Zoho Rolled Out Single Sign-on

calendar Posted on October 7, 2006   comments 2 Comments

Last night the folks from Zoho rolled out one of their least flashy and most useful upgrades thus far: Single Sign-on for all their services. No more keeping track of different IDs or registrations for the various Zoho products, one gets you all.

Jumping from one Zoho offering to another works great in my testing so far. I logged into Planner, then jumped over to Writer, then Show. The only one that initially went awry was my leap to Zoho Sheet. That one just didn’t seem to like me very much.

However, after a quick visit to the new “Accounts” screen accessable from any of the Zoho apps (mentioned in their blog post), all seems to be fine. I didn’t really do anything, but I launched Sheet from there and got right in.

I even jumped into Chat and Creator and those are two services I hadn’t ever tried before.

I first mentioned this SSO thing at the end of August. In the grand scheme of things, a month and a half to build and deploy something like this seems rather impressive. Especially when you look at all the other stuff they’ve been up to along the way.
