CRM Technologies simplifies password management by migrating from LastPass to Zoho Vault

About Ulan Dzhumashev

Ulan Dzhumashev is the CEO of CRM Technologies, an IT company that provides solutions for sales and service automation and ECM-systems. His early days at various telecommunications and call center companies helped him gain insight into the needs of modern enterprises and build his own consulting firm.

CRM Technologies was established in November 2009 and has delivered over 100+ complex implementations for various industries such as banking, insurance, telecommunication, retail, travel, manufacturing, government services, construction, and energetics. Their company is based out of Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan, and serves clients from around the world.

Why moving to Zoho Vault was the right choice for CRM Technologies

Like many other organizations, CRM Technologies had difficulties managing multiple passwords and safely logging in to their own and client’s systems. With their saved passwords spread across different browsers and devices, they knew it was time to get them organized in a secure, centralized vault.

“Before using a password manager, our passwords were completely disorganized,” Dzhumashev says. “They were scattered across browsers, text files, and individual password vaults, making it difficult for us to manage them. We had to find a better way to organize them.”

With high-profile clients demanding complete security and privacy for their data along with NDA and GDPR requirements, CRM Technologies had to quickly opt for a password management solution. Unfortunately, the password manager they initially went with did not win their trust.

“Our business requirement forced us to immediately opt for a password manager and we opted for LastPass without much analysis,” Dzhumashev says. “It was a pretty solid product, but shockingly, when it was time for our renewal, we were asked to pay 3x the cost of our initial subscription without any significant changes to the feature set. That was when we lost our trust in LastPass.”

Struck with disappointment, Dzhumashev’s team wanted to migrate to a reliable solution. This time, they used a thorough vendor selection process and luckily, they soon found Zoho Vault and needless to say, they loved every bit of its experience.

“We wanted to migrate to a solution that offers robust password management features and reliable technical support, so we took our time to find the right application for our team,” Dzhumashev says. “That’s when we found Zoho Vault, and to be honest, from the moment we tried Vault, we knew we got what we were looking for.”

Choosing the best solution in the market

After evaluating a couple of other solutions, Dzhumashev’s team found the Zoho Vault experience to be unmatched by anyone else. The ease of password-sharing, coupled with the fine-grained security controls over business passwords, made Vault stand out from other solutions.

“We were looking for ways to share passwords securely with our team” Dzhumashev says. “We also faced issues with importing passwords from LastPass to the new solution seamlessly. Vault addressed them both and instantly simplified our work. The comprehensive audit trails and browser extensions are extremely helpful and makes our lives so much easier.

“We looked at a few other solutions like Keepass and Dashlane, but none of them came close to what Zoho Vault offered at this price point. Our entire team loved how Vault made security comfortable, and we have never looked back since!”
