Quick solution, but not very user-friendly or suitable for collaboration
It's not a good solution for collaboration. We're using it because of the price. It's not very strong or comparable with Office 365. An additional feature I would like to see is the ability to connect from different devices. Zimbra could be more user-friendly and deploy security rules. The integration with Outlook could be better to share agendas.
Salem Shafik - PeerSpot reviewer
Zoho Mail suits small businesses well but can improve user organization features
For the admin side of Zoho Mail, they need to add features for organizing users in organizational units. We currently only have the ability to add users to groups, but some admins need to organize users in organizational units and apply security policies or other configurations based on these units.

"Their experience with Zoho Mail has been positive, as customers haven't complained about anything."
"The interconnectivity between these applications makes it particularly useful."
"Zoho Mail is a cost-effective solution."

"Zoho Mail is a stable product."
"We can create email accounts for our customers."
"The notifications, scheduling, and meetings are all integrated."
 

Cons

"It's not a good solution for collaboration. We're using it because of the price. It's not very strong or comparable with Office 365."
"The solution’s stability could be improved."
"They could increase the available space which is currently 5 GB. Gmail provides 15 GB of storage space, which would be more useful."
"Zoho Mail is not as good as G Suite, which has integrated calendars."
"The solution's meeting plans and online virtual activity task list could be improved and made more seamless."
"They have issues when they are rolling out updates"
"The solution doesn't need to be improved."
"The initial setup of Zoho Mail can take some time because we have 30 to 35 users and we need to register each one. This can take one or two days to complete. The process could be better for administrators to register their users. If the setup interface was better in explaining the process it would be helpful to become more user-friendly."
"The interface isn't quite good. Everything looks a little low-quality."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It's an open-source solution so it's free."
"The solution is more affordable compared to other products. It is cheap."
"If you have ten users, for Google, you'll pay $100. With Zoho Mail, you'll only pay $30 to $40."
"Zoho Mail is more cost-efficient than its competitors."
"There is no license required to use Zoho Mail."
"The solution’s pricing is very reasonable."
"One of the reasons people use Zoho in Nigeria is because we can pay for it in Naira. It's very affordable already. For example, we can get Zoho Mail for somewhere between 1000 naira per user, which is less than one dollar. In my opinion, it's very affordable."
"Zoho One has all 50 applications in it, and Zoho Mail is part of it. Zoho One is about 35 GBP per person per month. It includes Zoho Projects, Zoho Mail, Zoho CRM, and everything else."
"The solution is not costly."
