$10 to backup my data – are you joking, this is a complete ripoff Zoho…

Is there a timeframe for this functionality? Please provide the date if one exists.

I agree with Jian. At a minimum, zoho should offer the ability to download all data at once for backup. Selecting individual documents is too cumbersome.

I also want an application which can synchronous all zoho data with desktop-file so we can read these file when Internet is not well.

I really agreen with George.
BTW, it would be better if we can synchronous zoho with desktop file, I mean we can choose reading zoho offline-file(desktop file) when something wrong with internet.
So, I think an desktop-application is very necessary to do synchronization.

This is still insufficient. I want to be able to backup data from all services / applications in a single step. Individual and small batch backups are good only for incrementally backing things up. There really needs to be a better option here.

How do you export data from Zoho Discussions?

I’m developing an app which exports small files for use in another app. Would there be a $10 charge for each of these exports?

As mentioned in the post, There is a batch export option available from the sidebar. Go to sheet.zoho.com. Select upto 10 spreadsheets from the sidebar and use the Actions menu in the sidebar to batch export the selected files as a single zip file.

Is there a way to backup all the Zoho Spreadsheets at once or does each sheet have to be exported individually?

I’m just wondering can i download small reports or bits of data (but not entire datafile- like a list of names of people who attend an event for name tags etc) without incurring a cost of $10?

Do you charge $10 each time a user export their data?
