Featured Reviews

Jaemin Baek - PeerSpot reviewer
Has 360 degree customer view but needs to improve workflow
Because Salesforce is a cloud solution, sometimes we have issues with speed. We experience a lot of delays. The data queries are at times separated and do not match properly. To obtain insights from data, we need to map or match the datasets and define the relationships between them. However, in Salesforce it is very difficult to define relationships between datasets. They do not provide any customization features; they are all global/standard. Because the sales department needs many functions to deal with sales or government policies, like taxes, they cannot develop the features in OCE. As a result, we cannot provide Salesforce as a single solution. The workflow process is not complete. They need to achieve more knowledge and experience in this industry.
Yogesh Kumar Mali - PeerSpot reviewer
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've found the customer 360 degree view to be valuable."
"The most valuable feature of Zoho CRM is emailing. You can send emails to customers directly from Zoho CRM. The marketing team in my company uses this feature, and it's effective."
"Zoho CRM integrates easily with customer service workflows."
"Customer tracking, order management, sales tracking and PO tracking provide efficiency."
"The user interface, especially the dashboard, offers good navigation."
"The product is customizable."
"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."
"Zoho CRM has a location-based feature where if I'm visiting certain customers in a day, it can indicate to me the most efficient route. However, this is if the location of all the offices or places is updated, it saves my time. The calendar in Zoho CRM is synchronized with Google Calander which is very useful for me."
"There are many features that capture customer data."
 

Cons

"Because Salesforce is a cloud solution, sometimes we have issues with speed. We experience a lot of delays."
"The customization options for roles in Zoho CRM are currently limited."
"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."
"Certain functions have occasional performance issues."
"The support response time for this solution could be improved."
"I'd like the solution to offer more integrations with other products."
"I would like to see better integration with Zoho Creator."
"There are at least two big pieces. One is just the ability to reorganize the data and clean it up to eliminate duplicates and things like that. It is very manual at the moment. It only gives us certain fields that we can check on. Because of our particular database, it creates a problem. We deal with hospitals, and there are 50 hospitals. It is tough to figure out which one is which. Is it this one or the other one? So, trying to clean things up is very difficult. I'd like to have more ability to share data fields. The data is structured into different buckets, and I frequently have to create the same field in two different buckets. It would be nice if I could just do a view-only field in another bucket. In my contact bucket, I would like to be able to have just a view-only of the account information so that I don't need to enter it again, which is what I have to do currently."
"The tool is hard for people who have worked with Microsoft Office for a long time."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"OCE is less expensive than Veeva, for instance."
"The tool started out quite cheap. It's had some changes with small and medium business subscriptions, but it's still worth the price. I'd say it's priced a bit below the medium range."
"Zoho CRM is an expensive tool."
"The licensing is the subscription, where we pay $50 per month per user."
"Zoho CRM is available at a fairly average price"
"It is around $1000 a month."
"The solution is cost-effective."
"The product costs $35 per user per year."
"If you compare the pricing with SAP, it is well priced and you are able to pay as you go."
