Zoho Corporation customers now exceed one million paying subscribers worldwide, the company stated on February 25, 2026, marking its 30th anniversary. The technology company reported that it serves over 150 million users globally across its portfolio of brands including Zoho, ManageEngine, Qntrl, and TrainerCentral.
The company recorded a 32% year-on-year increase in customers during 2025, alongside a 20% rise in revenue. Moreover, the Middle East and North Africa emerged as the second fastest-growing market globally for Zoho Corporation customers, achieving 41% compound annual growth rate over the past five years.
Saudi Arabia Records Exceptional Growth Metrics
Saudi Arabia ranked among the top markets in the region, recording a compound annual growth rate exceeding 66% in customer acquisition and 50% in revenue growth since 2021. The company operates two data centers in Jeddah and Riyadh as part of an investment valued at approximately SAR 500 million in the local market.
“Being bootstrapped, private, and built entirely in-house makes Zoho an outlier among competitors,” said Sridhar Vembu, Co-founder and Chief Scientist at Zoho Corporation. “Delivering customer value has, for 30 years, been Zoho Corporation’s North Star.”
Data Sovereignty and Regulatory Compliance
The company’s Saudi entity and data centers obtained Class B certification from the Communicator Space and Technology Commission. This certification enables processing of public and confidential data for private and government entities in accordance with the National Cybersecurity Authority cybersecurity controls for cloud computing.
Consequently, Zoho formed strategic partnerships with the Ministry of Communications and Information Technology and Monsha’at to support digital upskilling, entrepreneurship, and SME enablement initiatives. The company’s enterprise-grade, locally hosted solutions support public entities driving Vision 2030 across finance, energy, industry, and national development sectors.
