We are a non-Profit currently trying to set up Zoho CRM for an educational setting.  We don't have a large budget so hiring a consultant to come in and configure the system isn't realistic at the moment.

Is there anyone that uses Zoho Standard, to track classes that would be willing to chat for a few minutes or email a bit on how they configured the system?  We understand the accounts, leads, contacts concept and I have a database background.  The main sticking point for us is understanding how to configure our recurring classes.  The Zoho implementation team is hesitant to make a recommendation and keeps referring us to a partner.

I would appreciate any general guidance that you have to offer.  

Thank you so much!
