“ZOHO CRM Facilitates Automation and Meets Business Management Needs”

5.0
Mar 19, 2026
We started working with Zoho CRM to manage our customer database. One of the most interesting things is that practically all our needs are already anticipated and met. For example, we integrated seamlessly with Zoho's email marketing system and designed workflows that have allowed us to automate lead management. Zoho Telephony has been another highlight. Access to call integration makes our work much easier. The support is incredible. They resolve everything, and for a SaaS platform, they dedicate a significant amount of time to helping you. The technical staff is truly excellent.

Good: CRM where you can most customize fields and modules. Support automating workflows, sales and tasks so that we do not have to rely on remembering. Bad: but the tasks cannot be related to each other .

Zoho CRM Likes & Dislikes

Like

What I value most about Zoho CRM is its 24/7/365 availability. There are very few outages, and they're resolved quickly. This is vital for us; we depend on it. Another key aspect is that it covers all our needs. The Zoho family is extensive and comprehensive. This allows us to use Zoho Book for accounting, Invoicing for billing, and the integration is robust. Since we're a SaaS provider, Zoho Subscriptions is a great help in completing the entire process.

Like

What I value most is the granular level of detail I can access for troubleshooting. Being able to monitor WebRTC sessions and SDP negotiations in real-time has made it much easier for me to identify why a call might be failing at the signaling layer.

Dislike

One drawback is that, having integrated a lot of products from various sources, sometimes the synchronization is not optimal.

Automated Translation from Spanish
Dislike

The Pro features are focused on higher-tier plans: several advanced capabilities ( including part of the AI) remain at higher levels

Dislike

The initial learning curve for the command-line interface (Fs_cli) is quite steep. For a new QA engineer, understanding how to filter through thousands of lines of logs to find a specific SDP negotiation error can be overwhelming without a lot of prior training.
