Osmos or Zoho for creating quotes

Zoho is a very broad business suite; Osmos is built around the quote. Here is when each one fits, and why many companies use both.

Short answer: If you want a full CRM suite with marketing, inventory and many apps, Zoho covers more ground, and quoting is one of its modules. If your day is quoting, Osmos is built for it: you build the quote from your catalog, send it by email or WhatsApp, the client signs online and can pay by card when accepting. And you don't have to choose: Osmos integrates with Zoho and syncs data both ways.
