In my opinion, Zoho CRM blows its competition out of the water,” said Jamie Saari-Alvarez, President, Cobblestones Communications. “The software offers everything its competitors do for a price that is affordable for any business owner. I would highly recommend any business that does any type of sales activity to make Zoho CRM their online software of choice.”
