    Microsoft Dynamics 365Zoho CRM
    Considered Both Products
    Microsoft
    Chose Microsoft Dynamics 365
    In my point of view, Zoho CRM is really good but it just provides a cloud based solution. We needed an on-premises solution, therefore we choose Microsoft CRM instead of Zoho CRM. But if we want to compare these two software solutions, I would say, both solutions are good and …

    Chose Microsoft Dynamics 365
    It is Less Costly Compared to the other CRM.
    For call Centre Management this Works best when we used The dialer.
    Using Dialer and CRM side by Side gives the best Result.

    Chose Microsoft Dynamics 365
    Microsoft Dynamics was part of a system overhaul for a local school, and we looked at many products. If we had used it for a company with low turnover, then it might have been more feasible. They needed something a new person could learn quickly, someone who might also be …

    Chose Microsoft Dynamics 365
    The software stacks up because the integration between this software and other software by Microsoft improves the workflow in the office in a great way. The most important part is the relations between MS Dynamics 365 and other party software, whose integration are really …

    Zoho
    Chose Zoho CRM
    It is decent against what is offered in the market, it follows certain philosophy of CRM which may not be a perfect fit for everyone.
    There are not so many guides and new updates push for differentiation.
    Formatting and bugs appearances are often an issue.

    Chose Zoho CRM
    ZOHO CRM is not as good as HubSpot but it is much easier to use than Microsoft Dynamics.
    Incentivized
    Chose Zoho CRM
    Zoho CRM is similar to Salesforce in that it integrates well with other platforms. Zoho CRM has a lot more features available and is newer than Salesforce, so it seems like it has better features than Salesforce did. We selected Zoho CRM for the robust options they had …

    Chose Zoho CRM
    We felt that with everything considered, that Zoho CRM, provided the most value for the cost.
    Incentivized
    Chose Zoho CRM
    Zoho is very similar in my experience to HubSpot CRM; it's arguable that it falls slightly short of the standard that HubSpot does. Having said that, for most organisations I would imagine that the capabilities of Zoho would be more than enough, for a number of reasons. Others …

    Chose Zoho CRM
    Salesforce was too expensive at 3x the cost, not as customizable, couldn't meet our project needs and developers were +2x the cost. MS Dynamics, although customizable, was larger than our.

    Chose Zoho CRM
    Using Zoho CRM has been a great experience because of its scalability and ease of use. As a robust design, the solution is easy to set up and comes in an out-of-the-box. This platform is ideal for small-to-medium-sized businesses looking for easy and quick growth. It is the …

    Chose Zoho CRM
    We are currently evaluating the possibility of moving from Zoho to MS to see if this is a better fit for our business without increasing costs too heavily

    Chose Zoho CRM
    We looked at Microsoft Dynamics since it would integrate with our Office 365, but the price was too much. Zoho [CRM] had the best reviews and had a better price point.
    Incentivized
    Chose Zoho CRM
    We found Zoho CRM to be much more customizable than any of the many different software we tested before selecting Zoho. There are many cheaper, but these often only have one or two ways to manage a sale, where as Zoho can be programmed to do almost anything. There was a …

    Chose Zoho CRM
    Zoho CRM is very similar to Salesforce, but without all the bloat. Salesforce does have better reports and pretty colors, but it is overloaded with unnecessary tools.
    Microsoft Dynamics CRM is the worst CRM I have used. It is very difficult to navigate, and wasted hours of my …
