What Zoho CRM's site says it is
Zoho CRM's site calls it "Sales CRM Software" for any business; the pages read do not describe a solar edition.
Its pricing page lists an edition that is "Free forever for 3 users", paid editions per user per month, a free trial, and "28 languages".

Is Raymitra a Zoho CRM alternative for installers?
Yes, for a rooftop installer: Raymitra is built only for that job, in Hindi, Gujarati and English. For a business with many product lines, Zoho CRM's site describes a broader CRM.
