Zoho Writer Reviews

What I really like is that, in addition to its writing capabilities, Zoho Writer allows you to integrate other software such as Google Drive or OneDrive, making it easy to access and import your stored files.

What I don't like is the interface, which I personally don't appreciate much, despite it being a good text editing tool.

Zoho writer is an excellent, completely free document editor with an elegant design and awesome export options.

I have only found three small issues with Zoho writer:

1) Onboarding within the Android app is slow and often crashes the app

2) Copy Paste from other apps is slightly strange and loses all formatting, including paragraph breaks.

3) There is no markdown support

The software works well, nothing to say about it, but it have really anything more than google docs?

it's expensive and do nothing significant more than free alternatives

Any frustrated user of Google Docs should run not walk to check out Zoho Writer, a free online collaborative writing tool that equals Docs in every way and surpasses it in many others. Yes, you can collaborate with others on a document, just like Docs, which means you can comment, contribute together, and write together in real time. It's also easier to track and see changes in Zoho Writer than it is in Docs. You can publish to a Wordpress blog. Seriously I would need to write a blog post to over Zoho Writer's features than Docs can't match, but here's a few that I like and use: Templating (any doc you create can become a template for new docs); built-in mail merge; electronic signatures, importing documents from other cloud drives; saving to other cloud drives; per document offline mode; exporting as epub, open document (or Word, of course); a well-designed interface with color icons; personal dictionary; Quick Text (autotype of sorts); built-in thesaurus; endnotes and footnotes; table of contents; extensive formatting and printing tools.... OK, I'll stop. The feature list is extensive. If there's something Zoho Writer lacks, I haven't noticed it yet.

It runs a little slow on underpowered machines, like the Chromebook I'm writing on now. Also, it wasn't immediately apparent how to turn off seeing and tracking changes.

Zoho Writer is an awesome document processing tool which help users to collaborate and edit simultaneously.
Following are the key features of Zoho Writer:
1. Helps in working remotely
2. Enables users to add comments
3. Emojis are available
4. Marking chapters and separators in the document
5. Template for various purposes

There is nothing to dislike about Zoho Writer. New features are coming in to compete with the MS office products.
A very well tool to replace Google Docs.

The way we can create our own template for all our future documents and how it is so easy to directly publish WordPress blogs makes it much better when compared to its competitors.

Well, it's free software with so many features and there is hardly anything I dislike about it. Just that it sometimes gets stuck!

Its affordable, easy to use and we can use it in any device

Not fully compatible with MS word, we have issues with templates

I love Zoho writer as it has a lot more features, better layout, and works as expected.

I don't like that they don't have a desktop app.

I first encountered Zoho Writer 10 years ago, because I was looking for an alternative to Microsoft Word. It was the precursor to Google Docs and 10 years later I am still impressed with its simple interface, easy functionality and great customer service. The fact that Zoho Writer is cloud bases was my "green light" to continue using it. I knew that I'd always have a backup of my documents in case my hard drive gave out. I also like that you can attach other well known apps to Zoho Writer as well.

There's nothing that I don't like about this program. I

The neat interface helps you focus purely on your writing, and it has three modes for Compose, Review and Distribute life-cycles of document creation. It has both online and offline modes, and integrates very well with WorkDrive and other products of the Zoho suite. The intelligent writing assistant, powered by Zia is also a good touch.

I would love to see a programmatic / scripting interface to automate various aspects of the writing life cycle.

I have an older computer that doesn't support traditional word document programs. Being a webmaster, I appreciate the ability to completely customize documents, down to the finest details. The integration within Writer is so awesome. You can share the documents with your contacts directly from the application, and if you have Zoho e-mail it will auto populate your contacts as you type them in. When creating the actual documents, rearranging content and editing it is so easy and fast. It has a very legible (and collapsible!) editing interface, allowing you to quickly find the editing tool that you need. Just like other Zoho applications, every function is easily searchable, and intelligently itemized on the toolbar. I was so surprised at just how many templates are already on the application. You can pick one and completely customize the whole thing. Being a fan of the Microsoft excel format, I love that the "text boxes" are actual tables and cells. It makes using the program very easy to learn. It's free with a Zoho account and super easy and fast to install the web application.

The application is sometimes buggy, but it's a free app. When moving content from page to page it tends to jump around and make the application run slowly, or crash altogether. Other than that, it's perfectly fine for daily use!

I'm primarily in the product for time & attendance but we're considering a few other Zoho solutions. Zoho is easy to use and very easy to export data for the purposes of analytics. When working on government contracts this is of prime importance.

There are many HRIS systems that have this functionality tied into a more robust systems. But I guess it comes down to what you need it for if you don't need an HRIS but are in the market for a CRM then Zoho will do the trick and its priced better than Salesforce.

With some tasks, the program copes much better than a word. I checked this on myself. Take at least a spelling check. A quality and convenient program that is less demanding of resources and is available 24 hours a day via the Internet.

The menu is located non-standard, but so much more convenient, in fact. We just got used to it differently, but you get used to the good quickly. It is worth adding integration with other applications.

We love to use this software, specially our sales representatives, because they are always around the city driving, so they can share files and every updates they want to do on real time.

The app run slow sometimes, but it’s ok.

great alternative to microsoft office and word. has the same features but you'll have to do a quick learning of their menu paths

have to learn how zoho classifies different functionality. it's just about the same but why learn another system when u could use g-docs

This cloud solutions make me more proactive because I can create letters or any kind of document only with any computer with internet.

There is nothing that I don´t like about this software. I a very useful solution that help you to be more productive everywhere.

1) The simplicity of the UI
2)The online tools
3)Easily accessible
4)Does not need that much internet
5)Can merge files and which is free

The UI could be more modernized and should be lightweight

I recommend trying a new version of an online editor for text documents. My opinion is clear - google documents and Word-online it's time to send to retire. Zoho Writer - really cool thing.

The package is still in the shadows and few people know about it. Therefore, there is not enough training material to work with it.

I was surprised out how polished Zoho Writer is. Zoho makes plenty of templates available from the get-go, and collaborating with your team is seamless.

For free, there's really not much to complain about here. It takes a little bit of getting used to because the navigation panels are placed differently than what you're typically used to, but it won't take you long to get used to it.

Apart from it is free, it provides many good features. I liked its font list, document design, change tracking features. As it is online, we do not need to bother about saving it every time on the system.

I think the only con with Zoho writer application is that sometimes, it takes little time in loading.

I like using Zohar writer for its clean and crisp UI. Very useful and simple online word processor for everyday use.

I think I don't have any complaints regarding this tool. I love using this tool personally and I want to use it always.
