Pourquoi passer à Zoho CRM

Cheaper and filled our needs. Salesforce tends to be complicated.

Avantages

Various pricing tiers, including a free version with basic features; user interface of Zoho CRM is fairly user-friendly; Great Customization options!; integrates seamlessly with other Zoho applications as well as third-party apps, such as Google Workspace, Microsoft Office 365, Zapier, and social media platforms.
It also offers automation.
Mobile Accessibility with the app

Inconvénients

Zoho CRM is user-friendly, but mastering its full range of features and customization options requires time and training, especially for users who are new to CRM software. There is limited customer support with long response times and difficulty in getting timely assistance for technical issues or queries.
I personally have had a few issues with some minor glitches and the first response back is always some canned response that is annoying. After about 3 tries, they then ask you to send a video of the issue, and then MAYBE someone will help fix it all. There are still issues I am having after a year that have not been fixed, and these glitches are affecting my automation.
For complex customization, may require technical expertise or assistance from Zoho's professional services, which incurs additional costs.
Scalability: While Zoho CRM is suitable for small to medium-sized businesses, some larger enterprises may find its scalability limited compared to other CRM solutions on the market.
Other:
offline functionality of Zoho CRM is limited, which may pose challenges for users who frequently work in environments with poor or no internet connectivity.

Avantages

Zhoh CRM is fairly easy to use and set-up. As with any CRM there will be areas where you wish it could do more, but overall it does what it needs to do to be a decent CRM.

Inconvénients

There are not as many places that you can customize the areas you would like. It makes it a little frustrating at times. Also, there are functions that have been asked for for years from the community that still have not been implemented.

The reminders that we set only appears as web-based push notifications and I often tends to lose it. The features are overwhelming in enterprise version and every time we need some help, the team pushes us to do a paid online training. The quality of downloadable charts is not up-to mark and we depend on external pivots and excels and use Zoho CRM downloads as backups.
