Last modified on: Thursday, 28th Dec, 2023
These changes in the setup page are currently in effect for all users in all DCs.

Dear customers,

We're pleased to give you a heads-up on the upcoming revamp of the Zoho CRM Setup Page.

These updates have been made with careful consideration to improve the organization and visibility of the setup page, ultimately enhancing your overall experience and efficiency on our platform.

We intend to provide further details on the motives behind this transformation to ensure your comprehension and acceptance of the enhancements we have implemented. 

Why are the changes made?

Simplified navigation
Our objective is to make it easier for you to find what you need when you need it. The revamped setup page offers a more intuitive and streamlined structure, reducing clicks and search time. It's designed to save you precious minutes and enhance your overall efficiency.

Consistency and clarity
In this update, we've standardized naming conventions, regrouped related features, and clarified menu structures. This consistency not only simplifies navigation but also reduces the likelihood of confusion, making your Zoho CRM experience more user-friendly.

User-centric approach

This redesign has been influenced by the feedback we have received from our community, taking into account the requirements, preferences, and recommendations. We have put in significant effort to develop a setup page that seamlessly integrates with your workflow.

Future-ready

The new setup page is built to seamlessly accommodate the requirements of a continuously evolving CRM, keeping the line of future enhancements and features in mind.
