In the wake of COVID-19 outbreak, we took an early action to protect our employees and surrounding communities. We called for a company wide ban on travel and cancelled upcoming events, including trade shows, meetups, and Zoholics, our annual user conference series held across the world.

We implemented an early 'Work from Home' (WFH) policy for all our employees worldwide as a precautionary measure. We did it to prioritize the safety of our employees, their families, and our customers and business associates. Our software, services, and customer support has continued uninterrupted throughout this time.

We wanted to make it easier for governments, non-profits and community organisations to create solutions to help combat the pandemic. We're offering our application-building expertise free of charge, to create solutions that'll help people in the field to combat the disease more effectively. Learn more.

While we shifted quickly to the WFH set-up, we watched the world adjust to a remote work environment to combat the virus and wanted to help. So we created 'Zoho Remotely', a comprehensive suite of communication, productivity, and collaboration software tools to enable everything people need for remote working. Remotely is being offered for free until July 1st, 2020.

We made the difficult decision to cancel our annual user conference 'Zoholics' across 14 countries, including Europe's flagship two-day conference in London, scheduled for May 27th & 28th.

Zoholics UK brings together our largest user base in the Europe. However, we had to prioritise the safety of our users, employees, and our partners. We gave a full refund on all purchased tickets.

We are currently looking into alternative routes to ensure we can bring you help and guidance from our product experts no matter where you are. Watch this space for more updates.

Zoho gives me a great deal of peace of mind not only does it support the business that I have now but I feel confident that as my business grows Zoho is going to be there and provide that support for me.

The biggest benefit we have seen using Zoho is the client retention, gives us the flexibility to really ensure that we maximize the opportunities with the reach and communication with people, not just our customers but also the internal network that we have.
