Announcing Zoho Creator's 2024 Release Projection 2

Announcing Zoho Creator's 2024 Release Projection 2

Hello Creators!

Greetings from all of us here at Zoho! We hope you’ve been having an incredible journey with this low-code platform we all love. And here’s a gentle reminder that it’s that time of the year again—where we open up and give you a sneak peek into what’s been cooking in our labs!

Let’s get right down to business:

Refreshed Product Roadmap page
It might not seem like it, but our Product Roadmap page has been around for a while and was in need of a refresh—so we did just that! We’re excited to announce the launch of our brand-new Product Roadmap page, designed with you in mind. The updated page is now more intuitive, making it easier than ever to navigate, narrow down, and stay informed about the features we’re working on. The refreshed page has also been updated with our upcoming features for the rest of the year (more on that later!). If you just can't wait to see them, head to the link below:

Reflecting on the journey so far
Since we started announcing our roadmap features, we’ve had a high strike rate of on-time, successful releases. In H1, we rolled out several features, including the Device type Deluge function and enhanced Kanban reports, which were well-received by our users.
As you may know, the software development cycle requires many permutations and combinations to align for a successful product release. Unfortunately, some features have experienced delays—but rest assured, we’re working hard to make them available as soon as possible!

Looking ahead to the rest of 2024
As we step into H2, we’ve finalized a list of features that have been prioritized based on popular demand. Our goal is to strike a balance between customer requests and larger industry trends, such as AI, ensuring that our platform continues to evolve with the times. We’re committed to maintaining the momentum that has brought so many upgrades across all modules of our platform.
The features in our pipeline are:
  • Multiple image & file uploads
  • Widget JS API 2.1
  • Zia Assistance using Zoho GenAI
  • Expandable RTF and multi line fields in reports
  • Subform data export customization
  • Name personalization for users and portal users
  • Log in to portals using LinkedIn accounts
  • Workflows for integration forms
  • Page charts enhancements

Detailed information about each of the above updates has been added to our refreshed Product Roadmap page.


While these listed features are our primary focus for H2, there are a lot of other things we're hard at work at. You may be pleasantly surprised by some of the additional updates we're trying to roll out during this period, so stay tuned and keep your fingers crossed!

We hope that Release Projection 2 will offer some valuable insights to help you plan your upcoming projects and apps. As these features get closer to release, we’ll share more detailed information to keep you fully informed.

Thank you for your continued support of Zoho Creator. We hope you enjoy the new features, and we'd love to hear what you think of them. Please don't hesitate to send us your feedback, questions, or concerns.
