## Reviews

### "The Hidden Gem of Productivity Suites That Actually Rivals the Giants" — 5.0/5

> **Maxwell** | *9 December 2025* | Hospitality | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: One of the most impressive aspects of Zoho Workplace is how seamless the integration is between all the apps. I really appreciate having my email, documents, chat, and storage all living in a single unified dashboard. The email client, Zoho Mail, is clean and professional without scanning my data for ads, which is a huge relief for privacy.&#10;&#10;I also love the collaboration tools. Zoho Cliq makes internal communication instant and fun without needing to leave the ecosystem to use something like Slack. The office suite itself is surprisingly robust. Zoho Writer has a distraction free mode that I use daily, and Zoho Sheet handles complex data much better than I anticipated. It feels like a premium suite but comes at a price point that makes it accessible for small businesses and startups. The migration process from our previous provider was smooth, and the mobile apps allow me to work from anywhere without losing functionality.
> 
> **Cons**: While the suite is powerful, there is a slight learning curve if you are coming from the Microsoft ecosystem. Some of the formulas in Sheet or formatting options in Writer are located in different places, so it takes a little time to rebuild muscle memory. I also noticed that on very rare occasions, the sync between the mobile app and the desktop version can have a momentary delay, though it usually resolves itself quickly. Customer support is helpful but can sometimes take a bit longer to respond compared to other enterprise level services.
> 
> My experience with Zoho Workplace has been nothing short of fantastic. I was initially hesitant to switch away from the bigger names, but I am so glad I did. It offers a sophisticated and complete digital office environment that empowers my team to work efficiently. The value for money is undeniable, but beyond the cost, the actual user experience is polished and thoughtful. It feels like software built by people who actually understand how modern teams communicate and create. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a powerful, privacy focused alternative to the standard market options.

### "Zoho Assist - Easy and Effective" — 4.0/5

> **Fredy** | *5 May 2023* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: -  Feature-rich- unattended access- Reliability of connection- Fast and responsive enough
> 
> **Cons**: - Keyboard shortcuts were a main pain point- KB shortcuts were not transferred reliable and created a lot of minor issues- Would have loved the option to never log-off the remote system, unless done manually. Ie no timeout.
> 
> I used Zoho Assist, and I am pretty happy. But it is not to say that the product is not without its own quirks. As I have already used competing products like TeamViewer and Anydesk (my favorite until zoho), I can say that Zoho assist perform as well as these products. I felt it is almost as feature-rich and probably even more secure (like Anydesk had some cases where the remote assist can do action the remote user should be doing, like granting a higher level of access, etc) than both of the competitors combined. It is really useful to have remote PC power options (restarts the likes). But my favorite features have been unattended access, and it works like a charm. My only gripe with the product is I need a bit more seamless access to the remote PC. Anydesk NIALS this. For example, I need ALL the keyboard strokes to routed to the remote PC at least when I am full screen. This would make using keyboard shortcuts way easier. I had multiple occurrences where I cut some text and then when I paste, its something old from the clipboard. I click ctrl+v, and nothing happens (as it would decide not the transmit ctrl anymore? I don't know). These little bugs hamper the experience. On the flip side Zoho servers seem to be closer to my remote systems making my remote system feel much more responsive. I like the screen sizing options and the network statistics (all the extra statistics actually, which I see as a major pro for this product).
