Connecting Ecwid with Zoho CRM

You can build your customer base in Zoho customer tracking system. With Zoho CRM, you can better understand the behaviour of customers to better communicate with them. This can help you tune your marketing efforts, build a lasting relationship with customers, work with leads and make more sales.

You can connect your Ecwid store with Zoho CRM with the code-free Zapier service where you can select a trigger (when something should happen) and an action (what should happen). As a result, you will have an automated task, a “zap.”
