Zoho integrates with Google Gears!

  21 Aug 2007 by ReviewSaurus

zohooffline Zoho is working on a feature which will integrate Zoho Writer with Google Gears and will give the capabilities of offline viewing of the documents. Editing of documents is yet not available.

This editing feature is yet not available but according the Zoho representative, they’ll be making this feature available by next 4-5 weeks and as far as viewing feature is concerned, you’ll be able to have that feature by next few hrs. Well, this step will certainly make Zoho another step closer to becoming the best online office service.

Right now, the only service which offers offline editing is ThinkFree with their downloadable offline version which can be purchased from here but if Zoho will be able to provide the following service for free then I’m sure they’ll have much more customer’s than any other online office service.

(You may not see this at this point of time, but you’ll get this soon)

As of now, you may watch this video for the demo of Zoho Writer Offline .

What do you think about this feature of Zoho, will this feature give tough competition to the other services ?

    @ Gautam : Yes, Zoho is a catch domain and I’m still wondering that you didn’t even heard of them till this time! Hey Zoho guys, you need to change yourself as advertiser from techcrunch and start advertising here. You’ll get more publicity :P

    @ Thilak : thanks a lot for the link back buddy.
