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.

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.

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

Send mass email using my secondary email
Hello, When I send an email to just one person from Zoho CRM, a complete email editor appears, where I can choose which of my email addresses I want to use in the From field.

When I configure an email template, I can choose who is in the From field, but I can't set it to use my secondary address. The only way to send a mass email using my secondary address that I can think of is swapping my two addresses in
