A rigid product that is hard to customize, has no mobile app, and is rarely updated by the vendor

There is no mobile application. The product is unmoving, as there is no obvious development or enhancements being made. When we are trying to compete in a market we need an updated product. The product is not easily customizable and we have to depend on the reseller for that. It's a rigid product. There are no reports available.

Diverse integrations assist in seamlessly aligning marketing efforts with sales tracking

Zoho CRM is flexible due to its integrations, like with Zoho Campaign, helping integrate marketing efforts with CRM processes. It offers a no-cost entry with the ability for three users to use it at no charge, which is beneficial for startups to explore the platform without financial strain. This enables me to start using the platform, handle opportunities, and get a feel before committing financially.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"Stability-wise, it is working fine with no technical faults."

"Zoho CRM has been a really good product. From a basic CRM perspective, we use it to maintain the details of our company's customers."

"Zoho CRM integrates easily with customer service workflows."

"The whole forecasting and pipeline management is very good."

"We can customize the solution the way we want to."

"The most valuable feature of Zoho CRM is emailing. You can send emails to customers directly from Zoho CRM. The marketing team in my company uses this feature, and it's effective."

"The login and logout times of each employee of our company are recorded by Zoho CRM for productivity calculations"

Cons

"There are no reports available."

"Sometimes, there are technical glitches. When we add product details, the information disappears. It can be improved from this aspect. Some of the bugs also need to be resolved."

"Zoho could be more user friendly by improving the UI of the interface."

"There should be easy access to feature recommendations in the solution"

"The only thing I noticed was that it does not support multi-country operations. In Canada, for example, we do not use the term "state," but rather "province," and we do not use zip codes, but rather "postal codes.""

"I'm not sure that there is scalability potential for enterprises."

"Custom development is often necessary to make such extensive changes, and it does come with associated costs."

"The product's scalability and stability need improvement."

"There are two things I would like to see from Zoho CRM. The first would be to include a calling feature that is connected to our call center. Second, I would like financial targeting and how to measure targeting for the sales agent to be connected better with bookings."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We are paying for a subscription."

"Professional plans cost $35 per user in the USA and EUR 35 in Europe."

"It is around $1000 a month."

"Compared to other solutions, I would say Zoho CRM is very, very affordable because we can use different applications with one license."

"The product costs $35 per user per year."

"The price of Zoho CRM is already competitive, but we would always like to have a better discount. Most of the features are included in the price but if we want the extra features then we have to purchase them."

"This solution is less expensive than Salesforce."

"Its price is lower than the other software."

"The tool started out quite cheap. It's had some changes with small and medium business subscriptions, but it's still worth the price. I'd say it's priced a bit below the medium range."
