FEATURED STORY

Small businesses, big impact

Small businesses are at the very heart of all our initiatives. On International MSME Day, we wanted to do more to empower and recognize their invaluable contribution to our communities by extending a helping hand.

Zoho Empower

We understand how taxing the process of accommodating new technology can be initially. So, to make the adoption process smoother, we launched a Zoho Empower program to give MSMEs a technological leg up and help them unlock more opportunities.

Backed by our incredible partners and government bodies, this program ensures small businesses can embed technology into every aspect of their organization and adapt to change more easily.

Your go-to accounting solution—now for free

Recognizing how Zoho Books has been the trusted accounting solution for thousands of businesses across the globe, we have introduced a free plan of Zoho Books to help more businesses—especially freelancers, startups, and MSMEs—solve accounting challenges and transform their financial workspace. With this plan, small businesses can replace traditional and spreadsheet accounting, automate manual tasks, and more. Learn more about our free Zoho Books plan

In an attempt to promote entrepreneurship, especially in rural areas, we've partnered with Jagriti Enterprise Centre-Purvanchal. This partnership seeks to decentralize development by incubating 3500 local and small businesses and giving technical support to over 20,000 more companies under a digital center of excellence (CoE).
