Zoho - Online spreadsheets and documents
Tuesday, September 19, 2006
Now here is the serious competition to
Google Writely. Zoho office and productivity tools with some good free utilities, completely based on AJAX, it means all you have to need any latest Internet browser which is AJAX compliant. I found two of the tools from Zoho bucket very useful,
Zoho Writer and
Zoho Sheet.
Zoho WriterAccess, create, edit, share your documents from anywhere through Zoho Writer. You can import Microsoft Word (DOC), OpenOffice text (ODT & SXW), HTML, RTF, JPG, GIF & PNG files also can export documents created in Zoho Writer as PDF, DOC, ODT, SXW, RTF, HTML & text files. You can directly post documents to your blogs like WordPress, Blogger, TypePad and Live Journal.
Zoho Writer packs most of the functions along the top of the document pane, with familiar graphical icons. I like the bottom icons that display the document’s tags and sharing status. You can also keep multiple Zoho files open at the same time. By default, Zoho Writer organizes your open documents within tabs."
Zoho SheetZoho Sheet is a web based alternative to traditional spreadsheet applications, like MS Excel or Openoffice Calc. It provides basic spreadsheet functionalities coupled with web based features like sharing, tagging, publishing and more. As Writer you can import and export to all famous spreadsheet formats. You can now embed your spreadsheets into your website pages or blogs or even a Zoho Writer document or a Zoho Show slide. These are live spreadsheets, so changing the data in Zoho Sheet will automatically be reflected in the published pages.
Here is my publicly shared spreadsheet, you can modify details and charts will affects immediately. I have also shared my '3 Months average balance calculator'As always, for Firefox users there is a cool extention for Zoho office.
QuickRead and you can directly open documents, spreadsheets and presentations present on the web with Zoho! With Zoho QuickRead, downloading files to your computer & opening it with a desktop app becomes passé.
Propagate!
