"Best Employees Management Tool"
What do you like best about Zoho People?

There are a lot of good features but one that I love personally as an employee is Performance Management which helps you set specific goals regarding your career, You also get feedback from the management on that which sets the more transparent evaluation. Other good features are - Leave management, Attendance tracking

What do you dislike about Zoho People?

So far I haven't encountered any problem, as per my observation for some people the learning curve of the product is slightly more.

What problems is Zoho People solving and how is that benefiting you?

The biggest challenge Zoho People solves is that it provides all the essential processes at one platform only so, as a user you don't have to integrate or even use the multiple platforms. So as an example - It has an onboarding process and a centralized HR management system. As an employee, you can easily manage your attendance, leave tracking, and performance appraisals.

What do you dislike about Zoho People?

I have not found any downside as far as usage is concerned. I am not sure of the backend implementation or support.

What problems is Zoho People solving and how is that benefiting you?

Zoho people mainly focuses on the issues related to HR and workforce management. and almost all the things from OnBoarding to Resignation is handled now on Zoho people. Few of the benifits that it is solving is: - Time Tracking. - Project Management. - Data Redundancy. - Central place for all the relevant records of an employee.

It is a great tool to have. We can manage multiple things in one place like leaves, attendance, holidays, regularization, and more.

We use it on a daily basis to log in, log out, and mention breaks. It is integrated with other tools required and we get emails on Outlook as well.

I haven't come across anything major yet that proves to be a major drawback for it.

"Zoho CRM using as sales lead sheet"
