PLEASANTON, CA, September 03, 2011 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Helping people work online, Zoho today announced the 15th anniversary of ZOHO Corp. The announcement marks the success of the long-term vision and culture that underpin ZOHO Corp., helping to create a company that was built to last. As the company prepares for its next 15 years, it is focusing on expanding various aspects including mobile focus and application integration as well as improving the overall user experience of its applications.

"We are deeply grateful to our customers, partners, employees and the rest of the ZOHO ecosystem for helping us reach our 15-year anniversary," said Sridhar Vembu, CEO of ZOHO Corp. "Our success can also be attributed to our long-term approach to business. As a company founder, I have no interest in exit or liquidity. I'm in business to run a business, not to run away from it. As a result, ZOHO Corp. has survived several economic bubbles and busts, consistently turning a profit, adding new users and emerging as a market leader—something we intend to do for several years ahead."
