Not exactly sure what it's trying to be...

What do you like best?

Before using Zoho Connect, we stored a lot of our company manuals on a Mediawiki. One of the most significant improvements we saw in Connect over the wiki was how easy it was for users to create their content. Mediawiki used markdown at the time, which wasn't intuitive for the uninitiated. Connect was included in our Zoho One package, so switching over to it didn't require a lot of extra work.

What do you dislike?

We utilized Zoho Connect for about two years before nearly abandoning it for Microsoft Teams. Connect didn't offer our users the persistence and the organizational tools that we can get from Teams. In the end, we found Connect very difficult to navigate and often directed users to search for specific keywords to access an article rather than navigate groups and books. Connect doesn't offer revision or change tracking, which is critical in managing company manuals where multiple users provide input. While the authoring system was better than markup, we still found it difficult to make good looking articles with the tools for creating lists, inserting images, and controlling text positioning to be very limited. Further, there's no real extensibility within Connect so you can't add much beyond static media to an article.

Recommendations to others considering the product:

Unless you're using Zoho's environment for everything else, you're sure to find something better. Teams runs laps around Zoho Connect.

What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?

We needed a place to store company manuals that were easy for all users to access no matter where they were.
