Overall Satisfaction with Zoho CRM
We used it to track the effectiveness of our sales staff. They generated weekly reports, which were sent to management. In our experience, it was too hard to use for our staff, in part because they never embraced it but also in that it was complex. The features were powerful and deep, far deeper than they were willing to use. The phone app was unreliable in logging calls. Some calls from customers or leads were logged, some were not. We could never figure out why. [I feel that ] support wasn't helpful, and we eventually gave up.
Pros
- Lead and customer activity tracking
- Reporting
- Email integration
Cons
- Reporting was powerful, but difficult for the average user to configure
- The phone app was poor
- Small thing, but after a week or so of non-use the web interface login screen would change to a general Zoho screen, which confused our users.
- It was difficult for non-technical users to navigate
- The phone app was frustrating to the tech-savvy users
- Reporting was excellent
- Microsoft Dynamics 365 (formerly Microsoft Dynamics CRM)
We looked at Microsoft Dynamics since it would integrate with our Office 365, but the price was too much. Zoho [CRM] had the best reviews and had a better price point.
