Zoho offers 50+ apps covering CRM, inventory, invoicing, and more. It's a solid general business suite — but distribution isn't its specialty.
Workd is built exclusively for distribution with AI that understands your workflows, your customers, and your operations.
Zoho's strength is breadth. Zoho CRM, Zoho Inventory, Zoho Books, Zoho Desk — they integrate together and cover most business functions at an attractive price point.
But for distribution, you'll find yourself stitching together multiple Zoho apps, working around limitations, and wishing for features that a general-purpose suite doesn't prioritize: customer-specific pricing matrices, multi-warehouse allocation, route optimization, voice ordering.
Zoho has Zia (their AI assistant) but no voice agents that can take orders, check inventory, or make outbound calls. Workd's voice AI is purpose-built for distribution.
Zoho Inventory handles basic pricing. Distribution pricing — customer-specific matrices, contract pricing, volume breaks, promotional tiers — requires workarounds or doesn't fit.
Zoho doesn't have route optimization, driver tracking, or delivery management. You'd need a separate system entirely.
Running distribution on Zoho means coordinating CRM + Inventory + Books + potentially more. That's multiple systems to manage, even if they "integrate."
