Enhanced Collaboration and Global Web Tabs in Zoho Projects

Hello Users,

We are rolling out two key enhancements in Zoho Projects that will be part of our November release.

Here’s what to expect:

 1. Collaboration Section in the Left Navigation Panel 

What’s new?

All communication and interactive tools will be grouped under a single Collaboration section.

What's included?

The Feed, Calendar, Chat, and Meetings modules will be grouped into this section, making it easier for you to access key project communication modules in one place.

The Discuss module has been renamed to Chat.

 2. Global Web Tabs in the Left Navigation Panel 

What's new?

You will be able to create global Web Tabs that apply to your entire portal, not just for projects.

What does this mean?

This update allows you to embed external applications and resources directly in your Zoho Projects portal, accessible from the left navigation panel.

Feature Availability: Latest user-based Enterprise plan

Stay tuned for future updates!
