ZOHO PROJECTS – TUTORIAL

With this tutorial you can better manage your projects with Zoho Projects:

Zoho Projects – FEATURES

• Tasks: assign tasks to people and follow them as they are done. Set deadlines, priorities and reminders. If the activity involves several actions, it is possible to divide them even more into secondary activities. To establish a schedule on project management you can record the time spent manually or using a timer
• Dependencies: if an activity must be completed before another, the latter is said to depend on the first. Dependencies can be used to control the sequence in which tasks must be completed. You can set dependencies between tasks or view them on the Gantt chart
• Kanban: the Kanban board is a representation of activities as cards placed in different columns. The columns could represent the percentage of tasks complete, the priority of the tasks, or the task lists to which they belong. This is a great place to quickly rearrange things using drag and drop and find out what’s wrong when a project is overdue
• Calendar: schedule events or meetings on the calendar and have everything organized
• Feed: project updates will appear in the feed to let everyone know where things stand and what has been achieved. Post statuses in the feed to make announcements to the entire team and encourage opinions or ideas in comments
• Forum: this is a place to post longer ideas and have more detailed discussions. Classify these topics in folders and keep track of the most important topics. This is a great way to reduce meeting time and keep your team coordinated, especially if some people are working remotely
• Chat: collaborate in real time using our built-in chat rooms to discuss ideas with your team. Keep your topics separate with different chat rooms and refer to what was discussed when needed
• Activity flow: your teammates’ activities on a project are shown in a timeline so you can quickly be updated on what happened over a period of time. This also provides an audit history of the project’s activities.
