Time Tracking on the go!

Posted on by

The Zoho Invoice iPhone and Android apps now include

time tracking, a simple, no-fuss way to track time. This

was
one of the most requested features since we launched these apps, and we
are glad that we can check this off our agenda, with a smile.


 

Here is a run down on all the cool things you can do with this feature:


  • Record the time taken for a task right when you are done with it. No excuses here, now that it’s available on your phone :)


  • Add notes and capture any lapses in schedules      

  • Time your tasks and see how well you stick to timelines and forecasts
  • Make life uber simple with the inbuilt timer, a single tap timing option. Once you are done
    timing, tap again and select the task that’s timed.

  • One tap access to timer, projects and time entries        


Saying too
much isn’t going to satiate your need to try this out.


Gaining benefit from social media when you don’t even use social media

Social customer care is great if you’re using a social channel. Problem is there are still plenty of people that only use traditional channels and get no advantage from the social channels.

At the CRM Evolution Conference I spoke with Ian Jacobs, a Senior Analyst on Customer Interaction for Ovum. Jacobs offered up a possible non-adhoc scenario to integrate social media into the knowledge management database as core corporate information.

The social channel handles things that aren’t in the company’s knowledge database. How do you get at that knowledge and then get it into the company, asked Jacobs. The trick is finding a method to validate the correctness. The technology to do just that is not fully baked, admitted Jacobs.

Ultimately, what Jacobs envisions is a series of automated tasks that use trust mechanisms, which then make that social input part of the company’s overall knowledge base.…

Today at Zoho Recruit, we are excited to 
announce the long-awaited integration that allows you to post jobs to popular free online job boards, such as
SimplyHired.com and


Indeed.com
.



With this new feature, you can now post multiple job openings to Indeed and Simply Hired directly from Zoho Recruit -

Applicant Tracking System
Once the candidate applies to the job opening, the candidate details are captured inside Zoho Recruit.

In addition, the advanced candidate tracking allows you to track candidate traffic from Indeed and Simply Hired. This, in turn, helps you to measure which job board is sending quality candidates.


We hope you like this new integration!


More integrations with

Juju
 and other paid Job Boards are on the way. Stay tuned!

So, you have brought in all the relevant data from the diverse business applications you use, into Zoho Reports, and created all those beautiful reports and dashboards. Now comes the hardest part. How do you share them with your colleagues/clients and make them consume the reports/dashboards regularly? This is where scheduled emailing of reports comes in handy.

You can create appropriate schedules based on the reports you need to share. Say, you can create a schedule that will mail a bunch of monthly reports to your CEO every first of the month. Or a weekly report on every Monday to your Sales Manager of how the previous week’s sales have been.

There are lots of schedule options available, ranging from daily to weekly to monthly to yearly.

Try the scheduling feature from the Export menu button. Hope you will be scheduling all the reports you have created in Zoho Reports from now on.…

to communicate regularly with candidates during a recruitment campaign. At

Zoho
, we understand the value of your requirements and make things easier for you.


Today, we are happy to announce the launch of mass emailing in Zoho Recruit. Now you can easily

to a custom group of candidates, informing them about current job openings, seminars, tests, etc., all in a single click. Not only that, but you can personalize the email messages as well.

If you live in a metropolitan area of the U.S., you’re probably
fortunate in that you don’t have to think about where your power comes from,
and only occasionally do you think about where your connectivity comes from.


Cloud computing and productivity revolution

“You can quote them; disagree with them; glorify or vilify them. But the only thing you can’t do is ignore them” (thanks, Apple, for that eccentric commercial). Cloud computing isn’t as new as it seems and is popular among businesses of all types and sizes. Legacy or conventional desktop computing has been trending for longer than it should have been. Thankfully, it is fast changing. Changing to cloud computing. Cloud computing refers to software services and platforms offered through the Internet and is available to organizations on the basis of subscription. The cloud has been around for quite a while now, and is becoming the preferred choice for many businesses. Why are these organizations, that were doing fine with installed software, now turning to the cloud? What in cloud computing has won them over?
