What is Zoho Mail?
Zoho Mail is a secure email service launched by the multinational technology firm Zoho Corporation, a Chennai-based software services company which was co-founded by Sridhar Vembu and Tony Tomas in 1996.
With nearly three decades in the technology and software business, the company focuses on creating products and solutions which help other business solve their problems, according to the official website.
The website data shows that the firm has more than 18,000 employees around the world, with close to 130 million users. The company celebrated 15 years of Zoho Mail in 2023, as the email service has helped its users with ‘all-rounded communication and email management of any organisation’ over the years.
Zoho's Expansion
Zoho Corp. recently launched its messaging application named ‘Arattai’, which seeks to capture the Indian market, which is currently dominated by Meta-owned WhatsApp.
Amid the company's expansion plans, Zoho co-founder Sridhar Vembu confirmed that Arattai will soon be getting the end-to-end encryption feature for chat messages. However, as of now, the messaging application only offers end-to-end encryption for calls but not for text messages.
“We are actually turning off that cloud storage in Arattai to offer end-to-end encrypted chat. That is in testing right now. We were going to roll it out in November, and we have accelerated the schedule now,” Mint reported earlier, citing Sridhar Vembu's post on X.
The application is a homegrown app which has been positioned in the Indian market as the WhatsApp killer, according to the earlier reports. Zoho Corp. has a history of competing with global tech giants like Microsoft, Salesforce, and Google through products such as Zoho Workspace, Zoho Mail, and Zoho CRM.
