We use it as a platform to house information of our leads and then gradually work them through until they pay and sign up for our SaaS platform. Marketing team runs different campaigns and gets us leads in the CRM. BDRs would pick up each of them as well as do some direct targeting themselves and then do the qualification. BDMs would then do the demo and close deals.
  • 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
Definitely well suited for small and medium sized companies with <500 leads a month, a team of <10
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.

We use Zoho CRM for all aspects of managing our client relationships. From marketing, through sales, through delivery, or our services, everything is tracked, organized, analyzed, and stored in Zoho CRM. We needed a solution that allowed for tracking, analyzing, and reporting from "step 1" all the way through our client's journey and kept everything client-related sorted and associated correctly. Zoho CRM has been that solution for us.
  • 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.
Zoho CRM is well suited as one solution and works best (in my opinion) if you are committed to the Zoho suite of products with which it integrates seamlessly. If there are other solutions being used for some or all of the functionality provided by Zoho CRM, there is likely to be redundancy, and there may be issues with integration.

We use Zoho CRM for both account management and recruiting for different healthcare positions in the Home Health field. We have multiple users at our location working on building our clientele base to ensure future prospective clients including those past interested in our services. During the pandemic we found ourselves in need of more staff, so we began to build a data base with people who have applied or expressed interest in our positions. It has help us build a strong staff over the three years of using Zoho.
  • 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
Sending out emails from Zoho CRM has been very helpful with keeping up with our small database. It also let us keep track with reporting on who our emails are going out too and which ones are bouncing back. The notes section has helped our sales people in keeping track of contacts and last spoken too.

We use Zoho to manage our customers information, any customer issues (Helpdesk), and to manage new product development through the use of the Projects product.
  • 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
Being able to manage design resources across multiple projects is very helpful. With Zoho we do not have to launch a MS Project Server to accomplish this activity.

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.

It is well suited in order to store or gather information of the customers in order to provide the best experience as much as can. Also, it is one of the best platforms to showcase the behavior of storage also providing sales opportunities in order to get proper support and resolve the issue.

Zoho CRM is pretty much the core of our business. We have all the key information there. Some of our business problems are that we didn't have a way to future use with our customers until we found Zoho. Now we are happy to work with a tool that helps us bring the best of our company into a single source of truth.
  • 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.
If you are running a campaign to revive old of former customers, it's great to have Zoho, because it allows your company to create filters and send automated emails to key customers. If you are planning to personalize your system according to your needs with multiple formulas, please consider to have a Zoho partner since the support provide by the team, even when you have premium support is terrible in my opinion.

We use zoho crm to collect leads from different sources. It helps us know which is the best source for lead generation.
Also it greatly help us aling sales.
  • Lead Nurturing
  • Cost Effective
  • Integration Options
  • Report Export
  • Campaigns based on filters
Lead management is a very tedious task.
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

We used Zoho CRM, one of the most used software from Zoho One pool. The best part of this CRM is the integration of other Zoho tools, so it's pretty easy to add things when necessary. It also has a feature to design the whole framework, so you can simplify the work process. We used most of the tools like billing, projects, social etc. so it's easy to add our latest projects and marketing decks from our repository while giving a presentation to any customers, or if someone asks for a sample it's too easy to forward it the same. Zoho CRM will give you a wide range of functionality and freedom. You have to edit it as per your choice.
  • 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
Of most of the CRM I have used, this is one of the best in the market in comparison to functionality and API integrations. I have used Jira, Sugar, and Empluse but Zoho is something best in the market and everyone should consider it at least once. In addition, it also offers other tools to improve the workflow, but all of them not up to the mark but get's the work done.

We use Zoho CRM to keep our leads and customers organized. We know where our leads are at in the sales process and store all our data on them in the CRM. We also use some automation through Zoho, including forms on our website for lead generation. This assists in the overall sales process and keeps us organized.
  • 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
I recommend Zoho CRM for anyone that is looking for a CRM that is easy to use. We are a small company but get about 3-5 leads per day, and Zoho allows us to manage them easily. We used to use Salesforce, which was a complete nightmare in my opinion. You don't need to be an expert to use Zoho.

We use Zoho CRM to gather and manage all prospects, including communications, campaigns, and tasks. We also have built web forms to collect customer information when interested parties want more info, want to enter a contest, or join a mailing list. The Zoho web forms are easy and intuitive. They also send an Auto response to confirm that a visitor's info has been received and being processed.
  • flexible formats and fields
  • mass email analytics
  • support new users with quick answers to questions
  • custom number of page count on leads tab / not limit to 100
  • create filtered list in leads from mass email report
  • create spreadsheet/tables in note section in account note fields
  • allow more than 4 web forms
  • allow two emails per user
I am a fairly new user/administrator for CRM and by far the most impressive and valuable benefit of using Zoho is their customer service. I have never had any customer service more friendly, effective and efficient. When I have used their chat feature, it has always been a live knowledgable person who has helped or fixed my problems. Then immediately they email a summary of the chat with links to relevant resources to our discussion. Zoho has been very good for my growing business.

I use Zoho CRM on a day to day basis in my company. It is pretty much useful in creating and managing leads regularly along with deals and accounts. I like the way Zoho enriches additional information while creating a lead or an account. Also, reports in Zoho helps track various data on a daily basis. Workflow rules help in automating various automations as well.
  • 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
Scenarios that are well suited are:
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 .

We initially started out looking for our first corporate CRM package to begin replacing all of the many in-house tracking and reporting functions created within each siloed department using primarily Google apps and MS Office apps. After bringing up CRM we saw both effective and efficient possibilities by becoming a Zoho One customer and planned steady migration in that direction. As each department began taking advantage of CRM automations as key way to improve our processes it became a no-brainer to become and enterprise Zoho customer and start taking advantage of the inherent interoptability with other Zoho applications. We are a relatively small company (~50 employees) and currently use (to varying degree) over 20 Zoho apps in conjunction with CRM.
  • 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
For really small companies, the software might be quite challenging 'out of the box'. It is particularly well suited for companies that have at least some technical expertise in-house (particularly around basic data concepts and systems thinking). Zoho offers (for a fee) a dedicated support rep on an annual basis. I cannot emphasize enough how valuable this service is in efficiently migrating to Zoho CRM and then using the all the available features and functionality to customize the software to your specific needs.

Besides Customer contacts, we use it as an operational hub.
  • 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.
It's very well suited to organizations that have an IT team or person who will be able to build out the system. Zoho CRM really shines when you use Custom Functions which run on deluge (or node.js). These allow you to really extend the system and customize it to your exact needs.

We use Zoho on CRM and Sales Management of our business process. The useful point is to make easier following up processes and minimize the mistake risks.
  • 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.
Zoho is really innovative and good company which focus on self improvement. We're quite happy to be a part of Zoho and because of add some development values to the system with our requests and recommendations.I just recommend to improve some of support processes. When I have any issue on system, I spare my minutes to text and inform support team via ticket but when I get standard quick reply messages from support team even though they my detailed ticket explanation, I feel they don't read and understand the problem actually. For example, I inform support about something mobile issues, support member is texting to me, do you use mobile app? First of all, they should see some of statics on our customer profile related to our habits and processes and then need to response of ticket... That's the CRM right?

We use Zoho CRM in three different countries we have a presence and it's used for various departments, like Sales, Marketing, and Customer Service. To our Sales Teams, it's very important to follow all their negotiations with several customers. The actual problem with Zoho CRM is it can't be easily integrated with our ERP system; we use SAP ERP EHP6.0, so the information about our customers is not consistent. Another problem is how easily users can duplicate information about customers and contacts and this affects the post-analysis of information. Our scope of use case is to have a complete integration between Marketing, Sales, and Customer Service. We try to generate Leads from our campaigns and after that our Sales Team follows the leads and makes a customer journey so our Customer Service can execute some surveys. Sometimes, the surveys are outbound to increment in the number of responses. Finally, all the information is analyzed to enhance the effectiveness of campaigns and sales procedures.
  • User-friendly
  • Good technical support
  • Flexibility and personalization
  • User administration without a subscription to Zoho Directory
  • Integrations sometimes deactivates automatically
  • Possibility to have some DEV tenant to not make changes on Productive
The better scenario to implement Zoho CRM is from a middle size organization. The time to implement it is fast and faster if you want to use it stand alone without integrating it with other solutions, but even this way, it can improve sales and customer management. If you have an ERP solution with another brand, it could be expensive in time and money. Yes, there are APIs to make integration work, but you would need middleware or something like that, so you will need someone to administrate it or check it to see if it has problems.

Prior to using Zoho CRM, we had to manually reach out to a very large number of people at first. Then, after observing the range of options offered by Zoho CRM, we made the decision to employ them. it's super useful and helpful for me that lacked advanced knowledge in CRM tools. I liked how user-friendly the tool is and I would recommend this CRM to anyone who is looking for a quick and easy way to address his challenges in the organization.
  • Mass email
  • Accurate opened/click rate
  • Analytics
  • within the timeline
  • workflow automations
  • APY
Zoho CRM is well suited for emails blast and less appropriate for complex flows indeed, I simply specify the KPIs that are important to me, and Zoho CRM will handle the rest. In my case, it is about learning from our sales from the previous month, social media email campaigns, and straightforward sales initiatives. I Like that we can select from a variety of visual models, such as heat maps and custom charts, to see how our company is performing. Also, I have to be imaginative in dealing with your time while waiting for your turn to be serviced.

I was looking for something to simplify my communication with leads and clients. I found Zoho CRM to be a very powerful piece of software, but it has its limitations, yet it's features are quite unmatched. it ties into all the other zoho pieces of software which makes a nice seamless system
  • track leads
  • communicate place inthe sales funnel
  • everything is at the tip of your fingers
  • too many features, very gard to get started
  • overwhelming for a single owner startup
  • may need an implementor, which is costly, to help
its very powerful but pretty much a full time position to setit up right, customize and and integrate it with all your systems. i reached out to consultants to help but it was too costly for a small startup and so I abandoned the project and move to a different CRM. they were also playing with their pricing structure at the time and the cost was quite low before, but now its pretty high if you get a license for everyone don't he company.

We use Zoho CRM to keep track of rehab projects, clients and potential clients we work with. It's also just become my white pages. It's been able to keep all the contact info and updates about people and projects in one place.
  • Contact list
  • Project management
  • Integrates well to my cellphone
  • Has helped me get through my daily tasks
  • The mobile app could be a little more robust
  • Reminders on my phone don't always work
  • Onboarding others is sometimes a little difficult
Zoho CRM is the best contact relations manager I've been able to find. It has helped me stay on track with reaching out to my clients and potential clients on a daily basis. That was my biggest problem before and Zoho CRM has been amazing and helping me with it. I get regular reminders and can easily follow up. I also love the ability to share info with my colleagues. We can work together on a task and get it done more quickly then without Zoho CRM.

We use Zoho CRM to manage our customer database between our corporate location as well as our company-owned installation branches. It has helped us manage thousands of leads a year across the country. We use it to keep customer information, set appointments, schedule follow-ups, create proposals, send proposals, as well as manage customer accounts. Having this all in one place has allowed our sales team as well as our management team to keep better track of our pipeline, sales, as well as performance across the country. This allows us to increase sales, closing rates, as well as revenue.

It is well suited for local companies who are calling on or performing work at homeowners' house as well as larger corporations who have thousands of wholesale accounts across the country. It allows us to manage all kinds of customers and sales types. It has simplified our process as well as our reporting.

We use Zoho CRM for day to day sales and marketing efforts. We organize phone and email marketing plans within Zoho and then execute them within Zoho as well using different plug ins.
  • Importing Data
  • Exporting Data
  • Custom Page Layout Modifications
  • Custom Field Layout Modifications
  • Creating Dashboards
  • Integration with various phone software.
  • Creating better visibility for active campaigns.
  • Make it simpler to modify pages and fields within the page module.
Zoho is perfectively suited for small to medium-sized sales and marketing companies that aren't dealing with HIPPA or PCI data.

We needed a CRM that was fully customizable. Instead of using the CRM to bring in income, we have actually built it to disperse rental assistance in our area. I demoed many products and Zoho came in on top with its customizability and API integrations.
  • API for moving data in and out
  • User friendliness
  • Flexibility and Customizations
  • Reporting was lacking for our specific needs however their API made using other solutions possible.
  • Support could be quicker to respond.
  • Documentation around API needs improvement.
When you need a custom CRM that can be set up fast with integrations into a whole ecosystem of other products that work well together.
