Exporting data is now easier and more flexible: discover the new options in Zoho CRM
Zoho CRM introduces improvements to the Export feature, giving you more control and simplicity when working with your data.
What’s new in exports:
- XLSX format: In addition to the classic CSV, you can now export in XLSX, making it easier to analyze data directly in Excel. While CSV supports up to 200,000 records, the new format allows you to export up to 50,000 with greater compatibility for spreadsheet users.

- Field selection: If you don’t need certain data, such as the record ID, you can now easily exclude them when generating the file. This results in a cleaner output tailored to what you actually want to share or analyze.

- CSV character set: When exporting in CSV, you can choose the character set to ensure all information — including names or texts in other languages — is properly encoded.

- Direct export: No need to go to Settings → Data Administration. Now you can export from the same module, in a pop-up window that lets you choose format and options without interrupting your workflow.

- Selected records: From list view, you can select up to 500 specific records and export them immediately. Ideal for working with filters or specific customer segments without exporting the entire module.

These improvements make information management faster, more practical, and tailored to your business needs.

Say goodbye to spam in your forms with the arrival of reCAPTCHA v3 in Zoho Forms
Unlike traditional CAPTCHAs, reCAPTCHA v3 works invisibly, with no checkboxes or challenges that interrupt the user.
- It analyzes the behavior of the person filling out the form and assigns a score between 0.0 and 1.0.
- A score close to 1.0 suggests it’s likely a human; closer to 0.0, likely a bot.
- You define the minimum acceptable threshold (e.g., 0.5) and decide what to do with submissions that don’t meet it.
Control options for suspicious submissions:
- Block the response and show a custom error message.
- Add a second verification using Zoho Forms’ built-in CAPTCHA.

Key benefits:
- Fewer spam entries without friction for real users.
- Greater control by defining your own security criteria.
- Smoother and more professional form experience.
With this update, you get an ideal balance between protection and usability, adjusting the security level according to the volume and sensitivity of your forms.
