"Organized Team Chats and Seamless Zoho Integrations"

5/5

What do you like best about Zoho Cliq?

What I like most about Zoho Cliq is that it keeps team communication organized without feeling overwhelming. Between channels, direct messages, and the built-in collaboration features, it’s easy to stay connected and quickly track down important conversations when you need them. I also appreciate how well it integrates with other Zoho apps, since that cuts down on context switching and makes day-to-day work feel more efficient. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zoho Cliq?

One thing I dislike about Zoho Cliq is that the interface can feel a bit cluttered, especially when you're part of many channels. Finding older messages or files isn't always as intuitive as it could be, and some advanced features have a learning curve. While it's a solid collaboration tool overall, improving navigation and search would make the experience even better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Zoho Cliq solving and how is that benefiting you?

Zoho Cliq solves the problem of scattered team communication by bringing chats, channels, calls, and file sharing into one place. It helps me stay updated on projects, collaborate with teammates in real time, and reduce the need to switch between multiple apps. This saves time, improves communication, and makes it easier to keep track of conversations and tasks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Nice product to chat with the colleague"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Zoho Cliq?

It is allowing to chat, meetings, and screen sharing from ZOHO CRM. ZOHO is always great, They are providing all business-related software. If we start to use any one Zoho product, automatically we will start to use the other Zoho products, because all products are integrated together. We arrange our business meetings through Zoho Cliq only. It has a calendar and reminders also. In the Zoho Cliq dashboard, we can check the upcoming meeting and the history of all conversations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zoho Cliq?

Zoho Cliq is nicely viewed in ZOHO CRM & Books. I installed a CLIQ application in Windows. It is logging out after the particular session completion. It is irritating to log in every time. Because we are communicating with our employees through this, if it is idle, it automatically logs out. Please remove the session for this. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Zoho Cliq solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are communicating with our colleague from crm and book very quickly from the same page. It is nice—no need to open another tab for chatting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Cost-Effective Alternative to Slack for Small Teams"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Zoho Cliq?

I find Zoho Cliq to be a very good platform for internal team communication. It allows us to do check-ins, checkouts, and meetings, making it a cost-effective alternative to Slack. I particularly like the channels feature, which is similar to Slack's, as it allows us to create specific channels for different departments like sales and marketing, HR, and admin, facilitating a collaborative way of interacting with our team. These features make Zoho Cliq sufficient for startups and growing teams, and it justifies its cost because it offers almost all the same features as a tool like Slack at a fraction of the cost. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zoho Cliq?

I think the UI is kind of complex for some users. It can be trimmed down and a softer version of the UI could be more helpful. For some of the team members, the setup actually took some time because they were not redirected to the chat box. Initially signing up for Zoho Cliq can be slightly overwhelming because there are some things that are cluttered and some features that need to trim down. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Zoho Cliq solving and how is that benefiting you?

Zoho Cliq solves our internal communication needs at a lower cost compared to Slack, with similar features. It's a cost-effective solution for small teams, large startups and supports check-ins, check-outs, and meetings, enhancing collaboration. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Powerful “Flow State” Messaging, but a Steep Learning Curve for Beginners"

3.5/5

What do you like best about Zoho Cliq?

You don’t have to “tab-hop” just to reply to a message. If you’re updating a deal in the CRM and a colleague pings you, you can respond right there without breaking what you’re doing, which helps you stay in your “flow state” longer.

Cliq also lets you “Fork” specific messages into a separate private or group chat. That keeps the main channel clean, while the side discussion continues in its own space.

I also like that it shows who is “Checked-in,” who’s at lunch, and even who’s currently in a meeting, so it’s easier to tell when someone is available.

And you can start a “Huddle” (a quick audio/video call) for up to 10,000 participants, which is significantly higher than most competitors’ standard tiers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zoho Cliq?

Beginners often find it difficult to navigate the deep settings and extensive features (like bots, forks, and huddles). It lacks the "plug-and-play" simplicity of something like WhatsApp or even basic Slack. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Zoho Cliq solving and how is that benefiting you?

You can reply to a teammate while you’re still inside your CRM or Mail inbox, and you can also pull up the data you need without having to switch contexts. It brings back the “tap on the shoulder” culture: you can tell at a glance whether it’s a good time to ping someone or if they’re in the middle of a deep-focus session.

The scheduling messages is the best feature of zoho cliq. This is main communication channel in our organisation. It have my features that i like, first the scheduling message, the big file data transfer, easy self message - they have TAZ bot for it.I use this daily for internal communication. When i started using it, it was smooth implementation. In our organisation, we have many zoho products and they are integrated which makes the work easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing as such, this is good communication platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Zoho Cliq solving and how is that benefiting you?

"Smooth Transition and Excellent Integration"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Zoho Cliq?

I like that Zoho Cliq has a dark mode and the connection between Zoho CRM, Zoho Desk, and Zoho Cliq has been useful. It also allows us to have voice calls if needed, and I find the app on my phone useful without killing my battery. The transition was smooth considering we already had Zoho Desk configured, and I appreciate the ease of setup. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zoho Cliq?

It will tell me I have a notification but then won't let me see where it is located and I can't access it. It will also close opened channels on me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Zoho Cliq solving and how is that benefiting you?

I use Zoho Cliq for office communication and coordination, making it easy to see active users and get task assistance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Effortless Team Communication, Few Glitches"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Zoho Cliq?

I really like Zoho Cliq for its ease of communication and how simple it is to use. There is no learning curve, which is great. It has a mobile application, a desktop application, and a web version, so I can use it anywhere. The communication with other colleagues is very simple, and I don't have to rely on phone calls or other software like WhatsApp for professional communication. It's easy to form groups, and moderator-level access is simple to configure. Company-wide announcements are straightforward to make, and you can mute or hide certain groups if needed. I can also make calls within Zoho Cliq itself, which is handy. What makes it really superb is the combination of all features, like screen sharing and video calls. I don't need to set up a meeting every time I need to share my screen. I can just ring up my colleagues and share my screen right away, with no hassles. The initial setup was very, very easy too; I just had to set up a directory of people and IDs. Although initial adoption took a couple of days, it was very simple after that. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zoho Cliq?

The ringtone is very irritating. I usually use the app on mute. Also, the notification sound is quite loud, especially on desktop. The mobile app glitches sometimes and calls don't get cut even after you've hung up the phone. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Zoho Cliq solving and how is that benefiting you?

Zoho Cliq simplifies communication by replacing phone calls and other apps for professional interactions. It enables easy group formation and moderator configuration, and supports company-wide announcements. Screen sharing, video calls, and internal calling make remote collaboration hassle-free.

"Effortless Team Communication, Needs Simplified Channel Management"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Zoho Cliq?

I appreciate that with Zoho Cliq, I can communicate with my internal team without needing to log in through WhatsApp, allowing for fast responses via my laptop. It shows the current status of my colleagues, like if they're on a call or in a meeting, which helps me anticipate their response times. I like its several features such as image and document sharing, voice note, and video sharing, which means I don't need to switch to other applications to communicate with my team. The ability to create notes and sync with my CRM is a big plus, as it ensures I don't miss any important notification or message even if I'm not logged into Zoho Cliq. The initial setup was very quick and easy, making the whole experience seamless. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zoho Cliq?

I think the channel creation is not that user-friendly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Zoho Cliq solving and how is that benefiting you?

I use Zoho Cliq for internal communication, allowing quick message exchanges without needing WhatsApp. It shows teammates' current status and syncs with my CRM, so I never miss important notifications. Image, document, and note-sharing features keep everything centralized. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
