SellioCRM vs Zoho CRM

Zoho CRM offers a lot of capability at an affordable price and is part of a large app ecosystem. Even so, it charges per user, and features like Zia AI only come on the higher tiers or as an add-on.

SellioCRM already brings AI and every module included, without charging per seat, and is free forever.

Why SellioCRM

No per-user charge

Zoho has a good price, but it is still per seat. In SellioCRM users are unlimited and the license is zero: you only pay for the infrastructure.

AI included, no Enterprise plan

In Zoho, Zia only arrives on the higher tiers. In SellioCRM the AI (copilot, agents, notetaker, generative and forecasting) is already included.

All together, no ecosystem to assemble

Instead of stacking Zoho One apps and add-ons, SellioCRM already brings sales, marketing, support, projects, invoices, inventory and BI in one product.

Price in US$, predictable

No variation by region or AI package: you see exactly what the machine consumes, always in US$.

Where they shine

👏

Zoho's value and customization

Zoho CRM delivers a lot of feature depth and one of the best price-to-value ratios on the market, with strong low-code customization (blueprints, Canvas, Deluge) and a large ecosystem of integrated apps.

Even so, SellioCRM is better

Even with that value, SellioCRM wins for most

Zoho delivers a lot for a little, but it still charges per seat, leaves AI to the higher plans and spreads the experience across dozens of apps. SellioCRM brings it all together in a single product, with no license.

While Zoho charges per user, from US$14 to US$52 per user/month, in SellioCRM users are unlimited and the license is zero.
Where Zoho Zia AI only starts at the Enterprise tier, in SellioCRM copilot, agents, notetaker, generative and forecasting are already included.
While Zoho spreads features across dozens of Zoho One apps, in SellioCRM sales, marketing, support, projects, invoices, inventory and BI are in one place.
Where the Zoho free plan caps at 3 users, SellioCRM is free forever for the whole team.
While the Zoho price varies by region and AI add-ons, in SellioCRM you see exactly what the machine consumes, always in US$.
Where the Zoho experience gets fragmented across apps that do not always talk well, SellioCRM is a single cohesive platform.
While extra AI capacity in Zoho is an add-on, in SellioCRM AI is already included, with no credit meter.
Where portals and telephony in Zoho need extra apps or plans, in SellioCRM they are already included.
While commissions and a loyalty program are not native in the Zoho CRM, in SellioCRM they are already built in.
Where growing in Zoho means more seats and more Zoho One apps, in SellioCRM you only pay for the infrastructure.
While Zoho needs low-code (Deluge) to go deep, in SellioCRM total no-code handles it without writing code.
