The next biggest hurdle for Zoho is to integrate the apps together and less confuse the end users..

I do agree with you to a certain extent. Zoho is launching new products but is not focusing on the usability/sexiness of the app. Infact, the funny thing is that their login screen is a pure replica of Google’s.

I hope they stop building new products and instead focus on integrating their apps.

That sounds good, but Zoho is not doing well with integration. For example, using Zoho Projects you are not allowed to import documents from Zoho Sheets or Zoho Writer.

I have also complaints about the way Zoho “organize” files, so I have my doubts about Zoho new products… I have posted my opinion about Zoho Docs and Google Docs in my blog: http://www.designvsart.com/blog/

” distribution of apps “: For every startups, Distribution is the key.

Distribution Fact: Microsoft Tied up with IBM to distribute DOS that caused world wide Explosion of MS-DOS.

Google: tied up with Yahoo to distribute thier search tech which eventually people start using google.com main domain.

Youtube: Widgetization which cause world wide explosion.

Scribd.com: Again Widgetization and FaceBook Apps again leader in online Doc’s.

……and many other.

For any product, Distribution has very high level of priority for Explosion and Dissemination.
