                                                                                                                        We have found an issue with the + sign character in zoho subs - we are allowed to create a customer with an email address that has a plus sign but the API doesn't allow the + so the billing portal is not created. We are going to prevent users from using

                                                                                                                        We'd like the ability to enable/disable the pre-chat form on a per-channel basis, rather than having a single global setting. On the website widget, asking for name and email before chat starts makes sense. On WhatsApp, however, email isn't necessary

When copying and pasting text within Zoho Notes, I notice that the formatting of the text (text color and background color) is not retained when pasting. Only the attributes "Bold"

                                                                                                                        We recently discovered that ALL of the following Google Ads fields are visible to all users in our CRM that have access to either Leads or Contacts modules. Not only is this troubling and inconvenient, it should be unacceptable. It also creates a mess

I think this is very inconvenient for companies wanting to use this feature all in one system

                                                                                                                        This is a real world problem for many companies. We track several employees appointments and this is done by one person so one account. The calendar layout is not great but if we could just colour code appointments to make it easier to see and then what about printing out the diary. I know in the IT world everybody is connected but so many of use still use old technology- paper.

There is a similar thread for Creator out there that is 2 years old, but I'd like to raise it in the ZOHO CRM category as well. Would you kindly update the existing Deluge sendmail function to allow a priority parameter? The parameter should allow

Testing emails without visibility has always been a blind spot in the sandbox. With the new Outbox, that gap is closed. You can now view and verify every email triggered from your sandbox, whether it’s through workflows, approvals, or mass
