Accessibility controls and multilingual captcha authorization for Help Center users ​

Accessibility controls and multilingual captcha authorization for Help Center users ​

Hello everyone,

As part of our ongoing effort to improve user experience, we are excited about the accessibility controls and predefined accessibility personas added in the Help Center, similar to what is already available in Zoho Desk.

Help Center users come from diverse backgrounds, and some may have difficulties with auditory, visual, cognitive, or learning capabilities that affect the way they search for information. Not all websites and pages cater to individual user needs.

These new accessibility controls allow users to personalize their viewing experience and make the Help Center more inclusive.

The accessibility controls offered for help center users are:

Accessibility personas
The accessibility personas are created specifically for users with unique requirements. The personas such as ADHD, dyslexia, epilepsy, color blindness, and seizure are supported with preset accessibility preferences so that the users can instantly set up an environment that works best for them.





The display, font, color, theme, alignment, contrast, underline, reading tools, and others can be customized using the accessibility settings.

Display


Font


Contrast


Highlights


Cursor


Reading Tools



Multilingual captcha for the help center
Help Center offers multilingual support so customers can experience the UI in the language they are most comfortable with. However, unregistered users often find the captcha verification challenging, as it is available only in English.

To improve user experience, we are allowing multilingual support for both image-based and audio-based captchas.

Image captcha currently supports 52 languages and audio captcha currently supports 6 languages.

For more information on this kindly refer to the help doc: Secure Help Center Access with Multilingual Captcha

Both the features are now available for all users across data centers.

    • Using Agent Email Address as From Address

      Currently, while replying to a ticket, it is possible for agents to choose their own email addresses as 'from' addresses. Although we built this just for that little extra flexibility, in hindsight, it hasn't figured much in conventional usage.  Almost all businesses prefer that responses to their customers' tickets be sent from the common support/service email address and NOT from those of individual agents. During personal interactions at events, some of you have even made passing mentions about

      Hello, I've had a telephone conversation a month ago with Dinesh on this topic and my request to allow for the addition of VAT on Retainer Invoices.  It's currently not possible to add VAT to Retainer Invoices and it was mutually agreed that there is absolutely no reason why there shouldn't be, especially as TAX LAW makes VAT mandatory on each invoice in Europe!   So basically, what i'm saying is that if you don't allow us to add VAT to Retainer Invoices, than the whole Retainer Invoices becomes
