For executives
What Zoho can do for your business, and what it costs to get there
You're evaluating whether Zoho is the right platform and whether we're the right partner. Here's the straight answer, without the sales pitch.
The business case for Zoho
Zoho is a full business platform, CRM, accounting, HR, support, projects, and custom apps, at a fraction of the cost of Salesforce, SAP, or stitching together five separate SaaS tools. For most Australian SMEs with 5–200 employees, Zoho One costs $52 USD per user per month and replaces $150–300/user in separate subscriptions.
The platform works. The risk isn't the software, it's the implementation. A poorly configured Zoho stack is as useless as a poorly configured Salesforce instance, but cheaper to fix.
What you can expect from us
A free discovery meeting (60 minutes)
We learn about your business, current tools, team structure, and goals. You learn what Zoho can realistically do for you. No charge, no obligation.
A written recommendation within 5 business days
Product selection, implementation scope, timeline estimate, and hour/cost estimate. You'll know exactly what you're buying before you commit.
Phased delivery with visible progress
We don't disappear for three months and return with a finished system. You see working configurations within the first two weeks and provide feedback as we build.
Training and documentation included
Your team gets trained on the system they'll use daily. We provide process documentation so you're not dependent on us for every small change.
Typical timelines and investment
| Scope | Timeline | Hours | Rate | AUD (approx) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Single product setup (e.g. CRM) | 2–4 weeks | 12–18 | $129/hr | $1,550–$2,320 |
| Two-product integration (e.g. CRM + Books) | 4–6 weeks | 25–40 | $99/hr | $2,475–$3,960 |
| Department rollout (e.g. sales + finance) | 6–10 weeks | 35–50 | $99/hr | $3,465–$4,950 |
| Full Zoho One implementation | 10–16 weeks | 60–120 | Custom quote | Discuss in discovery |
These are ranges based on typical projects. Your discovery meeting produces a specific estimate. See full pricing details →
What we need from your team
- →A stakeholder who can make decisions (you, or someone you delegate to)
- →2–3 hours per week from a subject matter expert in the first month (sales lead, finance manager, etc.)
- →Access to current systems for data export and process documentation
- →Willingness to change processes that don't work, not just digitise them
When Zoho isn't the answer
We'll tell you if Zoho isn't right for your situation. Common cases: you need a clinical practice management system (use a healthcare-specific tool), you have 500+ employees with complex enterprise requirements (consider Salesforce or Dynamics), or you need heavy manufacturing execution (consider an MES). We'd rather lose a deal than implement something that won't work.
