I “stomach” the price because the software is so helpful. Love the product, but would switch to anything comparable if the price was more reasonable.

I love the ease of navigating system, cloud based software and overall time savings received from utilizing Esticom.

I have three other colleagues  and we start to try it together and all of us are satisfied with the performance of the software in different trades like plumbing, masonry, and concrete.

I love that it is in the cloud and accessible from anywhere. It also integrates with Zapier.

We have been using the system on and off for over a year and its a great tool to use.

The lack of being able to input deduct alternates.

Every one that I have dealt with at Esticom has been friendly, professional, and helpful. Customer service has been exemplary.

This is a great software for anyone who wants to shorten the amount of time and money spent on estimating. It produces great print edits for workers and customers.

Personal - Customer support staff have field experience as well as excellent product knowledge which translates to excellent on-boarding sessions and quick answers to questions.

My overall experience has  been good. The phone consultation when I initially signed up was very helpful, and the online tutorials helped answer some of my question.

Esticom has saved us a ton of time on how we build quotes for our customers.

Assemblies are all in USD and there is no way to convert to CAD besides importing wholesale pricing and building all new assemblies.

Covering additional expenditures like overhead and waste is wonderful. Ability to apply difficulty levels is nice.

The estimate submission - breakout of the pst is awkward. I would more flexability with my final price to submit to client.

There are not many icons for the fire protection industry I work in. This makes it difficult when creating mocked up drawings for the customer.

Easy to use electrican friendly. Going from take off to plan to estimate is very easy.

I like how easy it is to use, very intuitive. The menu is simple and effective.

Cannot adjust descriptions in the quote page (must do it in the takeoff screen). Some odd quirks, which are not deal breaker but annoying.

We have gone from two to three days of putting together a bid to 2 to 3 hours. It's simple, clean interface, and the support is great.

It has been an amazing resource for acquiring and organizing our leads and the calendar and note taking ability is unmatched.

The most hated part of Zoho is its Customer support , it is very pathetic and sometimes it is very glitchy which makes the CRM unusable.

Easy to use, has a good free tier, innovative, friendly UI and UX, a good product in general, good mobile application.

Easy setup, they have different templates for different industries which is nice, can quite easily adjust it with the Zoho Creator, customer support is great too.

This is such an amazing application and customer support on this product is amazing.

I LOVE THAT WE CAN ACCESS FROM ANYWHERE. WOULD LOVE TO INCORPORATED FOR THE FULL STAFF BUT IS BEING USED FOR CERTAIN STAFF ONLY.

The best is contacts and accounts flexibility. Also seamless integration with Zoho Finance suite, which is very good.

Great product for the price. Easy of use and being compatible with other CRM programs, makes it a winner for our company.

My overall experience has been one filled with struggle and frustration.

I really loved the software and recommended it to many of my customers and they are happy with it for months now.

We've got some problem with the email invitations often sent into the spam folder of our customers... but it's a common problem with other CRM I guess.

It is useful for business purpose as it helps maintaining connection with clients and helps to build great customer relations.

I have used other platforms, however there is something very user friendly about this solution, the customer support team and extremley helpful and on hand to answer any enquiries they are patient.

The integration is really awesome, also tracking the invoices and payment really impressive, just I'm not totally satisfied with​ the interface.

Reporting part is also good as compared to other clients, apart from this it analytics capabilities are also awesome.

You get different answers from different customer representatives and the lack of an account manager is painful. App store is full of apps that barely work or aren't maintained.

The reporting system of this software is the best thing I like most about this software. The format of reporting is the best thing.

Best CRM available in the market, Very easy to setup and use. My clients love using the CRM and very user friendly software tool.

Overall, we are happy with Zoho. They are good people, provide great support, and you can't beat the value for money equation.

It’s great to have such an amazing chat support. Overall I’m loving this database and all of its functions.

I love the free account and so does my team. It’s easy to use (once setup) and customer service has always been great.

This is a very easy to use CRM that helps stay on top of all my contacts. Amazing features for a free crm.

This is absolutely great CRM for a medium and big companies. One of the best clients cards, easy integrations and great solution for sales and marketing.

This is a good software to use for the beginners, support is awesome and compared to other alternatives in the market this is pocket friendly as well.

India customer service that can be hard to understand, the use of CRM platform can be confusing and disjointed.

Misleading information during the trial phase. Always upselling their useless apps through Zoho one.

Highly recommended and nice product for startups especially, who are looking for budget friendly and reliable product.

Great features, great integrations, nice price. Good instructions, and even a full course on Linkedin Learning.

The UI is so confusing that I had trouble discovering the features that I needed.

Sometimes, i can even login to the platform and keep showing an error for the Captcha. Other than that, the email template that are provided is difficult to edit and not many option to customized it.

I primarily use it for business e-mails and internal communication. I love how clean and organized it keeps all of my e-mails, and I love the tabs and how customizable my inbox is.

Reminders are extremely helpful in followups. Campaign analytics are really awesome and gives the best analytics to identify the top leads.

The RingCentral integration is especially great with company wide caller ID that syncs with all Modules and the integration between the Zoho ecosystem is just great.

The calendar is pretty good, it has a very good and constant feedback, graphs and charts are really useful.

We are happy overall with the Zoho experience. It is perfect for us to collect sales data and to see graphically where we are for the year.

It is super user friendly and customizable to fit your needs. It allows you to really connect with your customers - with ease.
