Exploring the ZOHO Online Office Suite: Beyond Sheets and Writer
A positive initial impression of the ZOHO Online Office Suite has been formed. Following a review of ZOHO Sheets and Writer, this article delves into a more comprehensive exploration of the suite’s additional applications.
ZOHO Show 2.0: A Presentation Tool
ZOHO Show 2.0 functions as a direct alternative to Microsoft PowerPoint. It provides the capability to import existing PowerPoint presentations seamlessly, or to initiate the creation of new presentations from the ground up.
Similar to the experience with Sheets and Writer, importing a PowerPoint presentation into ZOHO Show 2.0 proved to be straightforward. The application also includes a selection of objects, such as Clip Art, to enhance presentations.
A beneficial feature of the ZOHO suite is its automatic saving functionality, which periodically preserves any document currently being edited.
The user interface of ZOHO Show, mirroring Sheets and Writer, offers easily accessible controls and an intuitive layout, facilitating a smooth workflow.
The initial slide displayed below was imported directly from a local computer into ZOHO.
The subsequent slide demonstrates the addition of ZOHO Clip Art to an original PowerPoint slide.
While the Microsoft Office Suite undoubtedly offers a more extensive range of options, ZOHO presents a viable solution for quickly creating visually appealing presentations and enabling collaborative work. A ZOHO representative confirmed upcoming support for Microsoft Office 2007 applications.
Compared to Google Docs, ZOHO has proven to be highly effective, fulfilling all necessary requirements. It also incorporates a wealth of additional features, which will be examined in greater detail in future articles.
