Proof of Usefulness Score
Certified Problem Solver

Zoho CRM is a market-leading SaaS product with immense verifiable utility and reach (10M+ users, global presence). However, this specific submission appears to be low-effort or impersonation (user 'BlazeBlade', nonsense revenue data, vague claims like 'everyone'). While the entity itself warrants a high score (700+), the poor submission quality triggers the lowest Quality Factors (0.5) and a penalty on Response Quality, resulting in a score reflecting a 'Verified Giant with Poor Documentation'.
