Online office suite Zoho continued its battle against Google Thursday with the release of Zoho Docs, which integrates the company’s suite of Web-based applications into one offering. Zoho Docs, which is available now at docs.zoho.com, combines Zoho’s Writer (documents), Sheet (spreadsheets), and Show (PowerPoint-esque presentations) offerings into one. It operates much like Google Docs, allowing users to create documents and share them with friends or groups via e-mail.

Zoho Docs allows users to upload ZIP files, exports documents, and it integrates the chat function directly into the Docs window.”Zoho Docs fosters this notion of context-based work by bringing all of a user’s content to a single place without having to go to any individual application.

As,Zoho is a free, feature-rich and probably the most comprehensive web-based office application. Zoho suite includes all popular office applications (Word, Spreadsheet, Presentations, etc.), task management tool, web conferencing, online notebook, web-based project management, and lots more.

Here we present all Zoho services which are useful for better management of work.

    A great alternative to Zoho Projects is Intervals. It has a lot of the same functionality but is targeted more for small business.
