OpenPhone vs. Zoho ContactManager (discontinued)

If you have more than 2 people in your organization, then this will save you so much time. Delegation is the key to starting a business. Even when you're a 1 person show, being able to present to your user base the differentiation of options for client communications is critical. As a founder, feeling compelled to be always on is something I strive not to be. OpenPhone gives you that flexibility. I have found it to be less appropriate in complex HIPPA compliant areas, but that is it. OpenPhone really does seem to suit an open array of use cases.

Zoho ContactManager [is great at] being able to track interactions for all users. We love that you can access information through the mobile app and makes it super easy to import contacts and create tasks very quickly. So many options and we like that we have the ability to customize fields. Zoho ContactManager does a great job of being able to follow up and track interactions.

OpenPhone has an easier user interface than Grasshopper. Years ago when I was using Grasshopper, I recall that their user interface looked antiquated and full of complications. They would also update the interface just as everyone was getting used to using it. OpenPhone has many more functions. Grasshopper's app did not offer basic functions such as in-app texting between team members, and its call transfer function was incredibly complicated to use. In my opinion, Grasshopper was an inferior service/product in almost every way.

Zoho ContactManager [is] easy to learn, use, and the setup is quick! We love the ability to track interactions and future interactions via desktop and mobile app which works great since travel frequently for work and conferences. We also use Zoho ContactManager's email automation which saves time and brings in leads for our company.
