Limnn vs Zoho
Zoho offers a very broad family of business apps — CRM, help desk, HR, projects, chat, finance and many more — available individually or as an all-apps bundle. Limnn is also a suite, but built as one application on one data graph: modules share the same records, permissions, search and Cortex AI rather than being separate apps connected together.
From $5.82 per seat / month (Core, monthly billing). See pricing

Which one should you choose?
Choose Limnn if…
- You want modules that share one record, one permission model and one AI — not app-to-app sync.
- Sales CPQ, an LMS and privacy-first workforce analytics matter to you.
- You value a single, consistent interface across departments.
Choose Zoho if…
- You need a very wide catalogue of apps (for example finance and inventory apps today).
- Your team already runs several Zoho apps happily.
- Lowest cost per app is your primary criterion.
Moving from Zoho to Limnn
- 01Export accounts, contacts, deals and activities from Zoho as CSV (most CRMs offer a full data export for admins).
- 02Recreate your pipelines, stages and custom fields in Limnn Settings, then import with the CSV importer — it maps columns to fields and flags duplicates.
- 03Rebuild key automations in Flows and your quote templates in CPQ; invite the team and run both systems side by side for a short overlap.
- 04Prefer a hand-off? Limnn Experts can scope a fixed-price migration, including data mapping and validation in a staging workspace.
