Introducing Canvas for Zoho CRM, the industry’s first CRM design studio.

Today, Zoho CRM is launching Canvas, our ambitious approach to create the gold standard of CRM experience. Canvas is a no-code, drag-and-drop design studio built into Zoho CRM where you can create contextual, immersive experiences for your entire team.

Every industry is different, and every business is unique. Zoho CRM is often used by several teams within an organization, and each team has different goals, different methods, and different requirements. So, how can one CRM experience meet everyone’s needs?

Have you ever wondered what your ideal CRM would look like?

Do you have ideas about how your Zoho CRM should look and feel?

a better crm experience

Take it to the drawing board with Canvas!

We sat down to come up with ways to offer a highly personalized user experience for everyone, and we came to a simple conclusion: to each their own.

Every team prefers to have fields, buttons, widgets, and other UI elements displayed in a certain way, which can be radically different from what another team wants. This difference of opinion becomes even larger when we compare different companies and industries. Trying to create a user interface that has a universal appeal isn’t the best idea. So, why not try giving customers the power to change how their software looks?

That’s how Canvas came to be.

Here’s an overview…

How does Canvas for Zoho CRM work? 

➤ Drag-and-drop editor: You can redesign Zoho CRM without writing a single line of code. Canvas is a no-code editor where anyone with no developer skills can create Canvas views with the intuitive drag-and-drop creation process. You can also choose to start from scratch or pick a template and dive right in.
