English Date Format not correct for US
For the English US language setting, the date format should be MM/DD/YYY. Currently it is DD/MM/YYY or 27/10/2008. This is not what people are used to seeing and it creates problems. kclassen
Cannot upload new version of a document!
After once having a document updated by another user, I cannot upload a new version by myself. I select the file, click on the buttton, it loads, but nothing happens. leander.isler
Visualization of repetitive meetings
Dear ZOHO team, After programing a repetitive meeting if you go to "meetings" you see the meeting scheduled only on the first day and marked with the two circular arrows but you don't see it on the other consecutive days (apart from the calendar option, where you see them clearly). I think this may be a little confusing for project user if they prefer to check meetings only on "meetings" page. If you could adjust this problem i would be very greatful. Thanks and kind regards, Sergio Mantilla smantilla@sofasa.com.co
Default tab
Hello, we like your product but since we are it mostly for tasks, we always have to click first to Tasks & Milestones, then to General, which is 2 clicks for each time we want to look/updates project-related tasks. It would be very nice to be able to set a default tab or to change the order of the tabs. As you know, interface ergonomy is very important, particularly to minimize the number of clicks to perform a task in a software that is often used. Thank you, Francoise
Adding a new Task List does not 'append'
Hi When I try to add a new task list under an existing milestone, the newly added task appears as the first item, While my expectation is that if I add a new task list then I would like see this as the last item. What I am doing wrong here? I checked out your help but could not figure out how this can be done from there. Appreciate your response on this. Illustration Milestone 1 * Task list 1 * Task list 2 * Task list 3 Now, I add one more task list called "task list 4". Not it appears like ... Milestone

Not intuitive
Your application is not intuitive at all. Hard serious issues getting around to setting up tasks and assigning them to users i've setup. Creating milestones for my projects is giving me so much issues as it is. ugommirikwe1
Document version uploading
I'm having trouble updating document versions. The file names are identical, and I've checked several times. Any ideas on what else could be causing the problem? Does it matter who uploaded the original document? justin.alger
How do I assign a client to a project?
Do you have any tutorials that walk you through the common steps in setting up a project? Have spent the last 30 minutes trying to figure out how to do things like assign a client to a project, and set up completion dates for tasks and failing miserably, I feel like I have been shown the emperors wonderful new clothes but somehow can't see them. It just doesn't seem terribly intuitive to me, but I may just be showing my age ;0) Thanks, Nick.
Liked your Projects site, but...
Hi ZOHO, I wanted to let you know that I decided against using your ZOHO Projects for only one reason --- I had many members that I setup that did not receive their Email Invites with the login/password information. I have 34 members listed in the Project. I was comparing your service to BaseCampHQ.com and was going to pick ZOHO Projects -- but I had to have complete faith that the notification and emailing communications worked all the time. I even tested this notification with my own account, ...
RTM alike integration with Gmail via FF
The subject line says it all, I wish you had an addon to FF like RememeberTheMilk does which integrates the main user's dashboard (across projects) with gmail. That's would be great
Document association on task lists
Being able to associate documents to a task is a great feature, but has one big problem. If the filenames in the document list begin similarly (such as they might if all for the same project) then the list displayed during association is useless as it only shows the first part of the filename - associating then becomes a 'guess and hope' empirical procedure. Can we have full filenames displayed please? graham.cumming@celticcata
Very nice
I have been looking for some thing like for long time. This is perfect with lots of features yet very simple to use. dhiraj.peechara
Projects List
I have more then a 100 of Projects I was wondering My Questions are 1. Is there a search bar to find a specific project? 2. Is there a way to show the Project list is alphabetical order? 3. If you put a duplicate name as a project it does not let you know that project already exist. Any help if I'm just not seeing these extra tools or they are yet to come out? rich_simms2

Hi there, I'm using ZC and wondering that can zoho set up the file type when customers upload documents. This is because I created a form which allow people upload their files. But I just want to receive a word file, not a pdf or image one. So how can I do that? Thanks a lot,

Forum like in ZOHO Business
I just saw today the FORUM in ZOHO Business. This is really quite good also in design. Why do you use a different Forum in ZOHO Project? Are there any plans to do it in the same design like ZOHO Business? Thanks .... TThomas

Timesheet Views
It would be very useful if I could have a combined timesheet calendar view for all users on a project, not just individuals. This would be beneficial for billing purposes. emerson_farms
Issues with Calendar
Hi, I have noted that the date pickup box is showing the wrong date against week days. For example today (28-10-2008) shows like 'wed' instead the 'tue' collumn. How can I correct this? Other problem is regarding the Task status. For some reason many tasks from the reminder email appears with 'Delayed' status but the start date is not in the past. Could you let me know why it happens? I´m using the Brazilian Portuguese option. Regards Rafael Rafael Abreu

Time Sheet
When I enter in hours for the time sheets and export all users, the ZoHo Sheet recognizes the hours as a '8.00 instead of 8.00 causing the Auto Sum feature not to recognize the cell as a text or number cell. Can you please fix this export feature? ggovensky

Uploading documents: PREVENT users from getting emails
I am using Zoho Projects and among the team members, we upload quite a lot of documents on a weekly basis. For each documents we upload, all the team members will receive an email. I DO NOT WANT each member to receive an email when I upload a document. I can see the list of each member in the "Document Upload" page, but it seems there is no way to disable that. How do I do this?
availability of notes for completed tasks
I am trying to view notes related to completed tasks. Even though the tasks are complete there are still relevant notes attached to each task that will need to be reviewed at the completion of the milestone. Even if I attach all of my notes to one task and close it last to keep notes available longer, I still need to close it to complete the milestone. Having notes accessible after the task is complete solves these issues. I thought this was addressed quite some time ago and actually remedied. Now

iCal Sync with Zoho Timezone Difference
Hi, My iCal is currently synced with Zoho. Everything is working fine except that I am unable to see the calendar in Zoho (in Singapore time) as my local time here in Belgium. An event in Singapore at 2pm should be reflected as 8am here in Belgium, but it is also reflected as 2pm here in Belgium in my iCal. I have already set my iCal as Belgium time... so I think settings here on my machine are fine. Please advise, thanks! keith.ng
Emails to project members
How do we manage emails sent out to members. It seems like every item we add or change gets notified out. Is there an option to suppress this? mayu.be
SMS Notification?
The existing email notification is fine, except if you don't happen to be near your computer. SMS is the way to go for many mobile users -- please consider it. This would be particularly good for task reminders. Thanks! michaelcharvet
Opening Documents in Zoho Writer
Being able to open up documents in Zoho writer is one of the best features of your Zoho project suite. I recently signed my team up for using the suite because of it. However, when clicking on a document, the default method is to download it. I am having to explain to my whole team how to open the document in writer - this is a pain - it is not as intuitive as one would think. There should be a way to change the default method. blakestack
Importing MS Project files (MMP)

Adding Project Members Without Email?
I would like to specify people or contractor companies without setting them up with email addresses because: . I don't want them seeing our database (one of us manages the contractor) . The specific contractor has not been selected yet As far as I can tell, I am required to enter a valid email address so the "team member" can manage an account. I thought of putting in a garbage email address but I can't even give that "team member" a name. I would have thought this was a common need. Is there a solution
chat in projects
I have seen from forum posts that there is no chat function within projects. This function makes the experience significantly better and is essential to communicate with a group about changes without sending emails. It is much easier. I hope that this feature roll-out is sooner rather than later. Do you have an estimate of when this feature might be available? Jon jonathanlev
Where's the Jott integration?
One of key reasons I stay with Google Calendar is that a Jott link is provided. I simply call Jott, leave a quick message, and it appears in Gcal a few minutes. I would love to be able to create tasks in Zoho Projects with Jott. All of these services are tied into Jott -- except Zoho. http://jott.com/jott/jott-links.html michaelcharvet
ICAL feed
Perhaps I have missed it, but Zoho Projects really needs an ICAL feed. Many of the people I report to are not on Zoho, but do use Gcal or some other online calendar to watch things. michaelcharvet
