Likelihood to Recommend
Not a huge replacement for a CRM but anything else can be handled. Really an all in once platform with no speed issues or crowded pool of features. Ideal for a startup and alternative to mainstream, heavy and expensive alternatives

If you have a website through which your clients engage (either sales or support) your offerings, then you absolutely need a live chat tool. Having used Zoho for a while now, I can absolutely recommend it. If you have not used a chat tool before but you have an online store then you should definitely explore this option. They offer a free trial so you can test it to see what response you get but for sales related websites, this will pay for itself.

Cons
  • switching overe workspaces is bit tedious at the moment
  • more granular control over what users can edit inside workspace -> specific items or any item under a specific collection
  • currently its not clear who edited an item last -> footer that updates each time item has been edited and by whom
  • support for smartsheets. only because we use them ;)
  • on prem version? (easier to sell this to my boss)

  • Zoho people notifications can be added in Cliq like birthday reminders, leave trackers

Cliq is essential software for our communication. Because we are an office of both in-house and remote employees we must have a unified communication platform to speak to another in real-time. Cliq offers us that platform in an easy-to-use format that allows for both 1:1 and team communication occurring all at once.

Support Rating
My team has an individual dedicated to content management and Nuclino is one of her job descriptions. It's nice knowing she is able to handle any issues that arise before we even realize they exist. We haven't had any technical issues since implementation so that's been a very pleasant experience.

Online Training
No answers on this topic
Excellent support. Online training and supporting videos, and resources are more than sufficient to get started. Moreover, their support channel, especially the chat window, is very helpful and provides an instant solution to all our queries. For any complicated issue, they always get back by email with the solution and on occasions even call back.

Implementation Rating
No answers on this topic
Implementation is very simple and easy. Create a Zoho account (free or paid), send/ receive an invite, log in, verify your credentials and get started. Admin would have created the channels for you, and you start contributing. The entire process is smooth, and you can get started within minutes. The Admin has to work at the backend, initially, and decide on the permissions for the individual and the team and set up permissions for access to other applications too. This needs to be planned out, tested and implemented.

Alternatives Considered
Nuclino has both advantages and disadvantages compared to other products. Its main strength is ease of use and speed. It works very well for teams that prioritize efficiency and progress. We have found that it's important to use the right tools in the right parts of the organization. Nuclino works well for some teams, but not for large-scale initiatives or parts of the organization that require very robust and more feature-rich solutions. It’s not for everyone, and for large or complex organizations, it’s not a one-size-fits-all solution. Use it where it fits best, and it certainly stacks up well with clear strengths.

Essentially the same style of platform. Aside from any "bots" (which I don't use anyways), they appear to do the same thing. But Zoho Cliq comes packed into the Zoho One platform. It's a useful component in a suite of communication tools that allows our office to work and speak to one another in an abundance of ways.

Scalability
No answers on this topic
The system works perfectly well. At times, we have faced issues with the desktop application - it doesn't start, or takes time to start, or even logs off on its own. However, the browser as well as the mobile application work perfectly well, and we have never faced issues with them
