Review method: I tested this product by attempting to import and export some sample documents in OpenDocument format.

Notes: Imported a .odt document (orginally created with OpenOffice.org 2) into Zoho Writer. The imported document displayed with some minor formatting errors but was otherwise successfully imported and could be edited. Exported a document created in Zoho Writer to .odt format.

Zoho Sheet does not yet support import or export of OpenDocument .ods files. It offers "OpenOffice.org Calc" as an import choice, which turns out to be .sxc. When I attempted to import a .ods file, I received the message "OpenDocument format coming soon".

Zoho Show offers to import "OpenOffice.org (.sxi) files". A cursory look around the website did not indicate whether support for import or export of .odp files was planned.
