Doctoral Student Research Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Zoho for university collaboration" May 24, 2019 5.0 Pros Groups within the community approach and versatile functionalities to support co-operation in groups. Cons Hard to say. It seemed to fit quite well into, what I project as, our use cases. Devil is in the detail, though, and one detail I noticed was that in polling functionality didn't support multiple choices. Review Source HI Hesham I. Medical Educator E-Learning Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Good value for money" April 11, 2025 4.0 So far I am enjoying my experience with it. Pros It is easy to set up a course on it. I like the automaton of certificate production the most. Cons Weak analytics. Can't publish the feedback comments (only the rating is published). Doesn't support blogs creation. Review Source RE Rob E. Leader, Mgmt Consutling Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Fairly easy to setup. Not alot of options for video placement." April 8, 2018 3.0 Pros I like the integration with other Zoho Suite apps. Simple to use. Easy upload of slide show deck. Video window is a bit small and could be adjusted to allow larger size. Trying this software to evaluate the delivery of online lectures as part of an LMS. Like the ability to garner feedback on the session, but have not tried a live session yet. Cons 1\. The PPT integration seems to be only available for PC, not Mac. 2. Playback of slides seem to lose header information. 3. Hard to use the free version for larger class sizes. 4. Have not tried the distribution side of the software and need to still assess UX from students POV Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Founder & Service Manager Information Technology and Services Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Can Zoho ShowTime best suite for remote medecine business" August 14, 2019 5.0 Pros Honestly I need some extra time to truly evaluate the application before presenting to my customer Cons Can not say any cons before truly evaluating the app Reason for choosing TrainerCentral Hi,I have a client who is asking me for a remote medicine solution (secure video communications between patients and the doctor) and I wonder if Zoho ShowTime can be adapted to my client needs. Therefore, I need some extra time for presenting the application to my customer and let him evaluating it by himself. I scheduled a meeting with my customer for Friday the 16th August 2019 at 15:00 (CET) and any recommendations from Zoho Team and/or presentation of the application and its features will be very welcome.Furthermore, we do have an open source (FreeSWITCH based) cloud PBX, we provide SIP routes terminations and we would like to partnership with Zoho for completing our offers portfolio with Zoho Mail and Collaboration Applications Suite. We need your valuable support and recommendations for prioritizing our Zoho subscriptions for which Zoho products/services depending on our needs and our budget restrictions before, during and after running production.I look forward for your reply. Thank you very much for your support.

Sr Mechanical or Industrial Engineering Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Extremely professional, very willing to work" September 5, 2017 5.0 Pros It is reliable, and it complies with what I expected it to do. It has very good support Good access and presentation. It seems very powerful, although I could not spend much time and just use the mail, I always want to achieve something new to surprise or achieve things that help my business. Cons I need more information in the native language. And so I can explore better. I do not know everything I can do and achieve. On the one hand by the language and on the other by lack of time. Although I understand that there are many tools Review Source VR Verified Reviewer HR Assistant Financial Services Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Increasing Audience Engagement with Web Conferencing" October 14, 2018 4.0 Pros Zoho Showtime is the software that I use when I’m conducting training sessions to a large group of attendees, especially to new hires. It’s convenient because there’s no need to download a software application. Each Zoho session can be accessed through a browser and can have up to 200 attendees. I can easily share my audio and video, record sessions, create polls, questions, or quizzes, ask for a rating, send chat messages, share my screen, and more. It also has its own slide presentation maker. It has a mobile app that allows easy access from various gadgets. Cons A disadvantage to Zoho is that the basic features are limited. I have to sign up for a premium account to unlock the other features. Also, I can’t see my attendee/s video, so I can’t check if they could follow along. I also noticed that Zoho consumes much internal memory, so it makes both my computer and internet slow. I suggest using a computer that has a higher RAM. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Owner Information Technology and Services Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Great software" March 27, 2019 5.0 Pros The ability to record your presentations, see your past sessions, polls, pre-upload your presentations before live presenting. Integrates well with their CRM. Cons I haven't used it enough to find any issues to date. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Senior Human Resources Manager Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Good Conferencing Tool" March 11, 2018 4.0 The free version is great and the paid versions provide good value. Pros Zoho Showtime is a good tool for conferencing, training, and presenting. I like how Zoho gives you the ability to upload PowerPoint files or use Zoho Show files to use directly in the conference. My favorite part, though, is that Zoho provides a free version that surprisingly is very feature-rich.

March 4, 2018 5.0 My clients enjoy using it - they told me it was easy to use. Pros Easy to load presentations and launch webinar. I like that the audience can easily provide feedback. Cons It is great that we can now record. Just have to watch the size limit, but otherwise, this is good. Review Source KR Kiara R. Services Manager Financial Services Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Does what I need it to!" September 22, 2020 5.0 Pros I like the 3 different options of on demand, live broadcast, and the face to face classroom setup. Cons I didn't like how you couldn't organize the on demand lessons. You have the ability to order the content within the session but not the sessions themselves. Alternatives considered [Lessonly](https://www.capterra.com/p/140809/Lessonly/) Reason for choosing TrainerCentral We already have Zoho CRM and other services. Review Source JP Jacob P. CEO Retail Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Great Product and Great Customer Service" September 16, 2018 5.0 Zoho's customer support when I have contacted them has been nothing but fabulous. They are great and know how to explain the product to you over email support without any misunderstanding. Pros I love the entire interface of the product including the features which some come in handy when I really need them. I love the fact I have to have my customers register for the webinar so I can not only track which customers are attending but in fact to restrict it so everyone has a chance join at least 1-2 webinars. Cons I wish It would work a little better with the built in microphone in my laptop but that is the only thing Review Source JB Juan B. director Human Resources Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "My experience first two weeks" June 20, 2020 4.0 I need still to solve and evaluate a couple of important issues for my business, to see if I can adapt it to Zoho One or not, I do not know yet. I trY with excellent support of the master-franchise Pros Easy to manage and your support The Remote calls menu and options Cons Some functions like polls are a bit too fix structured so far I am checking if it´s possible to organise to breaking rooms in Remote calls where participate more than 15 persons in smaller sessions of 3-5 persons Reason for choosing TrainerCentral Because of you marter franchise, CROMLEC Review Source IT Iris T. Assistant Manager Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Modern meetings" March 17, 2018 5.0 For the moment, nothing has happened to me or I have not experienced something that I do not like. Zoho always adapts to the user's needs. Pros In this information age, this tool is a good communication option. Organize your meetings and / or present new projects, it is excellent for conferences. You have many elements to achieve your business objectives. Review Source YB Yash B.

Cons No negative feedback at this time ...haven't really used it a lot. Review Source FH Faith H. Principal Education Management Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Good for online teaching" August 18, 2018 4.0 Easy to use, cost less. Pros free, user friendly, sound quality is good in general. Cons sometimes I heard an Eco sound, no hands up feature Review Source Dr Syed H. Operations Manager cum Medical Officer Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "It's ShowTime" August 9, 2021 5.0 Marvelous. Awesomely beautifully designed and works flawlessly. Pros The screen sharing and instant messaging is the best asset of this software. No lags, no bugs, this is the utmost necessary software for any industry having their client and team overseas. Cons The pricing is on a higher side. If any compensation is given or any offer discount then it is good. Reason for choosing TrainerCentral Because of my friend who told me about it and then I also became fan of it and my company is enjoying the showtime and its functions. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer General Manager Management Consulting Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Has everything you need at a fraction of the cost of other platforms" May 19, 2023 4.0 If you have a limited budget and are comfortable waiting for some features to be added later on,by all means go for it! Pros TrainerCentral, in typical Zoho fashion, is an easy to use and inexpensive online training platform. We used it for external trainings including payment processing and automatic grading. Given the price of competitors it really is a steal for the price. Cons It’s a fairly new platform so the feature set is not fully developed. Also for German companies the payment processors are limited. I would appreciate in-app note-taking for participants like is the case with LinkedIn learning.

This does not allow me (due to confidentiality in relation to my emails) to delegate access to the ShowTime account to a member of my staff for management. I have to add an additional user (not free) Alternatives considered [Microsoft Teams](https://www.capterra.com/p/168668/Microsoft-Teams/)[Zoom Events and Webinars](https://www.capterra.com/p/157062/Zoom-Video-Webinar/) Reason for choosing TrainerCentral It best meets my training center needs Switched from [Microsoft Teams](https://www.capterra.com/p/168668/Microsoft-Teams/) This solution is much better for sessions between members of the same team (company) Review Source ZK Zafer K.

Cons Zoho ShowTime could have a more user-friendly interface for chatting. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Career Coach Professional Training & Coaching Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Zoho ShowTime is awesome!" July 22, 2020 5.0 From the time I decided to use it, it took just minutes to actually setup the session, register users, promote my session, conduct my session, design & give certificates and review session analytics. ST is really awesome and simple for an independent trainer like me to setup my training org. Pros Just above everything from session setup, setting up registration, taking in and approving registration, conducting the session, review and issue certificates - everything is cool and easy. Cons Questions tab is really useful, especially to project questions and answer. But having users to separately use that instead of one chat option is a bit confusing initially. Switched from [Zoom Workplace](https://www.capterra.com/p/144037/Zoom-Video-Conferencing/) Pricing and current perception in market about security and being of Chinese origin (my user base is jittery about that) Review Source Emin N. Customer Relations and Sales Assistant Research Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Useful software for middle-sized business or research companies" December 25, 2019 4.0 Despite, Zoho Showtime is not as popular as Microsoft PowerPoint or other presentation tools, during my Sales Assistant job, I used this software as other tools of Zoho. Especially, Chinese customers had positive feedbacks on working through this software, since they had opportunities to follow a .new series of presentations via mobile phones Pros 1) Easy to install and learn to use different features 2) The capacity of Zoho attendants is really large to share a presentation and multimedia products 3) Data security is at a high level when you use this software and you are not annoyed by undesirable links and errors. Cons 1) Most of the features and facilities of the software are only possible to use after a paid subscription 2) Sometimes the software has problems to connect the internet. It might be different in regard to browsers like Safari, Chrome or Internet Explorer 3) In editing procedures of presentation, the software can open new windows unexpectedly.
