#2I've been using Zoho's email for a few years now (only because they used to provide free custom domain email - brilliant growth tactic!). The service itself works perfectly and integrates well with Apple Mail (albeit they changed the server configurations over the years two times if I recall correctly). Though their web client leaves some to be desired, it made very good progress and I believe it would be comparable to Gmail in the foreseeable future. As for their other services, I have not tried them but I would guess that copying Google Workspace is the general theme of development. Bigger picture I think it's great Google Workspace and Office 365 will have real competition, especially on the pricing front, that is outside the US (which means it is influenced by different interests and less likely to join the monopoly) and it will benefit everyone involved.

#3AFAIK they’re the only decent email provider that offers a free account that allows a custom domain.
I use the $1/month mail lite plan. It’s nice to have an option that doesn’t cost as much as Microsoft and Google for people that want email on a custom domain, but don’t need all the cruft (drive, apps, etc).

India has no other billion dollar product companies? Doesn’t Tata sell cars?

I think he means software product company. Anyhow, regardless of that his statement is inaccurate because Zoho IS NOT an Indian company. Majority of its employees are in India (and the founder is Indian) but that's true for a lot of other international companies as well, that doesn't make them Indian.

Yandex mail is better and it allows custom domain for free.

I moved off Zoho when they dropped support for 'basic' email features like POP and IMAP access, which forces you to use their web or mobile app.
I need unified inbox otherwise I will forget to check it.

I'm very happy with fastmail on my custom domain. They even have tools for managing your dns records.

#10One more clear example that you don't need to be in SF to build a venture-scale SaaS
