All about 2017: A great year for the Zoho Finance Suite.

We have so much to say about 2017 — it was a year of opportunities. In the past 12 months, we have had 3 new products, 3 major editions, countless new features, and infinite love from our customers. As the year comes to an end, here are some of our major accomplishments of 2017:

8 apps strong and still growing.

Back in 2007, we started our journey into the Finance domain with Zoho Invoice. It has been 10 years and now our Zoho Finance Suite contains 7 individual products and one bundle. What’s more interesting is that 3 of them have been launched just this year:

Check out Zoho Checkout!

Early this year, we launched Zoho Checkout, a simple solution for one-time and recurring online payments. Zoho Checkout helps users create customized payment pages and get paid online on time. It also comes with multiple payment gateway integrations like Stripe, WePay, and Razorpay.

Zoho Finance Plus: Our most comprehensive bundle of finance solutions.

Zoho Finance Plus, our all-in-one finance application, helps users manage all their back-office operations in a single place. Between sending out invoices, generating expense reports, streamlining inventory, and managing recurring payments, Zoho Finance Plus offers users an end-to-end finance solution.

Zoho GST: An exclusive GST filing solution.

The year 2017 came to a close with Zoho GST, an online GST filing solution for India’s unified Goods and Services Tax. Zoho GST has been specifically crafted to help Indian customers file their GST returns in three simple steps: import, push, and file. With Zoho GST, we’ve made sure the entire process of filing GST returns is simple and completely compliant with the new tax requirements.

The year of regional editions.

For the past couple of years, the Zoho Finance Suite has been constantly adapting to the tax regimes of different countries. Our products are already compliant with sales tax in the US, VAT in the UK, and the GST in Australia and Canada. In 2017 we released the GST-ready Indian edition, VAT-ready UAE edition, and VAT-ready Saudi Arabian edition, making us the trusted tax expert across the globe.
