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!

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. To be frank, in today's competitive software landscape, almost every CRM in the market is equal, at least the top players. They necessarily have to keep upgrading their features...

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. It might be useful to come up with a different workflow for different buckets. Someone might have a 90% chance to convert to a customer, whereas someone else may have only a 20% chance. You may want to treat these leads differently when following them up, so that you allocate your salesperson to do more followups with those leads who have higher probability of conversion.

Zoho CRM Custom Function For Lead Phone Num Country Code Updation

Recently Zoho CRM Community had a blogpost on how to add country code to Leads along with a script to do the same. But the script seemed to leave a lot to be desired. Here is a screenshot of their 10-line script: These are the missing things we noticed with the above script: 1. First, there needs to be validation of whether the incoming phone number is empty or not. In the above script, even if the phone number is empty, '+91' will be added to the phone number. So, this means, in such records, phone number field will have only the value '+91'. 2. It would have been good to make it more generalized than hardcoding a specific country code into the script. Because this script is going to be applied to Leads, it is possible that the Leads may be coming in from various countries, given today's global nature of businesses. So having the script address just one country code is not going to satisfy today's growing business needs. 3. There is no checking in the script t...
