What is the Zoho MVP program all about?
Zoho's Most Valuable Professionals, also referred to as MVPs, go the extra mile in helping out fellow users and are passionate about the ever-growing Zoho Community. They are consistently up-to-date on Zoho Product development and updates, and have an urge to be at the top of their game. Zoho MVPs are looked up to as leaders of the Community and represent the voice of the Community.
MVPs are ambassadors of Zoho Community. They demonstrate their Zoho expertise by actively engaging in the community, helping out peers with solutions, bringing in an influx of ideas, and constructive criticism.
