Focus Group : Functions 101 - A webinar series
A lot of businesses require their CRM to perform activities that are out-of-the-box. And dynamic as Zoho CRM is, a lot of these scenarios can be achieved by running simple functions. They help you update data in CRM modules or in third-party applications and automate most of your business processes.
We're organizing a four part webinar series to help you build your own functions from scratch. This series breaks down the myth that functions are complex. Follow this link to register.
Note - If you have any suggestions of your own, do add them in a comment below and we'll try to include them in one of the sessions.
