“Automated Controls Improve Efficiency While External Pricing And UI Limit Flexibility”

5.0
Dec 29, 2025
Managing sales operations across 7 different countries with three distinct business models - retail, wholesale and project-based, is a massive challenge, and SAP Sales Cloud is the platform that holds it all together for us. We use it for everything from initial lead generation to final order. The integrations with Microsoft Teams and Outlook have been a real lifesaver for our teams' daily activity management and follow-ups. What is particularly impressive is how we have linked the system to local project databases both in Turkey and our other regions; lead flow in automatically, which keeps our pipeline fresh. We have also moved our entire approval mechanism to the system, so profitability and cost controls are now handled digitally before any quote is finalized. It is a powerful soliton for complex environments, but I have to be honest: because we have heavy external pricing integrations and custom workflows, we do see occasional performance dips. This is a trade-off for having such a comprehensive system, but it requires constant monitoring to keep operations running smoothly.

Overall, the Commerce platform has become a comfortable software as a service. Yet the high licence costs are not being covered by the usage of the platform.

SAP Sales Cloud Likes & Dislikes

Like

As a former consultant, I really like how flexible the configuration is once the core design is set. You can align it with complex business processes without needing constant custom coding. The integrations architecture is also a stand-out feature for us. We have managed to create a seamless flow between our local project databases, Outlook and Teams, which has significantly improved our sales team's disciplines in tracing activities. Finally, the automated upgrade cycle is a huge relief. Knowing that we will get the latest features and security patches without a massive manual project every few months allows us to focus more on business value and less on system maintenance.

Comfortable deployments and easy configuration for code repo access and site to site VPN functionality. IP filtering is easy to apply.

SAP's greatest strength is the integration and reliability of its solutions. Once implemented, the system runs with minimal disruption, and the data flow across modules is seamless. This consistency enables efficient consumer support, operational transparency, and strong governance. I also appreciate SAP's ongoing commitment to innovation and compliance with global standards.

Dislike

External pricing calls are a real performance bottleneck. When our sales reps are trying to close a deal, any lag in pricing impacts their flow and daily productivity. Also, the UI is quite rigid, you are mostly stuck with predefined themes, which limits the user experience. Lastly, while the SAP Influence portal is a good idea for submitting new feature requests and improvement ideas, it often feels like a black box. We submit requests but get very little feedback on when or if they will ever be implemented.

Dislike

High licensing costs. Also the support via the SAP portal is not always satisfying.

Dislike

While dependable, SAP's solutions can be complex to maintain and customize. Configuration often requires specialized technical knowledge, which limits agility for smaller enhancements. Additionally, communication during system upgrades or support escalations could be more proactive and transparent.

    My overall experience with SAP has been positive. The company provides a reliable, well-integrated ecosystem that supports complex business. SAP is a dependable partner, its platforms perform consistently once implemented, and their focus on integration and compliance helps ensure smooth, secure operations across regions. Collaboration with SAP teams is generally professional and productive, especially when addressing operational challenges or incidents.

    Predictable data, cleaner pipelines

    5.0
    Nov 2, 2025
    Deterministic E2E data setup. A pipeline step seeds Accounts -> Opportunities -> Quotes, applies discounts, triggers approval and asserts stage transitions via API. Our "green path" went from ~40-50 min and flaky to ~18-22 min and repeatable. Shift-left validation of sales rules. I can codify discount caps, territory assignments and visibility rules in tests that run per PR. Bad config is caught before it lands in a sales rep's hands. Less UI brittleness, more signal. Because fields and layouts are modeled centrally, my selectors change less often. Failures now point to logic/regression issues rather than "element not found" noise.

    High Service Standards Offset by Lack of Community Involvement and Clarity

    4.0
    Jul 17, 2025
    The experience has been in general very good, but could be improved, especially in terms of adapting to feedback. Far too often, the company doesn't engage with the customer community, but instead tries to influence customer expectations rather than the product. 'Topics like "Keep your core clean" don't resonate well, and many open topics and issues remain unsolved for a very long time, and the company works on topics that seem difficult to understand why this has priority.
