SigfridCecillon - PeerSpot reviewer
Reliable and offers helpful technical support but is expensive
The implementation process was very easy since it's a cloud solution. It's already installed by the provider. We just have to populate the data into the product, and that process is not very complex. That said, we have noticed it is missing some data regarding, for example, currency, and a few other things. The deployment itself took one month or so. I did it mostly alone and with the help of my engineer. I did about ten days of work, and then another ten with the engineer.
AmerKhan - PeerSpot reviewer
Diverse integrations assist in seamlessly aligning marketing efforts with sales tracking
Zoho CRM is flexible due to its integrations, like with Zoho Campaign, helping integrate marketing efforts with CRM processes. It offers a no-cost entry with the ability for three users to use it at no charge, which is beneficial for startups to explore the platform without financial strain. This enables me to start using the platform, handle opportunities, and get a feel before committing financially.

Cons

"The solution's report section is not very capable and could be improved."
"The solution can get quite expensive, especially as you add more users."
"The notifications and workflow management can be improved in LeadSquared."
"The solution’s UI could be more user-friendly."
"The product's scalability and stability need improvement."
"The tool is hard for people who have worked with Microsoft Office for a long time."
"It is hard to modify information around a customer. You need to pay for the features and the tool needs to improve it."
"I have issues with the tool's scalability."
"The solution can improve by having a policy that allows us to integrate with the cloud."
"In Creator, you can do calculations and change another field immediately after you enter any value. If you add the quantity or price in any field, you can immediately change the total in Creator. The same functionality is not directly available in CRM because it is prebuilt."
"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 MCR capabilities have some limitations."

"There is a license required for this solution."
"Zoho CRM is available at a fairly average price"
"There is an annual license."
