not so zoho

You know the nice things I wrote yesterday about ZoHo? I take most of them back.

Their word processing app is fairly decent, but their wiki and creator products really aren't that good. The wiki support page is full of unanswered questions dating back nearly a year, the database creator is agonizingly frustrating to use if you trying to do anything non-drool-inducing (like add a formula to calculate someone's current age given their birthday), and the docs are double-plus-ungood.

Microsoft's got nothing to worry about there.

  1. I am sorry you didn't like Zoho Wiki & Creator. We are working on improving them continuously, and we hope we can meet your needs in future. On the support front, we do take every support request seriously. Sometimes a forums thread may be followed up via email, which may be why you are not seeing the follow up there.

    Thanks,
