Bigin by Zoho CRM vs. Gold-Vision

- Multiple pipelines let me organize processes like sales, marketing, customer support, and assets clearly. - The forms builder allows me to gather leads, sign-ups, and customer requests from my website directly into the Bigin by Zoho CRM. - Integrations with Zapier and Make connect website orders and data from other sources smoothly. - Email templates make it easy to send professional, branded communications. - Automations handle repetitive tasks like managing customers, orders, and team tasks, saving me time.

It is the best available solution for small businesses due to the licensing model and the ease of use. For companies like us who implement this for customers, it is easy to implement and train users. Larger companies would prefer to use existing products that have been developed for their specific industry or department.

• Manage big databases. We have a large database of contacts and partners (more than 5,000 contacts), which are updated day by day, as a result of our participation in conferences, webinars, etc. For this reason, we needed a platform that would allow us to always have our database up to date, and accessible and editable by any member of the company.
• Pipelines. Pipelines are very necessary in our daily lives, since we present many service proposals to different clients, and until now we control the status very manually. With Bigin by Zoho CRM, we can have all this information centralized in a single place, and know at all times the status of the service proposals we present (sent, pending decision, lost, won...).
• Product definition. The product definition block has allowed us to further structure our typologies of products and services. At least, it has allowed us to reflect on them and what is the best way to package the service offered.
• Control panel. The control panel has been very useful for us to be able to quickly see the main indicators (offers presented, next actions to be taken, etc.).

• Can be easily integrated with products like Sage or Outlook which most small companies use. This provides us with a great customer base.
• It is quick to deploy and most of our customers start using the solutions in less than a week.
• Very intuitive which makes training our customer easy and causes few support calls.

• Limited Customization Options for Reporting and Dashboards:
• While Bigin offers simple automation tools, setting up more complex workflows can be somewhat challenging. For instance, setting up multi-step workflows or integrating conditional logic can become a bit complicated for users who are not very technical.

• In the latest version, the user interfaces has been greatly improved. Some customers disliked the older version.
• Nothing else to complain about, maybe it can be made cheaper?

The usability is very easy to understand. It takes some time generating all the content you need (e.g. forms or email templates) but the integration in Bigin is very easy and therefore the usability. Once you have all together, you can automatize a lot of marketing activities as well as following up possible projects/customers.

The support is all international and it takes a while to get support as you have to go through chats and set up times, not as easy to just call and get the support you need. They are very nice when you do finally connect with someone and they are knowledgeable, just challenging being international sometimes.

Simplicity Without Sacrificing Core Features
Unlike full-scale CRMs that often feel overwhelming, Bigin by Zoho CRM provides a focused set of features that are perfect for managing deals, contacts, and activities. It’s not bloated, and that was exactly what we needed for a lean, fast-moving team.

Probably the most important aspect would be the licensing model which makes it affordable for all businesses. Can be adapted to the business without having to change the business model around the CRM product.

Incentivized

• Zero deals closed yet – earliest expected close is +6 weeks away.
• No marketing-source conversion data – will need 2-3 months of traffic to quote real CAC or ROMI
• No paid automation – manual follow-ups still dominate, so time-saving metrics are anecdotal, not measured.

Incentivized

• It really filled a gap in the market where small business could not afford expensive CRM solutions.
• As we are implementing this as a solutions for our customers we don't pay for it, but it provides a monthly income from supporting the infrastructure this has been deployed on.
