Reviews: What People Think About Zoho Writer - Document Editor

Rating: 3/5

I’m on a paid account. The service concept is similar to Google’s Docs but doesn’t work as well. In the app: documents can only be viewed in icon view. C’mon, 1984 is long gone. Where are the lists views? Sort by name, date, type, etc. Search function searches only file names, not file contents. Cannot save files into a new Folder. Cannot delete files. Cannot share files into another Zoho app, eg: Projects Typeface changes randomly after a server error. Cannot tell which changes have been saved and which one not saved since last auto-save. I experience constant “connection interrupted” and “server errors”. Each forces a page reload which dumps all changes since the last auto-save. Very annoying. (Is this me, my China connection, or Zoho’s servers?) Update, October 2018 Zoho Customer service is responsive; they try hard to solve Customer complaints. My “connection interrupted”issues persist. This must be caused by my internet connection; the Service provider is called _Great Wall_ after all.

**UPDATED REVIEW I’m updating this review from 3-4 stars because I was able to retrieve my documents from the second time they were deleted with the help of zoho support. The first time i lost my documents, I got a new phone and lost the documents in the transfer since I did not have an account. I’m relieved I was able to retrieve at least some very important documents! ~~~~~ First review: I was really enjoying using this writer tool (via app.) You can add a lock to your documents which is great. Documents and revisions automatically save. The app does not require you to have an account in order to start writing but BEWARE your files will disappear (I’m unsure if they are able to be retrieved). I am thinking it happened when I recently turned my phone off and back on. I had months of some really important writing - all gone. This is a writer’s nightmare. If anyone knows how I might retrieve these documents please reach out! Again, I did not have an account as the app DOES NOT require it - maybe that needs to change so this doesn’t continue to happen.

My friend and I use Zoho to share our collaborative stories with each other. The website works well enough, and we have a great time editing with each other live. The app on the other hand offers none of the convenience of the site. Typing lags so far behind what you are writing, you might as well be carving it into a stone tablet. And heaven forbid you want to copy and paste more than one word into it. The thing bogs down to near crashing with as few as 20 words selected to be pasted. We have had more than a few issues where it will randomly place our curser somewhere else in the document while we are using the app, and we will lose random sentence fragments pages away from where we had been working. If they even get written down at all. And don’t you dare even think about any kind of formatting while on the app, it won’t translate to the site version. You won’t get any of the double space periods your phone placed in there either. Don’t forget about the weird random extra spaces between words that you get as well. That’s if it doesn’t just not save huge chunks of text at random. We still use the site, and will keep using the site, but we cannot safely use the app and you cannot either. At least not until an acceptable update makes it useable.
