Zoho Projects Reviews

The tool enables the creation of projects and collaboration with team members by inviting them to the respective projects. Automation features include the automatic closure of tasks based on set criteria. The platform also sends reminders to track projects. 

While integrating a voice solution with Zoho Projects, the focus was on creating a unified interface for voice and customer engagement across various platforms like Facebook, social media, and emails. The primary goal was to seamlessly merge the two platforms into a single interface. To achieve this, we engaged in API integrations and worked on aspects such as initializing, authentication, and access control.

It is easy to use and quite affordable. Reports are generated regularly, providing insights into ongoing and completed tasks. During sandbox meetings, there is no need for a separate sheet, as all relevant information is accessible within the application. 

If given the opportunity, I would focus on improving automation within Zoho Projects. While attempting to integrate with other platforms, users often encounter errors. The integration capabilities of Zoho Projects could be enhanced. Currently, the integration options are categorized as either easy or customized, with the latter requiring deluge code, which might pose challenges due to its lesser-known usage.

I've observed that some clients find it challenging to navigate Zoho Projects, especially when onboarding external collaborators. There have been instances where users faced delays due to email verification processes and loading times.

I'm uncertain about recommending Zoho Projects without a clear understanding of specific integration needs and organizational structure. If your focus is on integrating with in-house applications or third-party solutions, the use of deluge programming language in Zoho Projects might pose challenges for custom integrations. However, for simpler notifications and communication purposes, it could be suitable.

I have been using the product for more than two years. 

The product is stable. 

Zoho Projects is scalable. 

The setup process is straightforward, with the ease of configuration depending on factors such as the number of users and specific requirements. The primary process for setting up Zoho Projects involves visiting their website and providing organizational details, such as email ID for signing up. After completing the sign-up process, you can log in and set up two-factor authentication if desired. You need one resource to handle the deployment. 

We did the deployment in-house. 

Zoho Projects' return on investment has been good for the organization. It has allowed us to track the progress of projects, monitor productivity, and deliver projects effectively.

Zoho Projects' costs are yearly and affordable.

The reporting functionality in Zoho Projects is deemed quite effective, allowing users to easily extract and analyze data for their specific needs. While it may not have the extensive features of Microsoft Projects, the reporting capabilities in Zoho Projects are considered good. 

I rate the overall product a six out of ten. 

We are using Zoho Projects to identify and allocate tasks to different team members and check the status of every task. Additionally, we are using it for sales campaigns amongst our potential customers, and we are tracking the different statuses of the sales processes.

The most valuable feature of Zoho Projects is all integrated into one. We don't have to start using multiple tools, such as Projects, CRM, Marketing, Automation, Finance, and setting up Meetings. It's all in one solution. I don't have to go to multiple different platforms to have all the features I need.

Zoho Meeting definitely needs an improvement, because the quality is not as good as Zoom or Microsoft Teams, which I've used in the past.

The user interface could improve.

I have been using Zoho Projects for approximately a month and a half.

Zoho Projects is a stable solution.

We have approximately 30 to 50 people in my organization and all of them are using this solution.

The solution is scalable.

I have not experienced Zoho Projects' technical support. I have only used our internal support to give me assistance if I needed it.

I have used Zoom and Microsoft Teams previously.

Zoho Projects was fairly simple to set up.

Our IT team did the implementation of the solution. We have two to three people working on the maintenance and support of Zoho Projects.

For a small to midsized company, Zoho Projects works very well and I would recommend it. I think it's scalable and highly intuitive in that way. Overall, the look and feel of Zoho Projects can be improved upon.

I rate Zoho Projects a seven out of ten.

We are using the solution for inner scrum projects. For example, if you have internal or external teams working on some software, you can use it to manage different projects across different departments. They can assign projects to internal or external resources and get reporting based on projects, milestones, tasks, and sub-tasks. 

The solution is highly organized. It helps organize multiple projects and manage everything from milestones to timelines to tasks.

The timeline features are excellent. We can differentiate the task via timestamps. There are logged times as well. You can set times and see how long the tasks actually take. 

It's stable and reliable.

The scalability is very good.

It is easy to set up.

Pricing is quite inexpensive, especially compared to others on the market.

We haven't noted any missing features. It's a complete project management tool.

We'd like to have milestone features.

It would be good to have an external customer portal.  

Technical support needs to be improved. 

I've been using the solution for five years. 

I'd rate the stability nine out of ten. There are no bugs or glitches, and it doesn't crash or freeze. It is reliable. 

I'd rate the scalability nine out of ten. It easily extends quite well.

Technical support from Zoho is not very good. They do not hire the right people to help. It takes three to four days typically to solve issues. 

The initial setup is very straightforward. However, it does take time to customize. 

We have witnessed an ROI while using the solution. 

The pricing, if you go to the complete version, it is very good. It's cheaper than other options. 

I'm using 40+ different Zoho applications, and I'm using the latest version.

If you only have one or two projects, this solution is not needed. However, if you have multiple projects across multiple departments, this solution is perfect for you.

I'd rate the solution nine out of ten. 

We use the solution for project planning and tracking.

The product has all the complexities that we need for difficult projects. We can customize the tool. It delivers what we want.

It is hard to integrate the tool with Microsoft Excel. It worked well initially. However, with system changes, the integrations become difficult. The UI and UX must be improved. It seems a little bit cluttered.

I have been using the solution for three years.

I rate the stability a seven and a half out of ten. We had downtime once or twice.

The tool is fairly scalable. I rate the scalability an eight out of ten. We had a very small team of 30 users.

Neutral

I have worked with Microsoft Project. It was a desktop solution, and Zoho Projects is a cloud solution. I have also tried Jira. It is more into incident management than project management.

The initial setup is easy. We can deploy the tool quickly. We took five months to deploy the product because we customized it. The solution is cloud-based.

We had subcontracted the development. It is very easy to maintain the product. We need one person for the maintenance.

The productivity gains and the visibility across projects are our return on investment.

The product is fairly priced. We had a fairly good deal. We paid an annual subscription fee.

The solution provided us with an option for premium support, but we had not taken it since we were supported by a partner who implemented it. We learned everything, and we manage it now. It's a good solution to have. We can manage more than 50 projects simultaneously using the tool. Overall, I rate the solution a seven out of ten.

We use the tool for our business projects.
i.e. 

1. If we have a new site coming up, there are many milestones that need to be checked, and actions tracked, we can have them mapped out clearly on Zoho Projects. The solution helps to ensure consistency and tracking of tasks.

2. Business system enterprise application deployment milestones and tasks have been easy to track on Zoho projects as well.

It is not easy to drag and drop a task from one person to the other. I think the resolution for the issue is work in progress. The product's stability can be improved. 

I have been using this solution for a year and half.

I would rate the solution's stability a six point five out of ten and depends on the proximity of the data center. 

My company has six users for the product. 

We get good support from Zoho India but it would be good if they can improve on the language. 

Negative

The product's setup is easy. We did the deployment after working through the business requirement document.

I would rate the product an eight out of ten. This solution is recommended for new businesses. Veterans may find the solution basic. 

I have integrated Trello into Zoho Projects. We can use the product to add projects and track their status and time. We can also upgrade the status and add tasks and sub-tasks.

The Enterprise version is very valuable to us. The product is very easy to understand. We can track the task status in detail. We can also track the percentage of progress of the task every day. We can determine whether the task is 20% or 50% complete.

Sometimes the solution does not work.

We have been using the solution for three years.

I rate the stability a nine out of ten.

We can deploy the solution according to the number of users in the organization. I rate the scalability a nine out of ten.

Overall, I rate the solution a nine out of ten.
