FAQs: Transitioning to the Next Gen UI 2024
Why did we change the current Zoho CRM UI to the Next Gen UI 2024?
CRM for Everyone brings together all crucial teams that interact with customers directly into the CRM platform, promoting collaboration, overcoming communication hurdles, boosting user involvement, and distributing administrative tasks without undermining privacy.
We've rolled out new features including:
- Teamspaces (Helpdoc/FAQs)
- Team modules (Helpdoc/FAQs)
- Chart View (Helpdoc/FAQs)
- Interactions Tab (Helpdoc/FAQs)
These enhancements are seamlessly integrated with our previous user interface, resulting in a well-organized workspace management system. This update, characterized by an attractive, easy-to-navigate interface filled with eye-catching visual elements, is now called the Next Gen UI 2024.
Where is the top menu bar in the Next Gen UI?
The top menu bar has been repositioned vertically to the left side of the screen and is now divided into two sections: the primary sidebar and the secondary sidebar. In addition to the functions previously performed by the top menu bar, these sidebars offer additional functionalities.
Are web tabs available in the Next Gen UI 2024?
Yes, web tabs are available in the Next Gen UI 2024.
What is the difference between web tabs and Teamspaces?
Web tabs and Teamspaces in Zoho CRM serve distinct functions within the platform:
Web Tabs are essentially gateways within Zoho CRM that allow users to access external web pages, web applications, and Zoho Creator apps directly from the CRM interface. These tabs are accessible organization-wide, enabling users to integrate custom or third-party applications seamlessly into their CRM workflow. Creation and access to web tabs are initially reserved for users with Administrator privileges, but access can be extended to others who have been granted the Customize Zoho CRM permission. Importantly, web tabs operate independently of CRM's other modules, meaning they don't link back to CRM data, and deleting a web tab won't impact data stored in other CRM modules.
Teamspaces, on the other hand, are collaborative environments within Zoho CRM designed to mimic the concept of departmental spaces in a business. Each teamspace is like a virtual office for a specific team, providing a dedicated area tailored to the team's operations and needs, whether based on function, location, or project. This feature supports the organization's internal collaboration by allowing customization and management by a designated teamspace admin, akin to an office manager's role in a real-world office. Teamspaces can be created by anyone with administrator rights or those specifically authorized with the Manage Teamspace permission.
In summary, while web tabs extend Zoho CRM's functionality to include external web resources, Teamspaces focus on enhancing internal collaboration by offering team-specific work areas within the CRM.
How can I switch to the Next Gen UI in my Zoho CRM?
In the old UI, a banner will appear offering you the option to explore the CRM for Everyone features along with the Next Gen UI by clicking 'Try Now' on the banner. If you happen to skip this banner, you can still switch to the new UI by selecting the 'Switch to new UI' option, which is located at the top inside the the profile panel.
Can I switch back to the Old UI?
Yes, once you've transitioned to the Next Gen UI, you have the ability to revert to the previous interface independently. Simply click on your profile icon located in the upper left corner, where you'll find the option to 'Switch to old Version'.
If I switch back to Old UI, will the UI be reverted only for my account or for all users in my organization?
If you decide to switch back to the old UI, this change will only apply to your account. Other users within the organization will continue using the new UI unless they individually choose to revert to the old version as well.
Does the UI change affect any of the CRM functions?
No, the introduction of the Next Gen UI doesn't alter the existing functions of the CRM. Instead, it enriches the platform with an easier-to-navigate interface and additional functionalities.

What is the teamspace switcher at the top of the secondary sidebar?
