What
The Alumni at Zoho Say
"Since the day I joined ZU I haven't looked back. It's been thirteen years and it has given me an amazing opportunity to learn while I was not sure of moving forward to a college degree. I take care of an entire product now and I am glad that I found the motivation here."
- Saran Babu
Chennai, Class of 2005
"Not all parents will allow you to do stuff that nobody else has tried before and it was extremely difficult to convince my parents to say yes for this unusual path. It's been 12 years now. I had started my career as a helpdesk engineer, and today, I am a successful evangelist. Zoho has given me a wealth of experience that would have otherwise been just a dream to me. Don't be afraid to start over for a second opportunity to build what you truly want! Jai Zoho!"
- Suresh Bagavathy

"There is something motivational and special about this environment. Zoho University enhanced my knowledge, abilities, skills, and boosted my confidence to interact with the experts. I take pride in calling myself a product of Zoho University. I am a Product Manager at Zoho actually managing many graduates from engineering colleges. Swell!"
- Parthiban Paramasivam
Chennai, Class of 2008
"Stopped from continuing education at 18 because of a financial crisis in the family, I was searching for an opportunity where I could earn while still learning. I was doing small jobs after quitting my studies, when I heard of Zoho University. From a young boy supporting my family with my small income to "Member - Technical Staff" at Zoho Corp today, it has been one amazing ride!"
- Ganesha Moorthy
Tenkasi, Class of 2015
"Zoho University has taught me a lot by way of practical application. I had a question when I joined in Zoho University 'Can a EEE student be able to learn software easily?', but our university proved that anybody with the drive to learn can shine. And this makes me say, with pride, that I am a software developer today at Zoho Corp."
- Manimaran J
Tenkasi, Class of 2015
"While entering, the very first day, I had my fears. Did not know English. Not a single word. Our teacher told us that English was only a language, he asked us to find the meaning of 5 new words daily and write a sentence. Over time, I have improved using that simple habit, and now, I can confidently read, write, and speak the language. Thank you, Zoho University!"
- Banumathi K
Chennai, Class of 2016
"Zoho University served as the platform for me to interact, learn, and become confident in communicating with others. Being a commerce student I couldn't have had a better opportunity to land in Information Technology, which was my dream. It gave me hope that, no matter what technology I worked on I could learn it and no matter what role I was given I could undertake it."
- Suriya Vijayaraghavan
Chennai, Class of 2016
"I didn't have any idea about Zoho University during my diploma. I did the exam well and got selected at the interview. Whoa! Looking back, I realise now that it was perhaps the best decision of my life. Zoho University has been a turning point in my life."
