Remote API Overview

The Remote API integration approach brings in the best of both the worlds for partners, enterprises & medium sized businesses - collaborative editing capabilities of an online application while at the same time having the choice of storing data in their own servers. Once the users are done with their edits & press save, the documents are automatically stored in partners document repository. Zoho doesn't keep a copy of them and the partners/enterprises always keep control of their document.

As Zoho applications are served from the cloud, partners don't need any installations on desktops to create/view/edit documents. Zoho API Program - Overview.

"The Zoho wiki platform has been incredibly useful to my small business. I have used it for organising an ad-hoc common-interest group, for organising the development of events and publications, and as the basis of a customer-support web site (among other things). Maintaining the wiki-based web site is great because I can edit and extend it from wherever I am (with the aid of collaborators if I want) and it is really easy to split it into public and private sections.

My next project will probably be to migrate all my back-office functions onto a private wiki so that I can employ home-based part-time support staff as the business grows.
