Why does the education sector need a CRM?

Education is no longer confined to lecture halls or classrooms, nor is it exclusive to people younger than 20. Ed tech companies, online schools, coaching and training centers, and overseas study consultants have emerged into the market alongside conventional schools, colleges, and universities who need a modern CRM not just to sell courses, but to nurture relationships with students, parents, staff, donors, alumni, and others. Zoho CRM makes it possible to manage the complete relationship lifecycle from inquiry to enrollment using automation, enabling sales teams to drive more conversions with ease.

Features to look for in an education CRM:

  • Intelligent automation capabilities
  • Secure custom portal access for stakeholders
  • AI-guided selling and best-action suggestions
  • 360-degree view of leads and contacts
  • Customizable solution for unique business needs
  • Automated workflows based on trigger actions
  • Sequential workflow orchestration
  • In-depth reporting and analytics

SKILLS2WORK models a process-led CRM and boosts productivity by 40%

Edusoft, the global leader in ed-tech, chooses Zoho CRM over SAP and Dynamics 365

CityDance brings together dance and data to save $100K with Zoho CRM

From the get-go, SKILLS2WORK were clear on what they wanted: a malleable CRM that would work around their processes. Using Zoho CRM's Canvas, they were able to create forms within forms to collect student information comprehensively. The result? 100% user adoption and a 40% increase in productivity.

Edusoft wanted a CRM to help them scale up. Zoho CRM's integrations, customizations, and ability to create scalable online processes using automations proved to be a clear winner for the company. Soon they experienced smoother operations and higher conversions.

Washington-based CityDance were tired of using multiple applications to store student information. They wanted a unified solution to track all student information in one place, and that's just what they got with Zoho CRM. As an added benefit, CityDance saved $100K within the first year.
