Munis vs. Zoho One

Munis is great for any sort of data keeping and accounting work. There are features of Munis that I am still not familiar with even after 6 years of use. Munis would not be very good for a point of sale sort of operation like a retail store because it just simply is not set up for that sort of operation.

Advantages

• The price-quality ratio is excellent, even though Odoo has become very competitive.
• The time to implementation is also great, if not one of the best.
• Excellent billing and service desk apps

It is not the best solution if you are looking into a collaboration-focused software suite.

• Excellent for the municipal Financial program. Completely paperless.
• Workflow is easy and easy to adjust.
• Very Very user friendly even for the non computer savvy employees.
• Windows based so easy to navigate.
• Excellent help desk.

Incentivized

• CRM integrates nicely using our Zapier environment.
• The Lead to Contact/Account Conversion is very intuitive.
• Deals, Sales Orders, and Contract Zoho Sign work well together.

• Submitting a purchase order requires lots of tabbing through fields
• The product has lots of features, but they require additional training to understand how to use
• Generating reports can sometimes be difficult

Incentivized

• The integration is loose and needs to be more stable and a true integration
• Development appears to take long periods of time to bring customer enhancements into the next release. I have seen numerous obvious business application needs to be brought to the attention that is still 2-3 years old without an update
• Unified User Interface and back end functionality/configuration across applications

Incentivized

While the software is easy to use and pick up, the different user interfaces and limits across the application make it difficult and slow to implement additional applications quickly and seamlessly across the organization. If the User interface was more consistent we would be able to pick up and train on new apps more efficiently

Support is great as a customer, as a partner I get moved to that team more often and find issues in the support being provided. It also appears that the support agents do not take into account all the information provided and default back to the "step 1 of the playbook" instead of taking into account the business reason the support is being requested and understanding the steps already taken.

5 years ago, we decided to use Odoo. At that time, the enterprise version of Odoo was not competitive enough for a small company with minor integration needs when it comes to the pricing per user. Nowadays, pricing is almost equal. The effort of integration processes with Odoo is still higher even though it delivers more potential. A decision between both today would be more difficult for us.

• Munis has prevented our office from needing multiple software programs to house all of our information.
• All of our employees have access to the same information, on the same software.
• Munis has made day-to-day operations smoother for our office because we are not constantly flipping between programs or software.

Incentivized

• It has had an overall negative impact since we migrated from HubSpot due to the overall lack of support.
• Our users are frustrated with the complexity and lack of consistency in the admin portals.
• CRM is the only tool that is ready for business at scale.
