Thing #9: Online Productivity Tools


For the discovery exercise I began by creating a free account for myself in Zoho Docs on my mobile phone.  I did so by going into by the playstore, the application on android where you purchase your apps, and I downloaded and installed Zoho.

 


Once I downloaded the application I proceeded to open it.  One thing I thought that was very interesting was that Zoho Docs allowed you to sign in using your Google account.  Since, I am already a Google account user this process was as simple as a press of a button.


Zoho Docs allows you to create documents, spreadsheets, and other presentations while also saving them. You are able to access the information from any location using a device with internet connection at any time. As an example I created a documents from notes that I took during Sunday's church sermon.  This application was so convenient that I was able to type it right from my phone and save it. If I wanted I could also share my notea just as you would on the web.

        

 

Once I returned home I proceeded in going to Zoho Docs from my laptop to explore more.  Upon logging in the site automaticlly pulled up all the documents that were created and automatically saved.  In the options tab there are other items to choose from depending on what you wanted to do running from sales & marketing to finance to email & collaboration. There is also a way for you to create your own network with the choice of it being either internally or externally  within you organization.




Zoho also allows you to create a mailing address for free.  However, for businesses and/or organizations  it would cost, depending on what particular plan you chose which was also based off of how often you used the server.
