# Zoho Mail

> Connect DialNexa calls to Zoho Mail for lead, contact, company, deal, activity, task, or account-owner alert workflows.

Zoho Mail is a secure and ad-free email hosting platform with collaboration tools, calendar integration, and extensive administrative controls.

<Note>
  Use Zoho Mail with DialNexa when a buyer, customer, partner, or account contact gives information that should change pipeline, ownership, qualification, or follow-up.
</Note>

## Where Zoho Mail fits in a DialNexa workflow

Zoho Mail should receive DialNexa output when the conversation affects a lead, contact, company, deal, activity, task, or account-owner alert. The handoff should explain what the caller asked for, what DialNexa learned, which record or object is affected, and who owns the next step.
