Zoho CRM: who it fits and who it does not

Good for
  • Small businesses and small-to-mid-sized sales teams
  • Companies already using the Zoho suite
  • Teams valuing sales forecasting and pipeline management
Not for
  • Organizations wanting AI (Zia) without higher-tier pricing
  • Teams needing consistent customer support
  • Users who need more than basic features on the free plan
The catch
Feature-rich and affordable, but AI is limited to costlier tiers, reporting is cumbersome and support quality is inconsistent.

Streak: who it fits and who it does not

  • Simple, email-driven sales workflows
Not for

The catch
Native Gmail CRM that is easy to adopt, but it only works inside Gmail and reporting is basic, with advanced features on pricier plans.
