Zoho reinvents its cloud storage with WorkDrive

Work as we know it has evolved. The modern workplace is more flexible, dynamic, and team-centric. Employees collaborate across multiple locations, and every team member has an individual sense of responsibility.

Keeping pace with the changing workplace means the tools we use need to evolve too. This is why Zoho introduces WorkDrive—to fit right into a team-driven work environment.

WorkDrive has been designed from the bottom up to serve the needs of the team as a cohesive work unit. Team-wide collaboration, sharing, and distribution of content—from draft to final copy—is built into the product explicitly. A range of collaboration tools—such as drafting, notifications, commenting, and activity tracking—enable joint work.

That joint work happens best when the system gets out of the way and lets people do their jobs. To minimize bottlenecks and empower employees, WorkDrive prioritizes self-management. By setting up policies governing permissions and access control at the outset, a team can define the parameters for ongoing collaborative work, requiring no additional supervision and avoiding continuous intervention and management by system admins.

With the structure of the team in place, WorkDrive then equips employees with the tools they need to get their work done. More than just a file storage platform, WorkDrive comes with a full-featured cloud Office Suite that includes a spreadsheet app (Zoho Sheet), a document editor (Zoho Writer), and presentation software (Zoho Show). With these sophisticated tools, WorkDrive teams can create complex and attractive business documents—like financial plans, contracts, and marketing presentations—by working together from start to finish.

WorkDrive offers a desktop app that lets you sync files to multiple computers, edit them offline, and perform complete or partial syncs back to the cloud. This, along with native mobile iOS and Android apps, enables work and engagement from any device or location—on the ground or in the air.

Past approaches to cloud storage and sharing were built around an individual user. WorkDrive, however, went about reinventing this category. Rather than tacking collaboration features onto a product designed for personal use, WorkDrive has been built from the ground up to provide all organizations with a true content collaboration platform in every sense.

Not only is WorkDrive integrated with Zoho’s extensive suite of business applications, but it also works well with Microsoft Office Suite, Gmail, and other external apps through Zapier. This makes WorkDrive an ideal solution for any industry or work process.

WorkDrive is set up for modern teams. Whether that team consists of all the employees of a small business or a subset of specialists at a much larger enterprise, WorkDrive ensures that the right information is available to the right people, at the right time.

Aarthi Elizabeth is a Product Marketing Manager at Zoho. She and her team are responsible for strategic marketing initiatives, product positioning, advertising campaigns and business development for three exciting products under the Zoho umbrella - Zoho WorkDrive, Zoho ShowTime, and Zoho Show.
