Zoho Corporation has launched Zoho Projects Plus, a powerful new platform designed to transform project management for mid-sized and large organizations. Zoho Projects Plus integrates four core Zoho applications - Zoho Projects, Zoho WorkDrive, Zoho Analytics, and Zoho Sprints - into a unified solution, making it easier for teams to collaborate, manage data, and drive business intelligence.
What Makes Zoho Projects Plus Different?
Building on the success of Zoho Projects, which saw 55% of new users migrate from Microsoft Projects and JIRA in 2024, Zoho Projects Plus expands on this momentum by addressing the growing complexity of project management. The platform covers four key areas:
- Data Democratisation – Ensuring all team members have access to critical project data for smarter decision-making.
- AI and Automation – Leveraging Zoho’s AI engine, Zia, to automate complex data analysis and provide predictive insights.
- Hybrid Project Management – Supporting both Agile and Waterfall workflows for flexible project execution.
- Collaborative Work Management – Centralising project communication, file sharing, and task management.
Why It Matters?
Enterprise customers have long used Zoho Projects and Zoho Analytics together to track progress and analyse performance. Now, Zoho Projects Plus consolidates these capabilities into a single platform, streamlining operations and improving efficiency.
Steve Wooster, Vice President of Operations at Virtuoso, shared his experience:
"Our journey with Zoho started when we switched from Microsoft Dynamics in 2020 to reduce costs and increase efficiency. Since then, we've adopted a range of Zoho apps across our business. Projects Plus enhances that experience by integrating Zoho Projects, Zoho Sprints, and Zoho Analytics into a single platform. The increased visibility and real-time insights have improved communication, coordination, and overall project success."
AI-Driven Insights and Smarter Project Planning
Zoho Projects Plus leverages data and AI to enhance project planning and execution:
- Progress Tracking – Real-time dashboards for tracking progress and identifying bottlenecks.
- Predictive Analysis – Forecast risks, estimate timelines, and anticipate resource needs.
