Some of Canvas' key features include a drag and drop editor, a template gallery, and a range of formatting options. The platform also offers self-service via portals and tools for role-based assignment.
The overall goal with the platform, Zoho said, is to enable businesses to create their own CRM interfaces that are better suited to the role of each employee, without IT or developer involvement. In doing so, businesses can increase adoption of CRM systems, decrease implementation time, and improve vertical customization.
