Integrating SugarCRM with Zoho Campaigns helps you to import leads and contacts from your Vertical CRM into Zoho Campaigns. You can set up a sync to schedule periodic syncing of all your contacts and leads between SugarCRM and Zoho Campaigns on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis. This integration lets you plan your email campaign, send it to your leads and contacts, measure the campaign's effectiveness, and analyze the results.
