Pros

“We use it for new leads, tracking stages of leads and bookings, contact details, tasks, sending emails and more.”
SM

Sherry M.

Executive Manager

“I especially valued its high level of customization and seamless integration with other Zoho applications, which made it possible to tailor the system to specific business needs.”
RS

Radha S.

Legal Assistant

“It allowed me to tailor workflows, fields, and modules to match specific business processes rather than forcing us to adapt to the software.”

Legal Assistant

Cons

“It is capable of things that were way beyond the scope of my organization's needs. And it was just too expensive to justify renewing our contract when we only used a quarter of its functionality.”
