Why is Zoho CRM + Google Workspace integration necessary?
Your sales team just don't use CRM in their day-to-day operations. Most likely, they are using a host of other applications like Gmail, Docs, Drive, and Calendar. Using this group of apps to handle your business data can come with its own share of troubles — unorganized data, scattered contacts, manual data entry, and disconnected marketing sources. With the Zoho CRM and Google Workspace integration, your sales teams can close deals from one single space and access all their favourite tools without having to jump between different platforms.

Google Contacts is a basic contact management solution where you can store basic details of your leads such as their phone number, email address and location. While Contact managers may be easy to use, they lack immensely when it comes to running a business. You need to generate and organize leads, run campaigns, manage deal pipelines and derive actionable insights from your data. Google Contacts lacks when it comes to managing customers for businesses of any size.
Google offers a contact management solution called Google Contacts, but it does not offer any real customer management solution.
Your business needs a CRM which can not only import all your contacts from cloud platforms such as Google and Outlook, but also keep them in sync to prevent duplication. Zoho CRM's robust integration with Google gives you everything you need to manage contacts across multiple platforms.
Zoho CRM is the industry-standard when it comes to integrating your Google Apps. Once you integrate your Google account with Zoho CRM, your sales team can experience productivity enhancing functionality such as Single-sign on, Google Contacts and Calendar sync, Google Ads Campaign data sync, and also native integrations with Google Drive, Google Sites, Gmail and Google Tasks.
Spreadsheets have been in use since the early 80s as a way to manage sales data. While Google Docs (Google Sheets), an online spreadsheet platform may be simpler to use, they lack any kind of sales tracking functionality which makes it really hard to manage your business. Lack of lead-deal visibility, poor organization of data and failure to control duplication in sales data leads to your team's productivity getting drained. And, more importantly in the world of GDPR and privacy-first business culture, you simply cannot leave crucial customer data on spreadsheets which can be copied and exported by anyone with access.
The Google Workspace integration is free and works with every edition of Zoho CRM.
