We’ve been building project management tools for the past 19 years, and a question we often hear is:
Different teams in our organization prefer different project management methods; while the development team prefers agile, the marketing and sales teams prefer sequential project management models. Can we offer this flexibility in a single tool, where centralized progress monitoring is also available?
Absolutely! To address this very need, we launched Zoho Projects Plus at our annual Zoho Day celebrations this year, where we presented our enterprise-ready platform alongside real-time customer case studies. We received overwhelming interest in Zoho Projects Plus right from the launch, owing to the product’s ability to empower decision-makers and allow teams to enable diverse project management techniques using a single platform.
We are mighty proud that we’ve served over a 100 customers the very first year!
Here's a quick run-down of our updates for 2025:
Hybrid project management
Modern teams demand flexibility in the way they work. Rather than imposing a single model, providing flexibility empowers teams to explore and learn. Hybrid project management does exactly this by striking a balance between structured and flexible project management methods, allowing you to build on the strengths of both waterfall and agile.
