Zoho good on paper, but our trial period was useless to test integrations as the limits they put on trial can't tell you if your data will fit or if you will be nickel and dimed for api calls, or records storage. I decided to buy into a monthly plan to test it out. Can you just port your trial over to a plan - no. Needed to start over. Ok. Can I even buy CRM Plus Starter. Nope. Bait and switch - you cannot - only enterprise. Every time I interact with anyone from Zoho, I have less and less confidence in the company. Sales people are dismissive, scheduled demo was changed and cancelled and nothing really answered. Integrations are half baked and quirky. Even Self Service buying - when trying to pay to test out a versions for a month or two, you can't do it. On their sales page, say contact sales so I can pay you for the services I want - their sales IQ chat takes your information and then just never does anything else. Maybe Zoho CRM Plus is a a comprehensive offering if you can implement it yourself. For me after a month of working with trials and looking at reviews, and even trying to pay them to trial with real versions, I have been frustrated. I still don't know if the solution will work at starter, enterprise, levels (still reasonable cost) or if integrations to common platforms will balloon my costs by $1000's per month. My suggestion, DO NOT buy an annual subscription. If you think the tool is right for you buy monthly and see what its like for a couple of months so you can really get the user experience and real pricing without being locked in long term. If you like it, go annual. If not, move on.

Pros

Pricing/Feature rich and lots of promises. Seems like there is possibility for a fraction of the price without data caps of other offerings. For the price of XXX tool, I should be able to get a not quite as shiny, but functional version with some quirks and teething instructions. That is the promise, and what I like most about it - is possibility. None of that has been realized though.

Cons

No ability to actually review the software to see if it will work for you. If you are coming in with hundreds of potential users , you might get the time of day. If you are a small business with 3 people, looking to expand and explore, good luck. You could spend months poking around trying to figure our direct answers. All the while there is that buy button . . with annual pricing. So enticing as then you would really see, but don't do it. Look at reviews - support is deplorable - even at top tier paid tiers. You are on your own. You will not be able to figure if this solution will really work with you and your TRUE pricing after extras in 30 days or 45 days. If you do sign up for annual plan at potentially multiples of the sticker price.

Zoho CRM Plus has helped streamline lead management and client communication while keeping everything centralized. Once configured, it runs smoothly and supports both sales and administrative needs.

Pros

The all-in-one ecosystem. CRM, forms, automation, and communication tools work together without needing multiple platforms.

Cons

The setup can feel overwhelming at first, especially when configuring automations and integrations. But there is always a Tech available to help.

I use zoho because that is the system that my company has chosen, but quite frankly it is little more than a glorified spreadsheet with lots of bells and whistles.

Pros

Zoho's customer service is very responsive and more than willing help and/or seek solutions to any problems.

Cons

Zoho is a bit clumsy as a CRM, it does not easily have one centralized view that allows you to look at the entire contact history when dealing with potential and actual customers.

Amazing, no complains. I am excited to keep using it

Pros

Its the most perfect tool ever. You can benefit from their ready to use templates but the most exciting thing is you can creste your own! Not mentioning you have every tool you need in one place

Cons

Nothing yet. I am really liking Zoho and intend to learn more.

Pros

It finally centralizes incoming and outgoing communications within all different Zoho environments making it easier to oversee leads and collaborate. Before, our sales team was just operating in CRM as other tools were too many to handle. Our teams can now see much clearer what is happening in other markets and help out or generate new ideas together. Handovers internally are becoming faster as full history per contact is shown and traced.

Cons

It is not always clear if things are working or not, and there is a need to doublecheck per several environments if things are smooth. Support is not always there to answer quickly.

Customer support is always great, super quick and helpful. The programs Zoho builds are very powerful and customizable but also very challenging to learn and implement into your specific organization. It takes a LOT of time to learn the program as the admin if you're not already familiar with multiple other powerful CRM programs. You just get SO much value for your money. Zoho products can operate your entire business, no matter the industry. I just may be significantly overkill for your needs. Likewise, sometimes a purpose-built tool (specific to your industry) will serve your needs better, and simpler than a tool like Zoho which is built to meet the needs of all company times, from tech start-ups, to retail empires, to social marketing companies, to SAAS companies.

Pros

\- Industry leading integrations with tools like Zapier and others - The value is incredible. You're getting: Project management tools, Social media marketing tools, landing page builders, a fully customizable CRM, email builders, custom workflows, per account and per app permissions for each user, forms, etc. - The customizability of everything is fantastic

Cons

Zoho products in general feel like they were created by software engineers for developers or people with deep technical knowledge about how CRMs connect using hooks and how custom fields can be linked into reports. Its just a LOT to learn, even for someone with a good amount of technical knowledge. I wish the program felt a bit more natural to use. Everything about it feels so clinical or technical. I also wish there was an easy-to-use "Zoho University" to learn how to use all the crazy tools this has to offer. I've used this tool a LOT over 3+ years and there's still way more that I don't know.

Liondesk has a lack of analytics and reporting. We also needed a more robust tool for marketing, and email campaigns.
