is a very powerful tool that we use daily.

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[.]

• The integration into email could be smoother
• It is could use a better database for tracking installed equipment
• The import of contacts is clunky

Incentivized

• 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.

We are heavily entrenched in Maximizer and trying to pull our data out and into another CRM, with the same amount of customization and workflow would take a lot of effort.

The CRM didn’t have the capability I expected

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.

Some of the more complex customer reports we have created are slow to run at times.

The support staff are very knowledgeable and competent. Never really had an issue with them not knowing what they are doing.

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.

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.

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.

I’d definitely rate them the lowest, simply for the fact that their final interactions with me were far from professional. I was genuinely stunned at [what seemed to me like] this company’s arrogance and unwillingness to look at my issues from my company’s perspective. Over a little money, they made a dissatisfied customer out of me.

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.

• Worth it for the money you put in.
• Though there are more popular CRM's, they all come with a high cost for something we actually don't use much.
• Maximizer should collaborate with more products.

• It allows you to stay on top of reorder points for your existing customers. We call them attrition calls.
• When you orders flowing in, it makes it easier to follow up with buyers for other business units since you already have pre-existing business.
• As a sales organization, everyone in the company has visibility across the board into what is our profit at any given moment for the day, week, month and year. This keeps up on track for each of our goals.
