Setting Price Details | Zoho Vertical Solutions

Setting Price Details

This guide will help you with the following:
  1. Create a Plan
  2. Edit Existing Plans
  3. Delete Existing Plans
Pricing your solution is a very important step, as the price you set will have a significant impact on the success of your solution. There are no restrictions on the features that will be available for your solution. All the solutions that you create will have features and functionalities available in the Enterprise version of Zoho CRM, with some exceptions. You can limit the number of modules that will be available to your customers based on the plan they choose. You can create upto three plans per solution, with different prices.
The payments for using your Vertical solution can be handled either through Zoho Store or a Subscription Management Platform. The procedure to create a pricing plan is described in the following sections.

Your plan's pricing consists of three major elements:
  1. CRM Base - This is a fixed base price for your solution, and is the share that Zoho CRM gets from the sale of your solution. The base price is common for all the plans and is fixed at $30 per user per month. This value cannot be changed.
  2. Extension Price - The price for the Zoho integrations that you have enabled for the solution.
  3. Partner Markup - This is the price that can be fixed by you. The markup price is the share that goes to you as our Zoho Partner, for the solutions that you create and sell.
  4. Setup Fee - This is an one time fee that can be charged from your user for setting up their solution account. Charging this from the subscribers is under the discretion of Zoho Partners. This setup fee is common for the entire organization irrespective of the number of users.
These four components together constitute the cost of your solution. For example, you fixed the Partner Markup as $10 per user per month and Setup Fee as $15, and you enabled Zoho Survery ($5). The customer who signs up for 10 users, will have to pay $445 for the first month which includes the $15 setup fee. For the following months, the customer will have to pay $430 per month.
Note
  1. When a new user signs up for your solution, they will be provided a trial version of your solution. The trial version will have all the features and modules.
  2. The duration of the trial period would be 15 days.
  3. You can also provide discounts to your subscribers who make their payments on annual basis. But the discount should not exceed the Partner's markup price.
  4. When new users sign up for your Vertical solution, you can manage your payments through Zoho Store.

Create a Plan

You can create upto three plans per solution. Creating a plan includes setting the markup price, the modules that will be available in this plan, selecting the extensions, the setup cost, and the discount.

To create a new plan
  1. Log in to Zoho Developer Console and click Start Building in the Vertical Solutions section.
  2. On your solution, click Edit.
  3. Click Pricing in the left pane menu.
  4. Click Create Plan for Zoho Payments. 


  5. In the New Plan page, do the following:
    1. Input the name of the plan in Specify Plan Name text field.
    2. From the List of Modules list box, select the modules that must be available for the users of this plan and move it to Selected Modules list box. 
    3. Specify the price of this plan including the Partner Markup. Select the extensions you want to include in the pricing; the price of the extension is added to the total price of the Vertical solution. You can also include a discount (for the users paying on annual basis) and a one time setup/consultation fee.  
    4. Write a brief description of the plan in Plan Description text field.
      6. Click Save.
      7. To rename the title of your Pricing page, click the Edit icon [] next to the title. Enter the following details in Edit Title and Description popup:
  1. Specify the title of the pricing page in the text box.
  2. By default, the title will be <solution name> - Editions & Pricing.
  3. Add a description for the pricing page. 
  4. Click Save.  


      8. Click the Edit icon [] in the footer section to include a footer, if required.
      9. In the Edit text pop up, type the footer description and click Save.

Note
  1. Your Vertical solution must have a pricing plan before you publish it.
  2. If you have already created a plan in your pricing page, you will have Add Plan [+] option, through which you can add new plans.

Edit Existing Plans

Sometimes, you may want to add/remove certain modules in an existing plan or change the pricing of a particular plan, based on customer requests or performance of the plan. You can achieve this by editing the existing plan.

To edit an existing plan

  2. Select the solution in which you want to edit the pricing plan and click Edit.
  3. Click Pricing in the left pane and click the Edit icon [] corresponding to a plan.
  4. In the Edit Plan page, make the necessary changes.
  5. Click Save.

Note
  1. Editing a plan will not affect the existing users of that particular plan.
    The changes will be effective only for the users who sign up after the change is published.

Delete Existing Plans

To delete an existing plan
  1. Log in to Zoho Developer Console and click Start Building in the Vertical Solutions section.

  3. Click Pricing in the left pane of the App Details page and click the Delete icon [] corresponding to a plan.
  4. In the pop up box, click OK to confirm.
Note
  1. Deleting a plan will not affect the existing users of that particular plan.
  2. The existing users will be able to continue with the same plan.
  3. The new users who sign up for your Vertical solution will not be able to subscribe to this plan.
  4. There should be atleast one plan for the product.
