Our team had a blast at Zoholics Kenya 2024 from February 29th to March 1st! The energy was electric as we were greeted with vibrant coastal dances, immersing us in Kenya’s rich culture. The event kicked off with a bang, with Mr. Zoe Ochwango and Mr. Veerakumar Natarajan leading the charge, welcoming everyone with a loud “Karibu to Zoholics Kenya 2024!”
But here’s the real excitement: AI has been all the rage since the end of 2022, right? Well, guess what? Zoho has been ahead of the game for 11 years with Zia, their practical AI solution that seamlessly integrates with your various platforms. Noteworthy achievements were shared, including a remarkable reduction in churn rates to 2.4% over six years, attributed largely to the impactful Zoho partner program driving a significant portion of business.
And let’s talk growth! The Middle East and Africa region have seen a staggering tenfold increase in just six years, with a whopping 31% growth rate, leading the charge in revenue across all regions. Can you believe it?
Now, onto the star of the show – Zoho Books being the fastest Zoho selling product. It’s been on fire, especially since teaming up with Mpesa, revolutionizing business transactions. But wait, there’s more! Mrs. Hakamba Wangwe from KRA highlighted the importance of eTIMS and taxation for national development. She then asked, “what’s the opposite of taxation?” and everyone were thrilled saying “Tax-free”.
But it’s not just about the numbers; it’s about real stories. We heard from customers like Brighter Monday, TATC, Buy Rent Kenya, & Pigia Me, who shared their journey with and without Zoho. Spoiler alert: Zoho addressed every pain point and drove their revenue growth!
Now, onto the big reveals! Zoho CRM Teamspace and Zoho Sign stole the show, promising to revolutionize internal collaboration and secure document signatures within minutes. And let’s not forget Zoho Creator, a standout. Did you know you can type a prompt in Zia and get a full project in minutes? Mind-blowing, right? Plus, over 7 million applications have been created in 17 years!
In conclusion, Zoholics Kenya 2024 provided a platform for invaluable learning and networking opportunities, leaving a lasting impression on all attendees including us, Redian Software as Zoho’s trusted authorized partner in Kenya. We extend our gratitude to Zoho Africa and Zoho Middle East & North Africa for hosting this remarkable event, eagerly anticipating the next Zoholics Kenya in 2025. Asante Zoholics Kenya 2024.
