Yukon CRM vs Zoho CRM
Zoho is a good value if you plan to live inside the Zoho ecosystem and have someone to configure and maintain it. Yukon is the better fit if you want a single platform that already includes campaigns, SMS, and quote-to-cash, configured and administered by one team, with your data in storage you own.
About Zoho CRM
Zoho CRM is the CRM at the centre of Zoho's large suite of business apps. It is inexpensive per seat, broadly capable, and deeply integrated with the rest of Zoho — Campaigns, Books, Desk, and dozens more — which is both its biggest strength and the source of most of its complexity.
About Yukon CRM
Yukon CRM is a modern CRM and business platform built, hosted, and administered by Evolved Technology Group. Every plan includes contacts, pipeline, activities, Outreach email campaigns, SMS campaigns, quotes, sales orders, purchase orders, invoicing, support cases, and a client portal on one data layer — with your data in storage you own, Canadian and US hosting, and a team that builds the features you ask for.

Frequently asked questions
Why switch from Zoho CRM to Yukon CRM?
Most teams that leave Zoho do so because the CRM alone wasn't enough — they ended up paying for Campaigns, Books, and Desk on top, and spending admin time stitching them together. Yukon includes campaigns, SMS, quoting, invoicing, and ticketing on one price, and ETG configures and administers it for you.
Is Yukon CRM more expensive than Zoho CRM?
Per seat, Zoho's entry tiers are cheaper. Once you add Zoho Campaigns, Books, and Desk to match what Yukon includes, and account for setup and admin time, total cost is usually comparable or lower on Yukon — with one vendor instead of four products.
Can you migrate our Zoho data?
Yes. ETG has purpose-built tooling for Zoho CRM exports — accounts, contacts, leads, deals, activities, notes, and custom fields all transfer. Your team stays live on Zoho until cutover, typically 2–4 weeks.
When is Zoho the better choice?
If you're already running Zoho Books, Desk, and Campaigns across the business and have someone comfortable maintaining it, staying in the Zoho ecosystem can be the cheaper path.
