Zoho Subscriptions' year in review: 2020

Hello everyone,

The team at Zoho Subscriptions has been keeping busy the past year. Here's a recap of some of our best updates from 2020, just in case you missed any of them.


These were some of our key updates from 2020. We added much more features and under-the-hood refinements though–you can view a full list of them from our What's New timeline. Our Android and iOS mobile apps have been constantly evolving to bring you comprehensive subscription management on the go, so be sure to download or update them, if you haven't already. 

2020 also saw the first post from our new Community Learning Series, which wraps up everything related to Zoho Subscriptions, from events and customer stories to product updates, in one monthly post. Between this, our What's New posts, and our Twitter handle, we'll make a slew of announcements throughout 2021, so stay tuned! 

Thank you for choosing Zoho Subscriptions and sticking with us this year. We'll put our best foot forward in 2021.

Cheers,
The Zoho Subscriptions Team
