Zoho One Partner in South Africa: Implementation and Consulting

Zoho One implementation in South Africa: Flowpeak sets up Zoho One for businesses in South Africa, most often for mining and mining services, financial services, and wine and agriculture teams. Zoho One gives you many apps on one licence. The risk is turning them all on at once. We map your process, switch on only the apps you need, connect them, and roll out in phases so your team adopts each one.

From the founder

What happens when nobody trains the team

A company in Dubai came to me after cutting its Zoho One licences from 100 users to 2. Their previous partner had not trained the team, so people stopped using the apps they were paying for. We are now helping them recover. A Zoho One rollout only pays off when each app is set up for how people work and the team is shown how to use it.

Zoho ERP or Zoho One for a manufacturer?

Manufacturers often ask me whether to choose Zoho ERP or Zoho One. If the pain is mostly on the shop floor, stock and costing, the depth of Zoho ERP matters, where it is available. If you also need sales, HR, support and custom apps connected, Zoho One covers more ground. We compare both against your own process before you buy any licence.
