⚙️ Oracle Siebel CRM Monitoring, Analytics and Automation
GermainUX continuously monitors Oracle Siebel CRM environments end to end, 24/7 and in real time. It helps organizations identify and resolve the user experience, workflow and technology issues that reduce CRM adoption, employee productivity, operational efficiency and application reliability.
By combining Real User Monitoring, Session Replay, process mining, application performance monitoring, analytics and automation, GermainUX helps teams understand not only what happened, but also why it happened, who was affected and what action should be taken. When appropriate and considered safe, remediation can also be automated.
