Zoho Projects Plus’ 2025- the year we launched

Zoho Projects Plus’ 2025- the year we launched


 
We’ve been building project management tools for the past 19 years, and a question we often hear is:
Quote
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.

Idea
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.

Hybrid dashboards

Dashboards, available in the Home Screen of Zoho Projects Plus, are a centralized monitoring hub with dashboards and reports to track projects executed using structured, agile, and hybrid project management methods. Learn more

AI in Zoho Projects Plus

Zoho Projects Plus employs artificial intelligence to help organizations make informed decisions using AI-powered insights, enhance global search with AI-based, unified search, and fine-tune creative content in projects using generative AI. Learn more

Unified search

Zia search in Zoho Projects Plus offers a unified search across all applications—Projects, WorkDrive, or Analytics. You can use conversational language as search terms to fetch details instead of relying on complex syntax for search. Learn more

  2. $20 /user/month
 


Zoholics USA, May 2025

We exhibited Zoho’s PM suite of products at Zoholics USA this May, and it was an absolute hit! Multiple workshops and sessions were held to educate our users about the nuances of the product. We engaged with a lot of PM enthusiasts, and their response to the product’s abilities was welcoming.



Zoho Inspire, Canada

Zoho Inspire aims to connect and collaborate with Zoho Partners who bring in valuable business and foster meaningful connections. This year’s Zoho Inspire in Canada provided us with a stage to exhibit the exceptional abilities of Zoho Projects Plus as a flexible PM suite offering intelligence-driven work. The session was a great success with many partners extending their support in promoting the product.
 
Zoho Projects Roadshow, USA

To wrap up the year, the second edition of Zoho Projects’ Roadshows was held in the USA, spanning from October 27 to November 7, 2025. We discussed the advanced project management solutions offered by Zoho Projects Plus and how teams are using it in real-time. The conversational format of the roadshows helped users to ask, learn, and engage with us even better.
 


2025 gave us a warm welcome. With that spirit, we’ve lined up a bunch of exciting plans for 2026—useful integrations, additional apps, and better experiences.

Until then, wishing you a happy new year!

-Zoho Projects Plus team.
