Configuring Zoho CRM

Zoho CRM's implementation, configurability, customization is easy to implement for normal line of business with a few users and minimum customization and your Zoho CRM is good to go.

Zoho CRM gets a bit extensive and difficult when complex customization is required to be executed or coding for that purpose.
First of all jot down your requirements, reports, customizations that you want to see in Zoho CRM.The best thing to set up Zoho is to start with Zoho Settings/ Preferences by turning on and off the features that you require.

We customized the lead flow of Zoho CRM when any lead/ contact reaches from Website it reaches a specific user/ agent based on Product and location of service delivery.

This feature helps us filter leads and are distributed among the agents/ sales professionals and we can monitor their performance through zoho crm reports.

Using Zoho CRM

UI is easier and convenient, I mean everything starts with me if it's convenient or not! Zoho CRM's interface is easier and it does not matter if you're a new user or an experienced one.

Zoho CRM has vertical and horizontal menus to navigate through, and expandable sidebars that gives us room to further navigate
