We vieren 100+ WordPress plugin-integraties in Zoho Flow
We zijn verheugd om een belangrijke mijlpaal met u te delen - Zoho Flow ondersteunt nu meer dan 100 WordPress plugin integraties! De Zoho Flow plugin in WordPress heeft ook 4000+ downloads bereikt. Deze prestatie komt slechts zeven maanden nadat we de 50 plugins in onze WordPress integratie galerij hebben overschreden. Met deze integraties kunt u workflows automatiseren tussen uw WordPress ecosysteem en meer dan 1.000 zakelijke apps. Van e-commerce en online formulieren tot marketingautomatisering en CMS, u kunt nu taken stroomlijnen tussen afdelingen en teams zonder afhankelijk te zijn van meerdere integratieplugins, aangepaste code of verschillende integratieplatforms.

Zoho Social wordt 10 jaar!
In de afgelopen tien jaar heeft Zoho Social zich ontwikkeld tot een krachtige tool voor het beheren van sociale media. Van LinkedIn tot WhatsApp tot Threads, de software stelt bedrijven van alle groottes in staat om eenvoudig hun social media accounts bij te houden en te beheren.
Er zijn belangrijke mijlpalen bereikt, zoals meer dan 10 miljoen verzonden berichten en meer dan 100 miljoen gepubliceerde posts... Dit wakkert het vuur van onze ontwikkelaars aan om te blijven groeien en de functionaliteit van Zoho Social te verbeteren, en er is ons verteld dat automatisering hoog op de prioriteitenlijst staat voor de komende tien jaar.
Van harte gefeliciteerd Zoho Social!

Direct e-mails versturen via de Cases module in CRM
De mogelijkheid om e-mails te versturen vanuit de Cases module, waar gebruikers reikhalzend naar hebben uitgekeken, is nu beschikbaar, net als in de andere modules. Cases is een module in Zoho CRM die speciaal is ontworpen voor het beheren van supporttickets. Als uw organisatie een helpdesk of een vergelijkbare tool heeft, kan een gebruiker de tickets direct vanuit de Cases module oplossen.
Voorheen moesten gebruikers naar de module Contacten gaan om een e-mail te versturen over een case. Bovendien verschenen bij het bekijken van gegevens van een contactpersoon alle e-mails die aan de contactpersoon waren gekoppeld, waardoor het lastig was om e-mails te vinden die betrekking hadden op een specifieke zaak.
In deze verbetering kunnen gebruikers ervoor kiezen om alle casusspecifieke e-mails te bekijken die naar de gekoppelde contactpersoon zijn verzonden vanuit de module Zaken, waardoor extra context wordt geboden. Gebruikers kunnen nu ook individuele e-mails en massamails rechtstreeks vanuit de module Zaken naar de gerelateerde contactpersoon sturen.
Bekijk deze verbetering hier in meer detail.
Maak kennis met LiveCast in Zoho Show
Naarmate de wereld digitaal verandert, verdwijnt vaak de menselijke maat in de manier waarop we dingen doen. In zo'n scenario kunnen persoonlijke contacten het verschil maken - of u nu uw volgende grote idee presenteert, een teamtraining geeft of een klantpresentatie geeft.
Eén manier om deze connecties op te bouwen is door uw publiek u te laten zien terwijl u presenteert. Om dit mogelijk te maken, introduceren we nu LiveCast in Zoho Show!
Met deze functie kunt u uw live video in dia's weergeven, zodat uw publiek zowel uw aanwezigheid als uw inhoud kan zien.
Ontdek hier hoe u deze functie inschakelt.

Formatting of text pasted into Zoho documents
Howdy, I'm a newbie and finding Zoho an improvement to MS Word. Consider yourself hugged. High on my wish list would be plain text cut-and-paste. When pasting text from the web to Zoho, presently Zoho imports the formatting along with the text. This means that every cut-and-paste operation brings in text in a different font, size, or style. Can we have at least the option of importing plain text without formatting (or better yet, is this option already out there?) ... Thanks Helen

Make panel configuration interface wider
Hi there, The same way you changed the custom function editor's interface wider, it would be nice to be able to edit panels in pages using the full width of the screen rather than the currently max-width: 1368px.

Please change it to 100% so we can better edit the layouts. Thanks! B.
