Zoho said Thursday that its apps–Zoho Docs, Mail, Calendar, Tasks and Planner—will be available as Open Social compatible gadgets on Facebook, Gmail and iGoogle.

The move is an effort to bring Zoho to where the action is. Zoho has increasingly lowering barriers to adoption. For instance, Zoho will take a Google or Yahoo log-in to create an account.

The gadgets can be embedded into sites or added to iGoogle or Gmail without entering credentials. On Facebook, Zoho can also be added as a gadget.

While Zoho’s move appears to be aimed at consumers, the company intends to create gadgets for its business applications such as CRM, Invoice and Meeting. Zoho’s primary focus remains business applications.

Transformational IT Service to Increase Your Competitive Advantage

Until recently, enterprises have been constrained by ‘traditional’ on-premise software applications and the environments in which they operate (the Old Way).

Consumers of traditional software typically experience long engagements to realise basic business benefits. The potential to competitively differentiate by taking advantage of new technology is often unrealised: excessive time and money is too often spent on analysing needs, provisioning hardware, upgrading, or simply supporting and maintaining your legacy hardware and software systems.

Cloud computing (the New Way) now offers a fundamental transformation opportunity for enterprises. By providing new ways of delivering and consuming IT services, it enables real cost savings, rapid time-to-benefit and on-going access to technology innovation.

In a survey of enterprises across the globe published in April 2010, Gartner Research found that 1 in 3 had migration projects underway from on-premise to the Cloud.
