As a small or medium-sized business, that is a price too grave to bear. It also offers some insights into one of the reasons why startups fail, because, while big companies can experience a loss that high and escape unscathed or mildly scathed, its effect on SMBs can pummel the revenue.
The interesting thing about that figure is that communication is usually taken to be trivial among many teams. It’s difficult to naturally connect unreplied emails, ignored Slack messages, and missed meetings to such a whopping amount of money, but there it is as a report from Holmes.

What is Zoho Cliq?

Zoho Cliq is a software platform that removes the complication that is usually attached to team-based communication. It makes it easy for your team to connect, participate in meaningful conversations, and get access to the resources they need to deliver on their work and stay productive. This app will come in handy particularly for your team if they work remotely; excellent for stoking up that company culture that is often missing in remote settings.

This team communication management platform has all the elements you need for your team to work together wherever they might be in the world. Rather than have siloed caucuses that can cause a drop in your company’s overall productivity level and collaboration, Zoho Cliq is the needed system through which you can turn your team into a single clique with unified goals and ambitions. When there are no grey areas, you leave no room for assumptions or confusion.

Features and Functions of Zoho Cliq

You have been shown what Zoho Cliq can do for your business and it is expected that you ask how these lofty claims can be achieved or doubt if there is indeed a tool that not only serves as a portal to share important messages but also doubles as a tool to engage your team. Conscious business owners know that the latter is as important because it sits at the core of motivating your team.

 
Logically, only a team that is motivated will be able to communicate appropriately. It is the soul that needs to be injected into your team to keep the engines grinding. Here are the ways Zoho Cliq checks the boxes.

Organized Team Collaboration

Collaboration is the fuel that drives team productivity, which in turn positively impacts the figures you turn in at the end of the month or year. But, effective collaboration doesn’t just happen. It needs some propellers.

Zoho Cliq is an all-in-one platform that helps your team collaborate effectively. Aside from in-app chats, you can also make video and audio calls using this platform, while sharing your screen. That way, you don’t need to switch between Zoom and Slack when a video-required discussion is needed. You can do all within one platform.

Furthermore, through Zoho Cliq’s channels, you can streamline discussions among your team members using based on asynchronous features. These channels are especially great for product, engineering, and design teams as they work on sprints.

The human mind is infallible, and you or your team members are prone to forgetting about the much-needed follow-up to propel others to fulfill their end of the bargain. Not anymore. As you round off agreements or discussions, you can set reminders for a particular day and time, using Zoho Cliq. At the appointed time, the reminder will be automatically sent to the tagged parties. — to you, another member of the team, or within the conversation.

Zoho’s proprietary AI Assistant, Zia, also helps you with calendar synchronization, thus saving you the hours you would have spent scheduling and planning events. Zia will not only sync your calendar, it’ll also notify all the parties involved and send reminders when appropriate.

Remote Work Features

Zoho Cliq was created with the typical challenges of fully-remote teams in mind. When operating a fully-remote company, you need the right system to monitor each worker and ensure they stay at their most productive. Zoho Cliq helps you do this with ease.


Firstly, there’s an in-app feature that allows each team member to sign in for the day. That way, you can curb lateness and lethargy. Also, the look-in feature allows you to swoop in intermittently to see which team members are currently at work, those that are away, those that are in a meeting, and those that have a scheduled meeting.


Using the Remote Work dashboard, you can track each team member’s work hours, which will in turn help you make informed decisions about how to better manage the team in line with your goals.

 
Other amazing features that support a healthy work culture include the in-app coffee breaks, which allow team members to unplug and unwind for some minutes, to maintain a clear mind and increased motivation to work.

Discoverability and Security

It does sound somewhat paradoxical that something should be made discoverable yet tucked away securely at the same time. It all boils down to context and scenarios anyway, and Zoho Cliq presents you with the befitting system for each scenario.

 
When it comes to security, the software has one of the highest levels of security networks. Zoho Cliq employs multiple layers of security to store your data in the cloud. These layers are very robust and they are crafted with the latest security technology. This means it becomes extremely difficult for your data to be intercepted by unwanted agents as it is passed over the internet.


Another benefit of using cloud storage aside from the security is the fact that it allows you to store a large amount of data without burdening the storage space of your devices. Unlike other platforms that gatekeep this benefit, Zoho Cliq gives you the opportunity to explore it to the fullest. With access to unlimited storage, you can simply drag and drop the files you need and you can retrieve them any day you want to.


When it comes to retrieving files and messages, this is another point where productivity drops. Zoho Cliq helps you block these leakages by letting you find your messages and files using advanced search features that rely on the attributes and content of the stored item and not just the name.

Automation and Workflows

The long and short of boosting your team’s overall productivity relies on how well you can build automated workflows to manage repetitive tasks. Zoho Cliq offers you a wide range of options, from slash commands, to bots, to message actions, to forms and widgets, to schedulers.

With the Slash Command feature, you can perform tasks by typing a forward slash, followed by the command you want executed. For example: “/createanewtrelloboard”.

Taza and Zia are the two bots to help your team boost its productivity. You can automate these two bots to help you perform mundane and time-consuming routine tasks like fetching data, scheduling and planning meetings, sending reminders, or sending weekly reports.

Zoho Cliq also offers additional message actions aside from the basic “reply, copy, paste”. You can add a message to a task, note, ticket, or as a streams post in Zoho Mail. You can also create schedulers to reduce repetitive tasks like announcements, updates, and general messages.

Integrations

While Zoho Cliq leaves no stone unturned when it comes to communication management, there are other facets of your business that will require other tools to manage. The fact that you are combining multiple tools however doesn’t mean you have to keep shifting between several open apps on your desktop or mobile.

Zoho Cliq ensures that you can connect these different tools and make them work as one. This way, you can have the harmonized power of these tools without having to leave to Zoho Cliq. In addition to this, these integrations provide a foundation on which your automation protocols are built.

These integrations can be implemented with other apps in the Zoho stack to give you a powerful pack of awesome tools that breathes as one. An instance is connecting your Zoho Inventory to Zoho Cliq which allows you to initiate conversations and stay up-to-date on your inventory level. You can also integrate with Zoho CRM to facilitate collaboration with your sales team.

That is not all; it gets better. You can also integrate with other third-party apps that catch your preference such as Mailchimp and Dropbox. With this, you are not restricted but free to explore even more value for your team and business.

Why You Should Choose Zoho Cliq For Your Business

Sometimes, good features are not sufficient when it comes to choosing a tool for your organization. In your quest to set your team up for success and optimum performance, you will need to consider several factors. You need to ascertain whether the tool of choice is complementary to the nature and status of your business. Each business is different, and while there are also varying tools trying to solve similar problems, the approach is often different from one platform to the other.

Given the scenario above, it is important to examine why Zoho Cliq might just be the tool of your dreams when it comes to managing communication in your team.

Mobile Accessibility

The value of information lies in how current it is. Regardless of how valuable a piece of information is, once it’s stale, such value is greatly reduced if not totally lost. In essence, when it comes to communication, delays could be costly when they are not acted upon promptly.
This is why having your communication management tool on your mobile devices is a big plus. With this, it means you and your team can always attend to important issues anywhere you might be. This will prevent you from losing time-bound opportunities. Zoho Cliq is available on Playstore and App Store where you can easily download and take your tool anywhere you go with you.

User-friendliness

Having a great tool is less important than knowing how to use it. While a tool might come loaded with all the coolest features in the world, it is only as effective as what the user does with it. Most times, it is not the user’s fault, but the fact that some products enjoy making simple things look complex.
Knowing business owners don’t have the luxury of time to sit down to consume manuals, Zoho Cliq has made the use of the software very simple and intuitive. With this kind of interface, you can easily find your way around and get to implementing those features you love. This will save you the time you can dedicate to other important items on your list.

Support

As it is with trying anything new, there are bound to be some hiccups along the way. While Zoho Cliq has designed the user experience to be as simple and stressless as possible, you might want to make some inquiries about how some things work, especially how it applies specifically to your business. For this reason, Zoho Cliq has made available several channels where such issues can be resolved.

 
Options available for support on Zoho Cliq include live chats, emails, and online resources to make your journey free of any worry or hassle.

What Are The Competitors of Zoho Cliq?
