Sparkrock vs. Zoho One

For all companies that want to improve the performance of their employees and increase productivity, this software helps all daily business tasks to be executed on time efficiently and smoothly. A very useful program that's why we don't stop using it.

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.

• Data collection - the system is robust and we can tailor it to collect the information we need.
• Easily configurable - the system is easy to configure to meet our specific business needs.
• Reporting and data extraction - the system allows for easy access to information that helps inform business decisions.

• 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.

• Many of the improvements are being met with each upgrade. Altus Dynamics has an idea portal that customers can add ideas to and vote on other customer ideas. This means that most issues that come up are resolved with each new upgrade.

• 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

We are already scheduled for our upgrade to NAV 2016 beginning in May 2016.

Complete workflow management to keep up to date and orderly the daily activities of employees. Allows for seamless cash flow, invoicing, general ledger, payroll, and inventory.

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

Incentivized

Complete tracking of employee performance, hours worked, attendance and absences, vacations, and overtime.

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.

Incentivized

• Real-time data that is available at our fingertips
• Flexibility of the system to address changing needs over time
• Elimination of the huge administrative burdens that we were experiencing as a result of the previous system due to lack of integration

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.

• As a technician it's hard for me to say what effect the ROI has had on our organization, however our finance team seems satisfied on it. We look forward to deploying the staff dashboards for better financial tracking throughout our whole organization.

• 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.
