Billing for Fixed Fee Projects
Hello Zoho Community! Hoping someone could shed some light on the best way to bill clients (in multiple installments) for a fixed fee project. We are a professional services firm and many of our projects are billed on a fixed fee basis vs billing for staff time (i.e. time and materials, or T&M). It seems very straight forward in Zoho Projects to set the billing method as either bill based on "staff hours" or "project hours," but how do you bill for a fixed fee? I also need to make sure that the invoices

Milestone
New to Zoho and trying to get acquainted. According to PMI a milestone "anticipates what the project is supposed to achieve at a pre-set date. It should describe a desired state of affairs, a desired future situation. There are two important aspects to this. First, the concept refers to a point in time, not a period of time. Second, it looks forward to what we want to create, not how we create it." Why are Zoho milestones defined between two dates and as bins for tasks? Why would you even consider

Offline Usage
Do you have plans to explore options to use Zoho Project offline. I love it, but it presents issues that I cannot take my tasks with me when I am not connected to the internet on the road. I understand having all the documents and such available might not be possbile, but surely the tasks and milestones could be. I am thinking something with Google Gears. Please let me know.

There must be a way to choose more than one owner or user of the Tasks, Task Lists, Milestones, etc - on a team, sometimes more than one person is responsible. In the drop down list - you shuld be able to select more than one item/person. Besides "Owner" , we should have the ability to "assign" tasks to others, but not just 1 or just all or just none - should be able to choose. Thank you! B

Manage Followers
Hello Zoho team, It will be very nice if the Followers can be added/removed in a similar fashion as you can add/remove Owners in tasks. Right now it is hard because you have to open task by task, which it is too much work and very inefficient for the Project Manager. Also it is very inconvenient the fact that you have no way to remove a follower from a task....
