Zoho Connect | Product Updates

At Zoho Connect, we have spent the last few months making under-the-hood improvements, squashing bugs, and adding features to improve Connect's functionality. Here's a roundup of everything new in Zoho Connect.

Live Broadcast

Whether it's a company event, or an AMA (Ask me anything) with management, Connect makes it easy to stream it live to 10 employees or 10,000. Sessions can also be recorded so members of your team can access them anytime.

Note: Although the Live Broadcast feature is part of Connect's Ultimate Edition, users subscribed to other plans can still purchase it as an add-on.


Personal Dashboard

To each their own. This is the principle behind personal dashboards in Zoho Connect's internal networks. While the main dashboard acts as a bulletin board for the entire organization, individual users can now configure their own dashboards by using an array of widgets to create a personalized information architecture. Each user can only create one dashboard for themselves.




 

Save posts as drafts

Never worry about losing your content again! Start typing your post and save it as a draft anytime so you can work on it later.

 

Integration with Zoom

With the new Zoom integration for Zoho Connect, users can conveniently schedule and join meetings directly from Connect. This integration enables teams to leverage the features of Zoom for their online meetings without leaving the Zoho Connect environment.

 

Voice notes

Give your thoughts a voice by sharing them as audio notes within posts and comments.

 

Permission-based user roles for Groups

Previously, as part of the Ultimate Edition, we introduced user-based custom roles to manage activities at the organizational level. Now, you can use the custom roles you've created to assign permissions within a Group. For example, if the network admin has created the role of 'Trainer', Group admins can now assign the role to their users for specific activities.

Please note that only users who are part of the Group will have the permissions assigned to them.


Panel for recent updates

Get the latest news on everything that's happening with Connect, from new features to upcoming webinars and more—without leaving the app.

We are always grateful for your continued support.

Thanks,

The Zoho Connect Team
