“As suggested by BSP, Zoho Creator 6 was precisely what we needed to develop a customized inventory management system. The Creator 6 environment allowed us to build, develop, test, and tweak without hindering our real-time operations. Additionally, Zoho Creator’s low-code feature was crucial in maintaining our aggressive timeline and going live on schedule.”
