Chennai, India, May 24, 2017- Zoho launched a new version of
its team collaboration software, Zoho Connect.
With a refreshing look and feel, the user interface has been redesigned
around greater efficiency and organization. New features like Manuals, Boards,
and Forums, lets teams create their own knowledge base, manage their work plans
from a centralized space, and crowd source solutions from their entire
organization.
"Today, consumers are empowered with better tools than
business users when it comes to communication and collaboration." says
Raju Vegesna, chief Evangelist of Zoho. "When business users are presented
with familiar social tools in their context, the productivity at the individual
level and more importantly at the team level explodes. With Zoho Connect, we
have merged the familiarity of social tools with contextually integrated
productivity tools."
Here is an overview of what the update offers:
Manuals: Teams can use Manuals to build a searchable
knowledge base. Employee handbooks, company policies and procedures and other
team documentation can be organized as manuals. With granular permissions, teams get complete
control on who can access and contribute to a manual.
Boards: Teams can use
Boards to plan and execute work on Zoho Connect, while gaining an overall
perspective of what everyone is working on. Teams can divide work into
sections, assign tasks, set priority levels, and start relevant conversations
within the board. From the finer details to the entire plan, teams can track
work and deliver results.
Forums: Teams can use Forums to create and share internal
newsletters, conduct company-wide discussions, and foster solutions from in the
organization. All forum discussions are fully searchable and accessible to
everyone in the network. Forums helps keep discussions focused and provide more
context by letting teams create categories to
group relevant discussions together.
Integrations: Teams can save time by using app integrations
to bring all of their applications together in one place. With new integrations
like MailChimp, GitHub, Trello, and more, teams can be updated on the progress
of their marketing campaigns, be informed about changes made to their code
repository, and track their work and team projects without switching tabs. The
Zapier integration allows teams to connect with over 750 web apps.
New UI: With a new look and feel, the user interface strikes
a fine balance between pleasant design, usability, and efficiency. A new menu
has been added to provide easy access to built-in apps. Conversations are now
more intuitively organized, helping teams switch between private messages,
mentions, group mentions, and bookmarks.

The new Zoho Connect is available immediately online and
will be available soon on iOS and Android devices. The free version comes with
10GB of shared storage, and lets users
onboard their entire organizations, regardless of size. Zoho Connect
