Reviews
(51-75 of 297)Does the basic job pretty well - as long as your requirements are simple, this will very well fit in
- Basic record keeping
- Some level of automation
- Dashboards are relevant
- Automation can become more modern and intuitive
- AI tools can become more accurate. We have turned that on, but it seems very distant from actual outcomes
- Updating and fetching records at scale is a problem
But as you scale you will come across different needs like automation / AI / data analysis where Zoho CRM is not the best and the most intuitive.
All in one solution that delivers on its premise.
- Quick and easy setup.
- Great analytics and reporting.
- Budget friendly.
- Fast and seamless integration with the entire suite of Zoho products and services.
- Automation is not that user friendly.
- Speed (in terms of refreshing after actions or completed) is somewhat slow.
- Customization is somewhat limited and not that intuitive.
Great for Small Businesses
- User Friendly
- Modern, simple design
- Customization
- Report details need more options when pulling any type of report
- Custom emails need to have a bit more options
- Ability to send more than 500 emails at a time
Zoho Sales Handbook
- Increased conversion of Qualified Leads
- Increased sales productivity and effectiveness
- Better forecast and pipeline visibility
- Measurable ROI from lead generation program
- Better alignment of sales and response efforts
- Integration with other platforms
Good Product that we do not use to its fullest potential
- Manage development through Projects
- Manage customer information, CRM
- Manage customer issues through Desk
- We need to develop the customer opportunities side of the CRM to a much higher level
On a less useful side, as we currently have the CRM setup, we have a difficult time creating an opportunity view of all current quotes.
Ease with process for integration
- Connections
- Community
- Support
- Data Adaption
- Shuffling sometimes incorrect
- Authentication process
Zoho CRM Piece of Cake
- Organized information
- Amazing personalization capabilities
- Great workflow rules
- Their support is too bad from my experience
- They can personalize the software a little bit more
- There are key apps we use that can't be integrated with Zoho.
Zoho CRM to Improve Sales
Also it greatly help us aling sales.
- Lead Nurturing
- Cost Effective
- Integration Options
- Report Export
- Campaigns based on filters
Before ZOHO CRM we use to manage things on excel which takes lots of manual effort.
Zoho CRM helped us manage leads very well and let us emphasis on campaigns that are working for us and also helped us know
campaigns that are not working. Overall we are very much satisfied with the Zoho CRM
Rich in functionality, loads of integrations
- Improves interaction with customers
- Helps to create framework to make things easy for sales rep
- API support, easy to integrate other tools to share data
- Had a lot of issues while creating the framework, it would be awesome if they can share some pre-insights to improve the procedures.
- Improvement of UI/UX
- More API options
Zoho CRM is simple and easy
- Sales funnel management
- Forms
- Easy to use
- Keeping data in all one place
- You can only have one email attached to a form. This means that I have to go elsewhere to create a full drip campaign.
- Reporting leaves a lot to be desired. It is difficult to set up reports exactly how we want them.
- There are some things that aren't allowed to be customized that definitely should be
- Support means well, but they rarely can help

Zoho Review
- Enrichment of additional information of leads and accounts
- Creation and scheduling of reports
- Automation of processes using Workflow rules
- Integrating CRM forms to be used in Marketing Plus
- Forecasts module looks a bit complex to maintain
- Inability to create forecasts with different currencies
- Territory management should be more easier to work
1. Usage of reports and creating chart views wherever necessary.
2. Building workflow rules to send important notifications on some major deadlines.
3. Usage of tasks to prioritise
4. Enrichment of additional info regarding leads, contacts or accounts and 5. Tracking website visits by integrating CRM and visits .
An ever expanding buffet of functionality is available to us at a ridiculously low price
- Provide a shared single source of Customer information (classic CRM)
- Allow us to easily create automations relevant to each department's functionality
- CRM allowed us to bring up each department separately using in-house designed views with easily created logic functionality applied to fields within each view
- Build custom reports and dashboards starting with supplied off the shelf examples
- First level support suffers from cultural context issues-- instead of trying to understand the customer's issue(s), they seem more motivated to close a ticket with canned responses
- Documentation is not consistent and often does not match the current implementation of the software
- Producing attractive custom views with more aesthetics and visual cues requires the use of an additional (though included for free in Zoho One) software application
- Fliexibility
- Ease of Use
- Extendible
- Filtering Records by their related fields.
- Dynamic Formula Fields. You have to edit the record to regenerate the formula. Example: Age field will not automatically update unless you edit & save the record.
- Dynamic Homepage Dashboard. You must manually reload the dashboard to get up-to-date data.
- Faster Sync with Zoho Analytics. It's currently on a 3 hour cycle.
- Better integration with Zoho Finance Suite. Lots of small issues here and I feel that they have room for tons of improvement.
- Subforms are not available within email templates.
- The editing of subforms is not currently possible while using their Canvas Feature.
- Address fields on Quotes have a "Copy Billing to Shipping" feature but if you add a second street address or a company name field, these fields will not copy across. This is a bug I believe that has existed for 10 years.
The life is easier with Zoho...
- Self-Improvement
- Sensitivity about customer requests
- Innovative
- Need to improve some of support service processes due to standard quick replies without read and understand exactly.
- CRM mobile application improvement. It's quite at back of web version
- Zoho Page Sense platform is available to follow up your website analytics and create a pop up campaigns on website but you can't create automatic lead on your Zoho CRM as connected with Zoho Page Sense pop up campaign. Only way is downloading CSV file to collect your lead... That's quite interesting.
