How finja closed the CRM gap in its broker pool's system with Zoho

The broker pool's system managed finja's insurance contracts, but important CRM functions were missing, above all structured lead management and meaningful reporting. This is how a Zoho CRM closed that gap, with a broker structure and visibility rights built to fit and a clean connection to the pool's system.

Your broker pool's system looks after the insurance contracts. But when it comes to structured lead management and meaningful reporting, important CRM functions are missing. The result: manual work, little transparency over customers, cases and tasks, and the question of how to add a CRM that docks into the pool's system without disrupting day-to-day business.

What was missing

Important CRM functions

Important CRM functions

Functions that are essential to finja's business were missing in the broker pool's system.
Structured lead management

Structured lead management

Leads need to be processed and evaluated in a structured way, which the system did not support.
Meaningful reporting

Meaningful reporting

Evaluations that say something meaningful were missing.
Manual work, little transparency

finja wanted to reduce manual tasks and see customers, cases and tasks clearly.
No connection to the broker pool

No connection to the broker pool

finja's previous CRM, Pipedrive, lacked the link to the broker pool's systems and their specifics.
Broker structure and visibility rights

Broker structure and visibility rights

finja's own broker structure and clear visibility rights had to be mapped in the new solution.

As part of its market analysis, finja looked at various CRM solutions and competitors, including HubSpot. The company had previously worked with Pipedrive, but it lacked the connection to the systems and specifics of finja's broker pool. Zoho won finja over with its broad feature set, high flexibility, integration options and, from finja's perspective, an unbeatable price-to-performance ratio.

finja became aware of codafish because codafish had already implemented a similar project for another customer of the same broker pool. What convinced finja was that codafish brought a deep understanding of the Zoho universe and how its applications work together, and already knew the broker pool's counterpart. Requirements could be classified faster and a very fitting solution developed.

It was important to us to find a partner who understands both our processes and the specifics of our broker pool, and can map them sensibly in the Zoho world. Together, we wanted to identify optimization potential and develop pragmatic, long-term viable solutions. We also placed great value on transparent communication, short response times, and reliable support for urgent matters.

finja describes the strategic guidance as very valuable: the team did not just propose technical solutions but understood the requirements of the broker structure and the link to the broker pool, and translated them into a coherent overall solution.

Communication was partnership-based, transparent and solution-oriented. Questions were usually answered quickly, competent contacts were available even for complex requirements, and when something was urgent for finja, codafish could be reached and worked on a solution. Project management was structured, transparent and efficient, with traceable tasks, responsibilities and milestones. Even after go-live, finja continued to receive reliable support for open questions and further optimizations.

Asked whether it would recommend Zoho, finja is clear: yes, definitely, especially for the combination of CRM, automation and integrated applications such as Bookings and Campaigns, and for companies that want to digitalize their processes with a very good price-to-performance ratio.
