7. What is the difference between online training and virtual classrooms?
Our online training program is based on requests from users and is scheduled depending on the user and trainer's availability. It's not a face-to-face session, and trainers only handle one organization at a time. Virtual classrooms, on the other hand, are scheduled beforehand and listed on this page, where users can select a convenient slot for them based on their time zone. This will be an instructor-led, online session where the trainees can all see the trainer and interact with each other. Users from different organizations will take part in virtual classroom sessions.
8. Will virtual training be personalized for my business or industry?
No. The virtual training will follow a specifically formulated course plan. It is not tailored to meet the needs of any particular industry or any individual preferences.
9. Does the training cost include individual implementation?
No. Implementing CRM for individual customers is not included in the classroom training.
10. Can I turn off the video and still be part of the training?

Product experts from Zoho will visit your city and train you for 4 full days— which calls for dedicated efforts. You'll have the opportunity to work on the product under the guidance of the instructors, and clarify any questions you may have with them directly in person. Instructors will introduce new concepts, run demonstrations, and hold classroom discussions around each session. Additionally, this includes great food and refreshments on all three days!
