Zoho Sprints Q3 2026 Updates: Global Board, Meetings, Related Lists

Zoho Sprints: Q3 2026 Updates

Zoho Sprints' third-quarter 2026 release focuses on simpler in-app navigation and more control over work-related activity inside the product. Highlights include Zoho Sprints as a built-in meeting provider, a Global Board for work items, and Related Lists on detail pages.

New Features

Public Forms

Public forms let people outside your organisation share feedback, concerns, or issues through a shareable URL. Each submission is added automatically to the project's backlog, ready for analysis and processing.

Zoho Sprints as a Meeting Provider

You no longer need to configure a separate meeting tool to hold online meetings with your team. Choose Zoho Sprints as the service provider and start the meeting with a single Start button.

Related Lists

Related information is now consolidated on the detail view of a module or entity, so you can consume data across modules without navigating away. A module lookup links existing data and gives two-way navigation between modules and their looked-up records. A custom function lookup brings data from external sources into your Zoho Sprints modules.

Customisable Detail View Layout

You can manage the tabs on a module's detail view, reorder them, and customise, create, and associate related lists, for a less cluttered page that is easier to read.

Zoho DAP for Faster Onboarding

Zoho DAP (Digital Adoption Platform) can now be used in your workspace to give new team members localised, contextual, in-product guidance, reducing training and onboarding time.

Layout Rules in Objectives and Key Results

Layout rules make OKR forms dynamic, so they change in real time based on what the user enters, rather than showing one static layout to everyone.

Dashboards for Custom Modules

Custom modules now have built-in dashboards, giving statistical insight into their records as charts and tables.

Global Board

The Global Board consolidates work items from across projects into one kanban board. Items sit in status-based columns, can be dragged and dropped to record progress, and can be grouped as you prefer, giving an overall view of all work items.

Enhancements

  • Log hours from the Global View. Record time without leaving the Global View.
  • Custom colours. Colour-code Status, Priority, Tags, and Release Stages with colours of your choice.
  • Epics in global search. Find epics by name, number, or tag name from Global Search, and in Advanced Search.
  • Status timelines for risks and opportunities. See exactly how long each spends in a status, to spot bottlenecks and learn from them.
  • Stage timelines for releases. Track how long a release spends in each stage before going live.
  • Run and rerun tests. Create new test runs from projects, test suites, or existing test runs, and rerun an existing run for the next testing cycle.
  • Filters in the velocity report. Narrow the report with Quick or Custom filters.
  • Grid view for timesheets. See time log entries in rows and columns in the Global View.
