Pros and cons

It's very nice to have everything at the same place. And the integration between the various tools they have are superb.
This can save you a huge amount of time and money so you really get to focus on the actions needed to grow your business. Zoho One does more than you need it to do, and that's a good thing.
Every thing is at one place and well integrated and easy to use the applications from all the platforms. This helps team to coordinate well deliver better.
They are irresponsive, careless and super rude. It was the most awful experience I have ever had in all the vendors I have dealt with in the past.
I am sad to say that I would not recommend Zoho to anyone without the stomach to deal with their terrible service and without an internal team member that can develop around their design flaws.
The only gripe I have about Zoho ONE is that once you sign up for it, you're stuck with having to pay for each additional team member.

Zoho One is an OUTSTANDING value for anyone that uses several Zoho applications. It is unbelievable!

Reviewed 5 years ago

The integration of the apps are wonderful!

Pros

I use Zoho as the platform to support ALL our clients. Depending on how we are supporting them, we may use one or several Zoho applications for one client. Zoho One is great for the clients we use several applications to support because it is EXTREMELY cost effective. In some cases we can save hundreds of dollars. When they rolled out Zoho One this past summer, I could not believe what I read!

Cons

The only down side is Zoho One doesn't allow several different logins for the same user seat. They track the IP address. I can understand the reason because of the low price, why they want every user to have their own login. For us, we may have several team members servicing one client. It is not cost effective for us to purchase several seats to service one client. Also, customer service is not always the greatest.

Great product & more importantly Great customer service!!!

Reviewed 5 years ago
Pros

Really flexible and easy to use, the streamlining capabilities and customizations are unlimited! One thing I really like the most is typically offshore companies are hard to communicate and get quick fast support. Zoho has I have to say one of the best support teams I've ever worked with. I've called them in the middle of the nite all the way to a Sunday evening and they are always right on top of it and are even willing to remote into my machine to debug issues i created in the configurations. Any tech who has dealt with large support teams knows this is usually the most frustrating issues dealing with third parties. Wonderful company and great products!

Cons

Some of the functions are limited but you can always customize it using they're scripting tools and api. Not really a issue but if i have to say what i like least it would be this.

Not for Most Users

Reviewed a year ago

First off, let me see that I am a huge Zoho evangelist. I am a Zoho User Group Leader, I have two companies on Zoho One and have been a user for almost 5 years now. That said, I would caution most users from using Zoho for many of the same reasons that many other people here have noted, namely weak or non-existent customer service, increasing prices with a reduction of functionality, and buggy/flawed designs on new applications and enhancements to existing applications. Just look at the fact that they went from 1 TB/user on Zoho Mail to 50 GB/user to get an idea of how drastic their cuts have been. I am sad to say that I would not recommend Zoho to anyone without the stomach to deal with their terrible service and without an internal team member that can develop around their design flaws.

Pros

I love that Zoho is constantly evolving and adding new functionality to its software.

Cons

The customer support is horrible. Most people you speak with have no experience with the software and cannot answer the most basic questions. Sometimes they even make up answers to get off the phone. It is actually absurd how bad the service is.

Great Value but Confusing Setup

Reviewed a year ago
Pros

Zoho One gives companies access to basically all Zoho programs which makes it an exceptional value if using more than one (ex. Zoho email, CRM, Project, etc..). It's only $50 per user per month and therefore is one of the cheapest options for a full business setup.

Cons

Administration is very confusing when compared with alternatives such as Google Workspace. There is no seamless way to transition between Zoho programs, like a centralized dashboard, and finding your way to an Admin page is nearly impossible (even when bookmarked). Even though it's Zoho "One" and all the programs are Zoho, it feels more like individual programs rather than a single workspace.

Not for the Solopreneur

Reviewed 5 years ago

I would say keep it up Zoho. I believe their mission to be a one stop SAAS is perfectly achieveable and the world would be a bleaker place without them. As for me, after 1 or 2 months of trying to offload everything onto Zoho One, I end up subscribing only to Zoho Books, which ironically, was the reason why I came across Zoho in the first place.

Pros

Value, you get a lot for what you pay for. Responsive customer support. You could run a entire business or even a franchise on Zoho One. One stop service, single log ins. If you are less demanding, this suite would suit you. If not, read on...Initially, I paid A35 per month, then it became apparent that I somehow escaped the 5 employee requirement.

Cons

Zoho One promised integration amongst all their apps and data would flow seamlessly from one app to another. Not true, and it was painful to constantly contact Zoho support regarding setup issues. Eventually, you figure it out. A lot of the apps need polish esp the iOS apps, which couldn't be split screen. I came to this conclusion: I might as well stick to using disparate apps, and run Toby on them for single screen access. Or use Zapier or MS Flow to connect them.

I wish I could give 100 stars review with ZOHO One

Reviewed 4 years ago

WOW! We saved so much money in subscription costs when we rolled everything to ZOHO One. We had 11 different companies we were paying money to. When we switched, we saved $480,000 is subscription costs. We love paying one low rate for all our employees rather than using separate vendors. As a huge bonus, our internal data is much more organized since all ZOHO apps communicate with each other. This keeps all of our team members on the same footing.

Pros

The capabilities of the suite of products is unmatched! The price is what really blew me away.

Cons

no cons. Its great software for a super affordable price.

So many tools, so little time

Reviewed 4 years ago
Pros

Zoho One is THE all encompassing business software that a company of any size can use. It's ultimate goal is to streamline everything for you so you don't have to use multiple vendors/softwares/subscriptions to perform your daily business tasks. It has so many apps and features, we're still learning and experimenting with it even after over a year of use!

Cons

The layout, workflow, and wording within some of the apps can be a little confusing because it may not align with the terminology your company understands.

One SaaS to rule them all

Reviewed a year ago

Putting everything related to our client interactions (marketing, communication, tracking, data, etc) under "one roof" can be somewhat of a challenge when there are different products used for different areas of the business. Zoho One has allowed to continue using the products that "get it done" while integrating smoothly with each other and providing ease of access to staff as needed.

Pros

Quick and easy integration, truly puts everything "under one roof" with an intuitive interface and great functionality.

Cons

I have found the interface to be lagging at time, with occasionally long load time when moving between products. (Internet speed was tested multiple time, we know this is not an internet related issue)

Zoho One truly is the operating system for your Business

Reviewed 5 years ago
Pros

Zoho one is amazing for the price!!! Absolutely nothing can touch it or is anywhere close. With Zoho One you get external sales and support software, internal chat, HR, accounting inventory, email, cloud storage, office suite and so much more! Plus Zoho creator lets you build custom apps to automate your processes. I can't say enough good things about Zoho One and I certainly can't go into detail on every app included, but Zoho is contantly updating their apps to improve the features and UI. I have been using Zoho One for just under a year now and while it's not perfect is good and continually improving. It's also relatively easy to get ahold of their support team which is great at answering questions!

Cons

I think one of the hardest things with Zoho One is knowing where to start. There are so many different apps and each one requires setup and they can integrate with one another in different ways. It can be hard to keep track of what's what. Also, because the company moves quickly and is constantly improving, there can be features or processes that seem to be left over from an old version and don't necessarily work the same across all the apps.

ZOHO ONE - Why, Why use anything else when starting your company?

Reviewed 4 years ago

The entire business is run exclusively on this platform. With a partner program in place at Zoho we can actually go and preach this as a solution to our own customers.

Pros

The Swiss Army knife for any business - they understand and want to help the SMB market play like Fortune 100 company. From CRM, Web sites, Email marketing, Chat, Accounting, Business Expenses tracking the list goes on and for only $30/user (note everyone in the company needs to be enrolled) - there is no way in this industry can compete. There may be better products when compared on a one-to-one basis but the suite? Impossible to compete.

Cons

It's evolving and sometimes the interfaces may not be as sweet as other competing SaaS players in the marketplace.

The best all-in-one tool for SMEs.

Reviewed 2 years ago

I have been trying to launch my legal services business since before COVID-19 and I have experimented and used free trials for all of the major service providers including Hubspot, Salesforce, Pipe Drive etc. I keep returning to Zoho One due to the impressive range of applications that whilst may not be the best on the market, offer everything I could need and more. I can run my business according to a simple monthly fee and still offer clients everything from virtual meetings and online bookings to client portals.

Pros

Comprehensive suite of applications all included for the one monthly fee. Professional and customisable user interface.

Cons

Moderate learning curve. Settings and administration functions are hidden in various locations.

Turn on autopilot in business

Reviewed 5 years ago
Pros

For my company - this is a real magic wand. While the team is working, I can do my favorite things. It is enough to determine the tasks and conduct a brainstorm. The program itself steers all processes. Each department receives its tasks and presents results. To keep track of everything, it's enough for me to spend a couple of hours a day.

Cons

Do not rely too much on this system. The idea is good, but the human factor still has not been canceled. Sometimes you have to drop everything and intervene urgently if something goes wrong. The system also allows you to track such places.

I wanted an integrated system which Zoho One provides.

Pros

I get more "bang for my buck" by using Zoho One than if I subscribed individually to the various Zoho Apps that I use. It is also useful to go to one dashboard for these apps, which I can arrange in a way that suits me, to manage the apps.

Zoho One is where it's at.

Reviewed 5 years ago

The integration options with Zoho allows you to integrate with other zoho apps and other apps from outside zoho.

Pros

Being able to use most of Zoho's Apps for one low cost per employee is great. everyone will have access to all of the apps, as long as the admin assigns them access.

Cons

Tech Support, since each app within ZOHO is a different Team, each team has their own tech support, so when you have a problem with integration issue between 2 modules, each team blames the other and theirs no consolidated support that get to the bottom of the issue.

Zoho is a cost effective, all-inclusive software for technical teams, but lacks strong UX & features

Reviewed 5 years ago
Pros

Zoho One is an incredible value for the money. With over 40 apps, Zoho One does it all. While some apps have more features than others, we found this solution to integrate well with other tools and never ran into limited functionality. We had pleasant experiences with their support team.

Cons

Zoho One is a jack of all trades, master of none. For example, their 'Hubspot competitor' marketing app is nowhere near as feature-rich as Hubspot. That said, it would be great for small teams that just need basic marketing automation. We tried Zoho for a month and ended up not moving forward because we had disparate, better tools for the individual functions. Additionally, the user experience it geared toward technical people and isn't as polished as software like Basecamp or Asana. While our technical team had no problem working with it, our services teams found it difficult to set up. I would recommend Zoho to small teams that need lots of tools for little investment.

So Many Options

Reviewed 4 years ago
Pros

Everything integrates with each other. This subscription includes all of their software (that can be purchased on their own), and it all just works well together. The ability to connect your domains to it to personalize some of the applications is fantastic. My favorite apps in it so far are Books, Desk, Contact Manager, and Subscriptions.

Cons

It's really hard to get a hold of someone for onboarding- I haven't been able to schedule something and keep "missing" their calls. For a company that has a meeting scheduling software it's a little funny we haven't used it to book something! Luckily I can do most of the onboarding myself and am just creating my list of questions for when I do get someone.

unreliable with support as described above. Doubting my decision in spite of recommendations I received.

I am completely at a loss re: support. I have twice made appointments for my consultant to go over the inventory module of Zoho. They have twice failed to show for the appointment even though I called (on my own initiative) to confirm 18 hours ahead. It is a waste of my time and my money.
