Zoho Creator - 2023 Release Projection 1

Zoho Creator - 2023 Release Projection 1

Hello everyone!

A very Happy New Year to you and your family. Hope you're all good and having a great time using Zoho Creator to make your lives easier and your businesses prosper. 2022 was an action-packed year for us at Creator, and we hope to continue the same momentum into 2023!
 
Not resting on our laurels, we were recognized as a Leader by ISG Provider Lens, as we've been striving hard to reinforce Creator's position as the go-to low-code development platform for enterprises of all sizes. And today, we're elated to announce our Zoho Creator 2023 Release Projection 1, which gives you a peek into the robust list of features coming your way between January and June 2023.

We'd first like to convey that, despite our best efforts, a few features announced in the previous roadmap post slipped off the timeline. We made the hard choice of moving them to upcoming months, rather than compromising on the delivery of other important features. Having said that, the rest of the announced features were released bang on time and have been well-received.
 
For 2023 and beyond, we've launched a new Product Roadmap page, which will act as a one-stop destination to view comprehensive information about our upcoming features, and get a general idea on the direction in which Creator is heading.


We've worked on the features above to help you digitize, optimize, and modernize the operations of your business, with the ultimate aim of improving your competitiveness. But we're also working on a pretty exhaustive list of features that we'll shed more light on during the latter part of the year.
 
Loyal customers like you provide life to a business—and your continued patronage pushes us to innovate more and come up with pioneering features. We greatly appreciate the support, and your continued satisfaction is our utmost priority.
 
We'll post an update below whenever each feature is made available. In the meantime, we'd love to hear what you think of them. Send any feedback or questions to support@zohocreator.com
