We Newmark Beauty use Zoho Projects. Suppose your team wants to organize and track a few projects but is less concerned with staff scheduling, collecting timesheets to charge clients, and analyzing the progress of hundreds of projects in development. In that case, Zoho Projects is the most cost-effective option. We like how readily Zoho Projects scales if your team grows and requires additional functionality. Zoho, the company, provides a variety of other business applications that may be integrated with Zoho Projects to increase its functionality.

We Foxbackdrop use Zoho Projects. Zoho Projects, a component of a much larger suite of productivity tools produced by the same firm, offers an especially reasonable price point in addition to practically all of the conventional functions that one would anticipate finding in an application for managing projects. The tasks can be seen in either a kanban or a more traditional style, and dependencies can be specified between each individual task. The capability of the tool to handle even somewhat complicated project requirements is demonstrated by features such as problem and workflow management, Gantt charts, and individualized reporting. There is also a strong integration with other services, including Zoho's own suite of applications and those from other big players such as Google and Microsoft. Basic time tracking is already integrated.

We WeCodee have been using Zoho Projects daily for around two years now. I recommend it to startups and small businesses. The cloud-based app is relatively straightforward to use. Access the metrics and statuses that matter to you instead of switching views or searching using a customizable dashboard. The premium app allows tracking time under a task—set project workflows with dependencies and milestones using Gantt charts. Use a resource utilization overview to check no team member is overburdened or idle. They have a ready knowledge base, video library, and FAQ section to solve everyday problems. Additionally, customer support is prompt and helpful. The app can integrate with native Zoho apps and other useful apps like Google, Zapier, Microsoft OneDrive, ZenDesk, GitHub, etc.

As a business owner, we PeopleFindFast have been using Zoho Projects from the beginning of my company. I use this software almost daily to conveniently take care of different business activities. This project management software has an easy user interface and simple registration process and can be used through internet-enabled mobile devices. So I can manage my business from any location and at any time using this software. However, Zoho Projects' two main disadvantages are insufficient dashboard functionalities and a high learning curve.

We VEM Tooling have been using Zoho software since May 2020, which makes the duration of usage more than two years. Since our company has lots of projects to do and the number of projects is much greater than the other companies, we are supposed to use the software daily. Zoho is the best software for CRM customization, prospect inspection, and tracking interactions from webinars. In addition, it also has a robust automation process, and the software is constantly being improved, which adds up to its merits.

We Incrementors Inbound Marketing consider It a popular offering from Zoho that encourages even small businesses to keep track of assignments, bug tracking, collaborate and run automatic reports. The tool gives features like Gantt charts and the ability to billable hours on multiple projects together. Zoho Projects also owns an impressive suite of communications tools, including real-time chat and forum sheets. One can also share documents from within the app.

This is software that I personally suggest as we use it at RevelationMachinery. It is part of a larger suite of productivity tools from the same firm, includes nearly all of the basic features you'd expect from a project management app at an especially low price. Tasks can be seen in kanban or more traditional formats, and dependencies between tasks can be defined. The program can handle even somewhat complex project requirements with features like problem and process management, Gantt charts, and customized reports. Both Zoho's own suite of apps and those from key competitors like Google and Microsoft, are also well integrated. Using the built-in chat app, you may communicate with other project team members without having to use external technologies like e-mail or Slack. Three users are allowed on the free tier, which includes only 10 megabytes of storage and two projects.

We at Love Sew are using Zoho projects for a long time now. It's the most affordable, high value software in the market for small businesses. It costs just $6 per person per month if you go for the Enterprise plan, although there are cheaper plans available. This tool comes with budget and time tracking for multiple projects at the same time, as well as comprehensive and insightful resource management reports. Integration with other tools, such as invoicing apps, is simple and easily customizable. The platform's ecosystem is easy to navigate and use, hence, users do not require any special training.

We at CocoDoc use Zoho Projects for our project planning and management. Generally, Zoho’s biggest advantage is the fact that it comes with almost everything that’s needed for project management under one roof. On the upside, Zoho projects offer a tone of flexibility and customization options. In fact, we prefer Zoho to other project planning software because we can tweak the features to fit the specific needs of our business. The ability to automate some facets of our project planning is the cherry on the cake too. Zoho’s automation capability really helps us with efficiency and reduced management workloads. On the downside, Zoho projects come with a steep learning curve. The fact that users can create templates for their project planning also means that the UI appears a little complicated at first glance. Also, Zoho projects lack some reporting features, and file exporting options are minimal.

“Versatile, online alternative to Microsoft Project, with tons of customizations and workflow automations”

Overall rating5.0

My team and I have been using Zoho Projects now for over 6 months. The more we use it, and the more we explore its features, the more it is becoming an integral planning and communication tool for all of us. Zoho Projects allows you to view your task lists the way you like - classic, plain list and kanban view, which hence gives options to members to manage their tasks the way they like. The option to add external clients/vendors and give them limited capabilities and views is allowing us to improve collaboration with our key stakeholders. Overall a great tool for project/product managers.
