Log Into Zoho Suite with Your Google Account
Posted by Gina Trapani at 7:10 AM on May 15, 2008
Since most of you said you've stuck to Google Docs over Zoho Suite because you already have a Google account, Zoho Suite added the ability to log on with your existing Google or Yahoo account. You can even import your contacts from Google or Yahoo into Zoho.

That's a genius business move on their part.

Who needs Gallup polling. I love that a lifehacker poll is used as one of the reasons for this great move. I don't use Zoho as much as I want too, now I can.

Might check it out now...that's exactly why I never looked into it. I access so much through my Google account already.

@SenorDunda: Totally agree. One, they listened to feedback; two, they acted on it in a positive way to generate both goodwill and gain more users.
Love it.
Now, I'm off to go explore as I've never used Zoho before.

The better reason to try Zoho's webapps is that they rock. Much better 'n google's apps, IMNSHO.

@klumsy: Agree. Hopefully this will get done sooner rather than later.
It's just another reason to use Zoho over GDocs.

Smart move by Zoho, I have used google docs for a while and was envy by Zoho's expand platform which you can do more with Zoho.
Will be checking it out tonight!

great idea. this should open them up to a whole slew of potential new users.
now if they'd only narrow down their overwhelmingly large selection of apps just a bit...

now, they should use the google apis to bne able to leach your google documents to zoho, or even sync..

It's even Google Apps compatible! :)
Transferring docs, however? Not as smooth... :(

Thats cool, especially for the n800 users, because zoho has google gears support too :)

Now if one of them could just render Powerpoint correctly I'd be all set.

Brilliant move by Zoho. It was the push I needed to try it out. I knew about the word processor and spreadsheet apps but I found out they do web conferencing with desktop sharing for free. This will be awesome for supporting the relatives and is can use ActiveX, Java or Flash for the sharing app. Fantastico!
