Meet the All-New Zoho Writer: Word Processing, Re-Imagined. 8 años ago

Gif-Blog-Post

From scribbling down thoughts on a piece of paper to real-time collaboration, the way people write has changed over the last decades. Computers took over for notepads. Blogs replaced discussion forums. Word processors became the ultimate tool we use to write and inspire the world with our ideas.

But as word processing tools became more sophisticated, they also became more cluttered. They became a place of “work” rather than of “great work”.

At Zoho, we believe writing should empower you: empower you to persuade minds, move hearts, and take action. Tools that aim to help shouldn’t distract. And that’s how we came up with the idea of creating tools that flow with your style of work, instead of forcing their style on you.

Meet the all-new Zoho Writer!

Introducing Modes

Zoho Writer’s new UI follows the life cycle of a document. We give you the exact tools you need, but only when you need them.

Compose mode gives you the most space to jot down your thoughts. Create and edit your documents with contextually placed tools that cut through the clutter.
