Automates client workflows and data validation reliably but has faced limits in complex integrations
While applying some integrations or automations, if we need to take an action between two modules' fields, we have to write SOQL, and it can miss the data. I had a scenario where I had to use two fields from two different modules, and based on that condition, we had to send a follow-up to our team member to complete the task. We could not find any direct integration, direct SOQL query, or direct workflow that could do that work. However, I think the wizard is performing better now for such tasks. I had a two-part scenario where I had to get data from two modules or two fields in Zoho CRM and send a follow-up to our team member based on that data. We were unable to find any direct integration for this. Another issue is that a Zoho CRM function can run for only three minutes. After three minutes, the function will fail, and we have to rerun the function.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"It is deceptively simple but remarkably powerful."
"Creating a streamlined process from sales through to completion of projects has made an immense difference to our operations."
"WORKetc is a great tool; complex and useful; maybe even too complex with a lot of customized options."
"The most valuable aspect of CRMs, including Zoho CRM, Salesforce, and Microsoft Dynamics, is automation capabilities—without requiring a large team or manual intervention, the system can execute entire business flows in seconds through proper configuration and automation setup."
"The solution is always stable."
"Zoho CRM's automation capabilities have helped to streamline my organization's sales and marketing tasks."
"I have seen a return on investment so far because it is definitely time-saving, and our efficiency improved by utilizing this tool."
"Improved lead conversations through AI-powered scoring and automation helps us focus on the right leads, with end-to-end sales automation managing tasks from lead capture to deal closure, thereby saving time on repetitive tasks."
"There's no installation required."
"Zoho CRM handles the entire customer relationship management, from lead generation to workflows, reports, and lead qualification."
"In general, the solution works well; it's great for keeping track of customers and adding in details."
 

Cons

"It just feels that the current UI is a bit old school."
"We are waiting for a new UI design, and also I think that not having a mobile version is a weakness."
"The UI needs to move forward to a refreshed version but this is in the works."
"The support is not quite good."
"Support could be more knowledgeable."
"The mobile application is a little complicated and could be simplified."
"Some of our clients could not develop their requirements using the product."
"The solution's feature for forecast has limitations."
"Zoho CRM’s customer service can be a little difficult to reach sometimes."
"Sometimes, there are technical glitches. When we add product details, the information disappears. It can be improved from this aspect. Some of the bugs also need to be resolved."
"The integration should be more user-friendly. I think the architecture currently is pretty modularized within the Zoho system."
