Zoho Writer review: Lean, mean, write machine @ powerful browser-based word processor
Zoho Writer is a powerful
browser-based word processor.
Word
processors go a long way -- to the pre-personal computer late 1970s. Older
readers will remember Wordstar, the first and for long, the best of them all --
till Apple's MacWrite and Microsoft's Word appeared. Today, GoogleDocs, found
on Android and Chrome machines is widely used, because it saves you having to
buy an office suite. MS Word has evolved into a good omnibus product --but
sometimes plenty can be problem: so many menus to drop down before you find
your choice of settings... it can be intimidating.
Zoho,
the Chennai-based management products company, has won 18 million users
worldwide for its desi office solutions. Last week it completely re-imagined,
its word processor, Zoho Writer, for a new era of Net-connected, who want a
powerful tool, without all the power visible upfront.
The
new Zoho Writer is opens in a starkly minimalistic screen which hides most of
the functions: they will pop up if you want them. The Writer lets you choose
one of three document stages: Compose, Review, Distribute.
Compose
is fairly standard with a wide choice of fonts, styles and graphics. The Review
feature is the radical new addition, enabling seamless collaboration on a
single document, with easily trackable changes and comments. One neat feature,
is the ability to let collaborators, selectively see portions of the document,
leaving others visible only on need-to-know.
