Zoho CRM vs Zoho Bigin

Zoho Bigin and Zoho CRM 
How many of you have broken your head over this?!

Two products that seem to offer the same features! So how do you choose if your company needs Zoho CRM or Zoho Bigin?


If you think Zoho released Bigin by mistake, think again. If Zoho doesn't cannibalise itself, it's competition will. 

So what purpose do these products serve? 

If you are a company that needs software to manage your leads and track your sales team's daily activities, then Bigin should do. 

But if you are a sales heavy company, where you are dependant on your sales team's performance to make your profits, then we recommend a serious lead management software i.e. Zoho CRM. 

Hope that gives you clarity on this. Still not sure if you need to choose Zoho CRM or Zoho Bigin?

    Great comparison! Zoho CRM and Zoho Bigin both serve important but slightly different needs—Bigin is perfect for small businesses or startups looking for a simple, pipeline-focused tool, while Zoho CRM offers more advanced features for scaling operations and complex sales processes. The choice really depends on how detailed your workflows and automation needs are. It’s also helpful to work with a Zoho consulting partners in India who can guide businesses in choosing the right platform and customizing it effectively. Overall, both tools are strong options within the Zoho ecosystem.

What is a CRM software?

When you start a business and are few months into it, you find that many other business owners are using something they call a CRM software to manage their business. So you are compelled to think you also somehow should follow the herd effect and start using a CRM as the first step. Why do I call it a 'herd effect'? We will come to that in a separate post. Right now, let's say you decided you want to use a CRM. You sign up for one of the popular CRM software in the market like Zoho CRM, Salesforce, Microsoft Dynamics, and start entering data. I see that business owners put in a lot of effort to do a detailed comparison of the various CRM software in the market. But they don't put as much effort to find out how to use the software they finally choose. Actually the effort should be in reverse.

What is a CRM software - Part 3 - Lead Followup Workflow

Getting in Leads into the system is only half the story. Now, for the better half - following up with leads. The key to following up with Leads is to maximize conversion, as we know. It’s an ongoing challenge. Market situation may change. Competition landscape will undergo its own changes. So it’s not just enough to have a lead workflow, but it is crucial to measure its ongoing success rate as you keep using the workflow. Let’s talk about this in more detail. 
 Things to Remember Bucket-Based Followup So now we have categorized Leads into buckets, based on strategies we discussed in the previous post.

Also you can connect draw.io with other storage systems like Google drive, Dropbox, and few others so you can maintain versions of your workflows and also easily share with others. So let's get to it. Here are the things you might want to think about deeply and chart out a workflow. I will share a template for this workflow next week. Meanwhile, it's useful to try this exercise yourself. Feel free to write to me if you have questions or feel stuck. 1. Lead Source Do you have different sources from which you get leads? How do these sources differ in: a. The quality of leads they brin...
