Zoho Vertical Apps: Seven New Industry Solutions, Implemented by ERPHUBs
Zoho has launched industry-specific apps for retail, automotive, lending, healthcare, education, real estate and restaurants. ERPHUBs helps you decide which fits, then configures, integrates, migrates and supports it.
What are Zoho's vertical apps?
Zoho's vertical apps are seven industry-specific applications announced on 23 September 2026: Zoho RetailIQ, Zoho AutoDMS, Zoho LOS, Zoho MedScribe, Zoho Campus, a real estate platform and Zoho POS for Restaurants. Unlike general-purpose Zoho apps, each is shaped around one industry's workflows. Zoho also launched Zia Chat, an AI interface, the same day.
Zoho has said it plans to extend the vertical portfolio to more industries over time. ERPHUBs tracks each launch and confirms editions, availability and pricing with Zoho before we scope a project, because several of these products were announced only days ago.
