VanVed vs Zoho Sites
for Website builder
Why businesses choose VanVed over Zoho Sites
No per-site fee, no page cap and no bandwidth tier — and the site reads from the same tenant database as everything else the business runs, so there is no connector between the website and the CRM because there are not two systems.
Capability by capability
Every row below is what our 2026 research found — including the rows we lose.
| Capability | VanVed | Zoho Sites |
|---|---|---|
| Price of the site | Included in the platform plan — no per-site charge | Free single-page tier; Starter $5 and Pro $17 per site per month |
| Page count allowed | No page cap and no bandwidth meter | 5 pages on Starter, 50 on Pro, with storage and bandwidth tiers |
| Editing model | Fixed section types, reordered in a list | Drag-and-drop responsive visual editor |
| Device preview in the editor | None | Desktop, tablet and phone preview |
| Custom domain and certificate | Requested in-app, then a manual staff step provisions TLS | Custom domain with automatic SSL on both paid tiers |
| Blog | None | Built in |
| How close the site is to the business data | Same database as the CRM, billing, bookings and helpdesk modules — one record, no sync | Pulls from Zoho CRM, Forms and PageSense — separate products in one suite |
| Custom code and CSS | None — a section is structured JSON and nothing else | Header and footer injection plus CSS customisation on Pro |
| SEO tooling | A meta description per page and a generated sitemap.xml and robots.txt — no title override and no keyword tooling | SEO settings, sitemap generation and keyword analysis |
Where Zoho Sites is ahead of us today
Zoho Sites is a more capable builder at five dollars a month: real drag-and-drop, device previews, a blog, automatic SSL and code injection on Pro. Of that list, the only thing this now matches is the generated sitemap. The only thing in this column that is genuinely better is that it is bundled and uncapped.
We publish this because a comparison that only flatters us is worth nothing to you. If one of these gaps is the thing you actually need, Zoho Sites may well be the better buy.
