Zoho CRM Reviews

It serves as a centralized system for capturing and managing client information, tracking sales opportunities, and monitoring the sales pipeline. It also provides robust reporting capabilities to analyze and report on these key aspects of customer relationship management.

I appreciate how adding customer information and tracking progress is a straightforward process. The super user can access the central information hub, and reports can be shared with business leaders.

The level of customization required can be quite extensive, especially considering it is a compact product, which can lead to spending a significant amount of time on fine-tuning. Custom development is often necessary to make such extensive changes, and it does come with associated costs.

I have been using it for eight months now.

When it comes to stability, it stands out as one of the most reliable options. It's close to perfect in this regard, and we have experienced no issues at all.

It is highly scalable because it's designed with the potential for expansion, and with the right APIs, it can be seamlessly integrated with various other systems and applications. It's not limited to a single version; rather, it's adaptable and customizable to suit the needs of any organization. This scalability often requires additional financial investments and time to achieve your desired level of customization and integration.

To the best of my knowledge, many of the issues have already been addressed. While the solutions may not have been immediate, they were eventually resolved successfully.

While the initial setup is not overly complex, attempting to make these adjustments alone may not be the best approach. It's advisable to seek assistance to avoid potential mistakes, such as selecting the wrong base revenue or adjusting the conversion rate.

It's beneficial to consider a deployment service, even for just a few hours, to receive guidance and customization support. Having an expert who understands your specific business requirements can make a substantial difference in optimizing your CRM system.

We consider it a good value and found it to be cost-effective.

After evaluating both Salesforce and Zoho, we found Zoho to be the superior choice. It offers a rich set of ready-made features and is highly scalable, providing more opportunities. In contrast, Salesforce, despite its long history, can be seen as overpriced and underutilized, particularly by smaller companies. While Salesforce has greater functionality and power, it may not always be the most cost-effective or efficient solution for all businesses.

Overall, I would rate it eight out of ten.

I use the product for customer relationship management.

The product is customizable. Its features are better than products like Salesforce and HubSpot. It is the best solution.

The solution should add more customizing options to Canvas.

I have been using the solution for two years.

I rate the product’s stability a nine out of ten.

I rate the solution’s scalability a nine out of ten.

The support is not quite good. The support team is available only Monday to Friday.

Neutral

The initial setup is very easy.

The product costs $35 per user per year. We pay separately for premium support.

Overall, I rate the product a nine out of ten.

We use the solution for different projects. We use it to patch lead details from clients' sources. 

I have issues with the tool's scalability. 

I have been working with the product since 2018. 

I would rate the solution's stability between seven to six out of ten. 

I would rate the product's scalability between eight to seven out of ten. We have a lot of users for the product in our organization. 

The solution's setup is easy.

I would rate the product a seven out of ten. 

The solution helps us to identify how customers expect to work with us. It helps us to know the funnel process where the prospect is through. It also serves as a database of information on customers, costs, prospects, and proposals. 

I am impressed with the product's information on customers. 

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 been using the solution for five to six years. 

I would rate the solution's stability a seven out of ten.

I would rate the solution's scalability a seven out of ten. 

The solution's setup is complex. 

I would rate the product an eight out of ten. You need to first think about the version that you need for the company. You need to seek out a person who knows the product very well to help you modify the charts, it could be an associate of Zoho. Think about what information you need to receive from the CRM since you can receive something that you don't need. 

It is used as a database for customers, contacts, and prospects for sales and marketing.

It is a SaaS product. I am using the most recent version of it. 

It is a central place to store information to use for marketing, tracking activity, and developing sales pipelines and stuff.

I like that it is easy to get data in and out of it. We can export and import CSV files.

I also like that the database is hierarchical, which allows me to be able to look at a parent and multiple children.

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.

I have been using this solution for probably six years.

It is stable. It is fine in terms of stability.

It scales well. We have about a dozen users, and it is being used extensively. Any increase in usage would just come naturally with time.

They are medium in terms of wait time and the response itself. From one to five, I would rate them a three.

I can't remember the name, but we had been using a CRM for a long time. We made the switch because of the ability to do more. The old system was too customized. We were looking for something that was more accessible and easy to maintain and that had more standard features.

It was straightforward but nonetheless difficult. It took weeks.

It is lightweight in terms of maintenance. Its maintenance is taken care of pretty much by me. I also have a consultant.

We used an external consultant.

It is around $1000 a month.

I would rate it a seven out of 10.

This solution can be used for a lot of things. They have a number of modules for you to enter for your customer contact. You are also able to use it for analytics and monitoring. 

There are also many modules on the business side. You can integrate your database for different sales and marketing pitches, and you can integrate it with your call center which makes it easy to log complete details of your customers - you can even contact your customers for relationship management!

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.

I would like to see more integrations and customization options in the next release.

I have been using Zoho CRM for about two years.

It's a stable product. Initially, not so much. There were a lot of hiccups and failures when they were first starting out, but they have made improvements and are now quite stable.

This is a scalable product, especially since it is a cloud-based product. We currently have around two hundred to two fifty users working in the CRM.

There were issues with the tech support, we were not able to get through to them in order to get the issues resolved. But, over a period of time, maybe a year and so, it's become better for the most part, though sometimes we still have trouble getting through to them.

We used an in-house CRM initially but switched to Zoho CRM because it had much more features.

The initial integration was pretty straightforward so we were able to the start using the CRM pretty quickly. However, the integrations and customizations took some time to set up.

We implemented the solution in-house and have two administrators and one manager in there for maintenance. We need three guys because we have made a lot of customizations and integrations.

There is an annual license.

We evaluated Salesforce CRM, though I am unsure why we went with Zoho.

I would recommend Zoho CRM to any business that requires a lot of integration, customization, and reconstruction on the core side.

I would rate this product an eight out of ten overall.

I like the solution's reminder feature which is helpful for big projects. There are many tasks that run at the same time. The reminder feature makes things easy for me since I use Zoho's mobile version as well. 

The tool is hard for people who have worked with Microsoft Office for a long time. 

We first activated the license last year around April. I have been using the product for about a year and a quarter. 

We had opted for a US server which was a mistake. We have asked to move our data setup to EU. 

My company has 60 users for the product. 

The solution's support is based on the plan that you have. The gold plan gets support from Monday to Friday for 24 hours. There is no assistance on weekends. You get 24/7/365 support for platinum plans. 

We use the solution's cloud license. The tool's setup is straightforward if you have your business requirements defined. We have only done a couple of sprints. We are yet to have to go live for the entire module. 

I would rate the product a six out of ten. The solution makes more sense to a mid-sized company since it is cheaper than Freshworks. Freshworks is enormous, big, full-fledged, and suited for large enterprises. The product is also easy to implement since it is less technical. 

The solution's most valuable feature is the ease of navigation.

The solution's feature for forecast has limitations. It could be better. Also, there need to be more features similar to its on-premise version.

I have been using the solution for nine months.

The solution is always stable. I rate its stability a nine out of ten.

I rate the solution's scalability an eight or nine.

The solution's technical team is very helpful.

Positive

The solution's setup process is simple and cost-effective.

The solution's technical team helped us implement it.

The solution is cost-effective. I rate its pricing a four out of ten.

I have evaluated SAP and Salesforce solutions. In comparison, Zoho meets all our business requirements and provides simple navigation.

I rate the solution a nine out of ten.
