Why choose Contracko over Zoho Contracts?
Zoho Contracts is a contract management tool designed primarily for existing Zoho ecosystem users (Zoho CRM, Zoho Books, Zoho Sign, etc.). While offering a free tier for 10 contracts and 3 users with affordable per-user pricing ($25-$50/user/month), the platform's strength comes from deep integration with other Zoho products. As a standalone contract management solution, Zoho Contracts is less specialized than dedicated CLM platforms, with limited features outside the Zoho ecosystem. The per-user pricing model means costs scale with team growth, and businesses not using other Zoho products miss out on the platform's primary value proposition. Small businesses seeking a best-in-class contract repository with unlimited users find Zoho's ecosystem dependency and per-user pricing limiting compared to standalone alternatives.
