Zoho Gets All Wiki
The feature set includes separate read/write permissions, RSS feeds, an admin dashboard for overall wiki management, and a number of skins to choose from. The underlying engine is Zoho Writer, and the popular keyboard shortcuts also work in the Wiki. The Wiki pages support HTML, CSS,
JavaScript, etc.

Zoho Wiki brings wikis and office apps together
I like how Zoho is developing its suite of Web-based software. New Web applications keep rolling out, while Zoho continues to focus on improving existing tools. Zoho Wiki is the only recent release that's caught my attention and is an app that brings it all together. While the other Zoho apps have been useful on their own, Wiki lets you build projects that are truly massive in their reach without having to use or buy other products.
Zoho Introduces Web-Based Wiki Software: It’s Free!
Zoho, the web-based application provider, continues to pound out new services and features. These guys continue to release a new service or enhance their many useful services on an almost weekly basis. Bottom line: Totally impressive services and in most cases the price is right, free!
Wiki vs Web Hosting: What's More Popular?
It looks awesome: along with all the usual wiki features like edit history tracking and reversion to previous versions, you can insert graphs/spreadsheets/slideshows/forms from Zoho Office, as well as videos/photos from third party sites.
Zoho Adds Wiki Features
Zoho is pushing their wiki as “wiki for the rest of us,” with some nice features like a WYSIWYG editing interface with spell check, revision history and difference comparisons.
Zoho continues its barrage of software offerings, offers Wiki product
We’ve
written about this scrappy, low-cost, but impressive software provider before. It has one of the widest
array of online software products out there, many of them free.
It told VentureBeat yesterday that Zoho Wiki is now available. You can create it for public use, or private use among a group. Zoho’s previous weakness was that many of its products weren’t integrated within the same platform, but it has moved to change that lately. The Wiki, for example uses Zoho Writer as the editor, and appears to have most of the other features you’d want (spell check, integration with spreadsheets, immediate syncing when those spreadsheets are changed, YouTube video embedding, RSS for pages).
Zoho Wiki Released
Zoho continues to be on the ball with their online apps. The levels of integration are very very impressive. If you’re looking for any online solutions, check these guys out first.
Zoho launches Zoho Wiki
The Zoho Wiki product certainly looks better than the standard Wiki software. The best feature from the Zoho Wiki is the ability to sync all of the Zoho applications together. So you embed a text document or a spreadsheet into a Wiki page and then when you edit either doc, the Wiki is updated as well. This certainly will save time and effort and will be excellent for keeping everything up-to-date and in sync.
Zoho adds a wiki
Zoho gets a lot of good reviews from
people who think the applications are more powerful, easier to use, and better integrated than other web-based apps.
The wiki play is a smart move by them, and sooner than I would have expected, in the face of Google’s recent acquisition of JotSpot. While the features won’t compete with Atlassian’s or SocialText’s enterprise offerings, that’s not really what they’re going for. I’m constantly amazed by the pace with which Zoho adds consistently solid applications, and I’m sure their wiki is no exception. If it’s them versus Google in the Web-Office 2.0 race, I’m voting for Zoho.
Advantage of Zoho products over Google’s
Mike Arrington points out to the single advantage Zoho has over the Google Suite. In fact, this was my concern in using the Google suite too.
the entire Zoho suite of products is on the same overall architecture, making syncronization and new feature releases much easier between applications. Contrast that to Google’s suite, including two acquired products (Writely and JotSpot) and one mostly home-grown one (Spreadsheets). It will never be as homogenous as what Zoho has created.
Zoho go all wiki
Zoho Wiki Builds Office 2.0
The free collaborative tool includes the ability to embed documents or files from any other product in Zoho’s Office 2.0 suite, including slide shows (Zoho Show) and forms or applications (via Zoho Creator).
The ability to create small, custom applications wikis was the original market positioning for JotSpot. While JotSpot found that users preferred templates or pre-built applications, Zoho offers this functionality as part of what is now a very complete set of on-demand apps.
Zoho adds wiki to Web apps lineup
Zoho on Wednesday introduced Zoho Wiki, adding joint Web page authoring to its online productivity suite.
According to the Zoho company blog, the free product includes an editor for making wikis and the ability to set up groups of people who can access and edit wikis. It is integrated with Zoho's single sign-on capability and users can embed objects, such as spreadsheets, created with Zoho's other applications.
Daily Report, Dec 21
Zoho Wiki ... Zoho released Zoho Wiki, for online authoring of documents. Includes a WYSIWYG editor, public/private settings at the wiki level, integration with Zoho Single Sign-on, and more.
Zoho wiki launched in beta
The engine behind the wiki is Zoho Writer. Did I say common keyboard shortcuts also work in the Wiki. Not only that you can use scripting like HTML, CSS, JavaScript, etc in wiki pages. The most coolest feature is you can import and export elements from other Zoho products like writer, spreadsheets etc and all perfectly synchronized with each other. You can say Zoho’s wiki is not just a wiki its a collaboration of everything with a word processor.
Zoho Adds Wiki to Online Suite - It's All Coming Together
This product is perhaps the first showcase of how Zoho's long term product strategy will play out...
...While most wikis I know of started their life without
WYSIWYG editing - yes, you had to write ugly markup language - Zoho Wiki shares the codebase of
Zoho Writer, so right at the start you have all the bells and whistles of the popular editor.
...Perhaps the most distinctive feature is how you can
embed objects from other Zoho and 3rd-party applications:
spreadsheets, graphs, presentations, forms, videos, slideshows...etc.
Of course whichever application the data is updated in, it will be reflected in all other apps, typical Zoho-style.
...Considering Zoho's breakneck speed of product releases, I am quite optimistic that we don't have to wait long.
It's all coming together - in 2007.
