Hello folks!
Kiosk Studio, which was in
early access, is now available to all customers in all DCs!
Kiosk Studio is a no-code customization tool in Zoho CRM. It allows
admins to simplify work for their users, customers, and vendors by
creating and embedding custom functionalities (called kiosks) across the
CRM. Here's a quick look at how Kiosk Studio can help you:
The problem
A brand new CRM comes with a set of standard modules and
configurations. This default setup serves as a great starting point for
most organizations. However, every organization has its own way of
modeling customer relationships and doing customer-related work. To get
the maximum value from Zoho CRM, admins can make changes to the standard
setup by configuring custom modules, custom fields, multiple pipelines,
canvas pages, wizards, translations, and more. Customizing the CRM in
this way is something most admins are familiar with.
When it comes to customizing the CRM by adding capabilities to
it, the story is different. In these cases, admins have to invest a lot
of development effort and time to meet their needs. This acts as a
barrier to admins and slows down the process of boosting the power of
the CRM to their users, customers, vendors, and other stakeholders. It
also slows down the process of making changes to the added capabilities.
Our solution
With Kiosk Studio, admins can quickly create custom capabilities
(called kiosks) and make them available for all CRM users. They can do
this by using the kiosk builder, a no-code interface that allows users
to build capabilities by using some basic building elements.
The ease of building a kiosk does not mean there is a trade-off in
power. In fact, a kiosk can bring in data from all modules in the CRM,
have custom screens with fields not available in the CRM, perform
actions for records across the CRM, fire webhooks, and execute custom
functions. Once built, kiosks can be hosted in multiple places across
the CRM. This gives admins a lot of options when it comes to sharing
these capabilities with anyone related to an organization.
