Major Updates to Zoho Books, Zoho Inventory, and Zoho Practice Further Strengthen the Finance and Operations Platform
Zoho Corporation, a global technology company, today announced the US edition of Zoho Payroll,an end-to-end solution that streamlines payroll management, ensures compliance, automates tax payments and filing, and eliminates operational silos between departments handling employee data, financial records, and payment processes.
“Few existing finance solutions offer seamless interoperability, requiring customers to install multiple pieces of software and contend with organizational silos,” Raju Vegesna, Chief Evangelist at Zoho.
The launch is accompanied by advancements to Zoho’s existing suite of finance solutions: Zoho Books, Zoho Inventory, and Zoho Practice. Together with Payroll, these apps form the core of Zoho’s finance and operations platform—offering an interconnected, one-stop solution for managing an organization’s financial and operational processes.
Zoho’s Finance Apps
“Few existing finance solutions offer seamless interoperability, requiring customers to install multiple pieces of software and contend with organizational silos,” says Raju Vegesna, Chief Evangelist at Zoho. “Zoho Payroll addresses the struggles our customers were facing in finding a system to keep up with endless revisions to tax codes, maintain accuracy and compliance across departments, and generate financial reports. The growth of our array of finance apps is driven by our customers, and that will never change.”
Zoho’s Payroll addresses a need in the market for a full-featured and holistic product that seamlessly connects with other relevant systems. According to Deloitte’s Global Payroll Benchmarking Survey, while 73% of organizations outsource aspects of their payroll process, they still identify key areas for improvement such as compliance, self-service, and technology integration. Meanwhile, smaller businesses have limited options and often rely on manually intensive and error-prone solutions.
