  236.  <p>Zoho Brings Database & Reporting Online</p>
  237. <p>Zoho DB Features Online Database along with Visual Data Analytics</p>
  238. <p>PLEASANTON, Calif. -- October 4, 2007 -- Bringing the power of traditional<br />
  239. databases to people who work online, Zoho today announced Zoho DB.<br />
  240. Available at (<a href="http://db.zoho.com/" title="http://db.zoho.com/">http://db.zoho.com/</a>), Zoho DB is an online database and<br />
  241. reporting application that blends database functionalities with visual data<br />
  242. analysis. For a video tour of Zoho DB, please visit<br />
  243. (<a href="http://www.viddler.com/raju/videos/12/" title="http://www.viddler.com/raju/videos/12/">http://www.viddler.com/raju/videos/12/</a>).</p>
  244. <p>"With Zoho DB, we want to simplify data analysis based on your data in a<br />
  245. database. This is data analytics for the rest of us," said Raju Vegesna,<br />
  246. Zoho evangelist. "We spent quite a bit of time and effort making a highly<br />
  247. functional, complex database and reporting application that's online and<br />
  248. simple to use. What excites me even further is that it brings other<br />
  249. integration possibilities with existing Zoho apps to the table."</p>
  250. <p>On the last point, Zoho DB differentiates from Zoho Creator largely in its<br />
  251. backend flexibility and its data visualization capabilities. Zoho Creator<br />
  252. gives users tremendous flexibility in designing the user interface,<br />
  253. prompting users to describe it as the Web equivalent of Microsoft Access<br />
  254. combined with Visual Basic. Zoho DB offers similar flexibility in its<br />
  255. ability to manipulate and analyze the backend data.</p>
  256. <p>Zoho DB Details</p>
  257. <p>Zoho DB lets users easily create, share, and collaborate on database<br />
  258. applications and reports. Highlights of Zoho DB include:</p>
  259. <p>* Familiar spreadsheet-like user interface for simple data manipulation and<br />
  260. navigation;</p>
  261. <p>* Support for data import/export from a variety of spreadsheet formats,<br />
  262. including .xls, .csv, and .tsv files;</p>
  263. <p>* Drag and drop-based reporting and visual analysis, with support for<br />
  264. creating charts, pivot tables, summary views, and table views;</p>
  265. <p>* Full-fledged SQL (Structured Query Language)-based querying of databases<br />
  266. for powerful and flexible reporting;</p>
  267. <p>* Understanding of SQL queries/dialects from multiple databases -- Oracle,<br />
  268. SQL Server, DB2, Sybase, MySQL, PostgreSQL, Informix, and ANSI SQL;</p>
  269. <p>* Databases, tables, and views can be shared in read-only or read-write<br />
  270. modes for collaborative development and analysis;</p>
  271. <p>* Professional looking reports can be created and embedded into a Website<br />
  272. with simple copy/paste of code; and</p>
  273. <p>* Highly scalable database with access from anywhere, anytime.</p>
  274. <p>Vegesna continued, "Zoho DB can be adopted by a wide range of users who are<br />
  275. looking for an easy to use, flexible, secure, and scalable Web-based<br />
  276. database and reporting application. Spreadsheet users, desktop database<br />
  277. users, relational database users, and reporting/analytics tool users are<br />
  278. among those who will feel right at home with Zoho DB."</p>
  279. <p>Debut of Zoho DB</p>
  280. <p>Initial responses to Zoho DB have cited the application's ease of use as<br />
  281. well as its industry-first status in the competitive arena of online<br />
  282. applications.</p>
  283. <p>Zoho DB Launched - Beats Google, Microsoft to Online Database</p>
  284. <p>"Zoho is making a habit of one-upping their competition..."</p>

  288. <p>Zoho Adds Database to Online Suite</p>
  289. <p>"It's an impressive application, full of the features that users of<br />
  290. databases like Access are accustomed to. ...DB can be used to create<br />
  291. powerful applications that can then be embedded in Web sites for real-time<br />
  292. data collection or display. It's the kind of thing you just cannot do with<br />
  293. an offline app." Rafe Needleman,<br />
  294. (<a href="http://www.webware.com/8301-1_109-9790617-2.html" title="http://www.webware.com/8301-1_109-9790617-2.html">http://www.webware.com/8301-1_109-9790617-2.html</a> )CNet</p>
  295. <p>Zoho DB Launches, Beats Google Docs to the Punch</p>
  296. <p>"When the big G creates a product that competes with yours...how do you<br />
  297. compete? You either a) whimper in the corner and give up, b) try to sell<br />
  298. and cash in quickly or c) try to always be one step ahead. Zoho has been<br />
  299. taking the third route with their online office suite and they've been<br />
  300. doing quite well, with their products always being on a par with or better<br />
  301. than Google's applications. ... Zoho is still going strong, and with 13<br />
  302. online applications under its belt they clearly show that they're ready to<br />
  303. fight Google's office applications head on."</p>
  304. <p>Stan Schroeder, (<a href="http://mashable.com/2007/10/03/zoho-db" title="http://mashable.com/2007/10/03/zoho-db">http://mashable.com/2007/10/03/zoho-db</a>) Mashable</p>
  305. <p>It's a Database. It's a Spreadsheet. It's Zoho DB.</p>
  306. <p>"Zoho is adding another weapon to its arsenal today. ... There's a lot of<br />
  307. functionality built into Zoho DB, much more than I can explain..."</p>

  312. <p>"The easiest way to describe Zoho DB is that it's an online version of<br />
  313. Microsoft Access with more features. I played with the tool for a bit<br />
  314. yesterday and found it to be robust and responsive."</p>
