Zoho Cliq on your desktop, inside Franz
Run Zoho Cliq as a desktop app on Mac, Windows, and Linux, with multiple accounts and real notifications, all in one Franz window.
- macOS
- Windows

Zoho Cliq is the team messenger inside the wider Zoho suite, which is exactly why people often have more than one account in play: a company that runs its work on Zoho, a side project on its own organisation, perhaps a client whose Cliq you have been invited into. Keeping each one in a separate browser tab quickly turns into a window-hunting exercise. Franz runs Zoho Cliq as a first-class service tab beside the rest of your messengers and email, so your whole conversation surface lives in a single window.
Multiple Zoho Cliq accounts side by side
Because Cliq accounts each belong to their own Zoho organisation, switching between them in a browser usually means logging out and back in. Franz lets you add Zoho Cliq as a separate tab for each account and stay signed in to all of them at once. Every tab keeps its own session and its own unread badge, so a message in your company Cliq never blurs into one from a client's. Adding another account is just adding another tab, with no profile juggling and no repeated sign-ins.
Cliq notifications that reach you
A chat tool is only as useful as the alert that tells you to look. Franz raises native desktop notifications for Zoho Cliq, including the notification sound, so a direct message or a channel mention gets your attention the moment it lands. The unread count reflects what is genuinely aimed at you rather than every message in a busy channel, and it stays accurate across each account you connect. One look at the sidebar shows you exactly which Cliq is waiting on a reply.
Zoho Cliq on macOS, Windows, and Linux
Franz is a native desktop app for all three platforms, and Zoho Cliq behaves identically on each: matching notifications, a dock or taskbar badge, and quick switching between your tabs. Teams working across mixed operating systems all get the same Cliq experience with nothing to relearn per machine. You keep the full Cliq web client, channels, direct messages, and the Zoho integrations you rely on, now framed as one tab in the single window where your day already happens.
