Zoho’s New AI Platform Costs $16/Month, But Is It Worth It?

Zoho has launched a new project management platform for mid-sized and large enterprises called ‘Project Plus’. It integrates Zoho Projects, WorkDrive, Analytics, and Sprints to provide a data-driven, AI-powered approach to project management. So, let’s take a closer look at Zoho’s latest project management offering: 

What Does Zoho’s Projects Plus Offer?

Projects Plus simplifies project collaboration, file management, and real-time analytics while supporting Agile and Waterfall workflows. It aims to reduce dependence on third-party applications. According to Zoho, the platform aims to reduce reliance on third-party applications. The company claims that 55% of new users have migrated from Microsoft Projects and JIRA. It focuses on four key aspects, which include:  

• How It Democratizes Data – Providing access to real-time project data for better decision-making.
• How AI Enhances Project Management – Leveraging Zoho’s AI engine, Zia, for predictive analysis and resource management.
• How It Supports Hybrid Workflows – Allowing teams to switch between Agile and traditional workflows.
• How It Improves Collaboration – Enhancing visibility and coordination across departments. 

Zoho’s AI-powered assistant, Zia, plays a key role in Projects Plus. It offers predictive analysis, bottleneck detection, and quality control monitoring. The AI capabilities aim to help businesses improve efficiency by optimizing resource allocation and forecasting project timelines. Recently, the company has also added new AI tools to Zia, including Zia Agents, Agent Studio, and Agent Marketplace.  

Like many of our Enterprise solutions, Zoho Projects Plus was developed to deliver supreme value and meet the needs our customers had been demonstrating within our software suite, particularly between Zoho Projects and Zoho Analytics. Projects Plus synthesizes the latest AI-driven tools, data-first analytics, and privacy-focused protections into software that anticipates the evolving needs of international Enterprise organizations, expanding Zoho’s global reach.
