"The notion people have is that no code equals no knowledge, and that's simply not true. Even though you don't have to write codes, you still have to know what you're doing."
"In terms of workflow automation, I believe that capabilities for creating the entire business process are required, or, at the very least, the option to model the business process, define complex business events, handle them, and route them to appropriate business stakeholders."
"Microsoft PowerApps could improve the speed of Power Automate, it is not very fast."
"We'd like to see more integration capabilities in the future."

"We'd like more features and less to no coding."
"The user interface is pretty good, although it is a little bit clunky and can be improved."
"The product needs to improve stability and scalability. We faced issues with bugs."
"Zoho provides different channels for support, like chat and email. There's also a multi-brand support self-service support portal, but it's time-consuming to deal with it. If we create a portal on Zoho, we need to pay an additional cost per user. It's a flexible platform, but there are limitations, such as the EBI. We need to purchase additional EBIs and other features that some businesses require. If we are developing complex applications, we need to set up many virtual automation and use API calls."
"We are looking for a single portal across all Zoho apps."
"Zoho Creator could benefit from improvement in regard to the user interface and user experience of the forms. The forms themselves could benefit from being made more interactive, with increased flexibility and customization options for both developers and users. This would allow for a more engaging experience when interacting with the forms and provide more opportunities for customization to meet individual needs and preferences."
"They still don't have a PDF conversion feature."
"I would rate the scalability a seven out of ten. So some room for improvement as well for scalability."
"When you're developing database-type applications, there is no way to see the actual database tables. They call them forms, and I don't like that. Zoho should also provide better user guides."
"Could have more pre-built integrations for pulling data from the wider Zoho ecosystem as well as other systems."
