A highly stable solution that allows customization and data sharing
We can customize the solution the way we want to. We built a ChatGPT extension. It has some capabilities of building its own widgets with respect to CRM. We can integrate it with any web application. We also created SalesInbox, which is a mailing feature. We can set up our mailbox with Zoho CRM. We get updates from Zoho CRM whenever we send out an email. It tells us whether the person viewed the email or clicked on any links. One of the best features of the solution is data sharing. We can create our own rules even if we have configured the standard rules. We can have a different rule setup where we can assign rules based on value and give data-sharing permissions.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"I believe that having one system that handles all of the functions that we need in a business, such as marketing, sales, pipeline management, project management, meetings, customer contact, customer feedback, social media integrations, and connections to our cloud data storage, Google, and Microsoft, is a good idea."
"Offers, a free version."
"The data interpretation feature in Bitrix24 is good."
"The solution's most valuable feature is its project management functionality...It is a pretty stable solution."
"Bitrix24's workflow is better than that of others. The user interface is also good."
"The technical support was intuitive and had good documentation."
"We are considering Bitrix24 as an office automation solution for our workplace productivity-related issues, project management activities, and staff tracking."
"The data entry functionality is excellent, and the pipeline views and filters are highly useful."
"The whole forecasting and pipeline management is very good."
"One of the most important features is that it's a cloud base and, it's also quite cheaper when compared to other solutions. Zoho CRM is customizable as per your requirement and, the Zoho team is able to help you to customize the CRM based on your requirements, and you can integrate to any third-party solution."
"The user interface, especially the dashboard, offers good navigation."
"We use the solution for different projects. We use it to patch lead details from clients' sources."
"There are many features that capture customer data."
"For the most part, the solution is stable."
"Zoho CRM's best feature is its reporting."
"It is customizable. We have customized the CRM according to our needs."
 

Cons

"Our financial department does not use Bitrix24 because it's not good for the sort of work they do. So, once we create an invoice in Bitrix24, we sent it to the client and the financial department and they enter it separately into their system. This is not great for us since we can't track what happens after a sale."
"This solution was built using old technology which is now mixed with new technologies. This can make it challenging to get new features live."
"In our organization, we feel that the UI and the functionalities for workflows in the solution need a lot of improvement."
"We didn't have the ability to customize the solution."
"Bitrix24’s interface needs to be improved."
"The stability could be improved."
"Compared to Microsoft, we found Bitrix24 a little complex because it's new to us, and we don't understand it much."
"We need full ERP integration to take all our processes in one platform."
"There are two things I would like to see from Zoho CRM. The first would be to include a calling feature that is connected to our call center. Second, I would like financial targeting and how to measure targeting for the sales agent to be connected better with bookings."
"The customization options for roles in Zoho CRM are currently limited."
"I would like to see more integrations and customization options in the next release."
"Pricing for Zoho CRM could be improved because it is expensive. My company also needs some analytics, so it would be good if Zoho CRM had built-in analytics."
"We'd like the solution to be less expensive."
"It would be useful to have some way of mapping organizations that could add more value. If I have X company's database and am trying to create multiple contexts for different entities of the same company, I should be able to map it in such a way that I can see the organization chart."
"Since Zoho CRM is not made for the enterprise kind of company, its stability for enterprise businesses could be improved."
"The mobile application is a little complicated and could be simplified."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I use the free version. I sense that my company will need a license for the solution in a few months to use some features like lead management."
"Bitrix24 offers an open-source option for small companies, but you can order a bigger range of services on a monthly or yearly contract."
"Price-wise, it is a very cheap solution."
"Licenses are cheap compared to other solutions."
"The pricing for this program is reasonable."
"We were using the free version which was really limited in terms of functionality."
"On a scale from one to ten, where one is expensive and ten is cheap, I rate the solution's pricing a seven or eight out of ten."
"Bitrix24 used to be cheaper, but now it's getting expensive."
"On a scale of one to ten, where one is a high price and ten is a low price, I rate the pricing a five. However, the pricing is fine because we chose the enterprise plan as a private limited company."
"Compared to other solutions, I would say Zoho CRM is very, very affordable because we can use different applications with one license."
"Zoho CRM has a subscription-based license, which is not too expensive."
"Compared to other CRMs, it is very cheap."
"Professional plans cost $35 per user in the USA and EUR 35 in Europe."
