Delete Your Patch Manager Plus or Zoho Account

Looking to delete your Patch Manager Plus account or clean up your Zoho presence? This guide will help you choose the right path—whether you're removing just the product or your entire organization.


Step 1: Choose What to Delete

There are 3 types of deletions. Pick the one that fits your case:

  • Only Patch Manager Plus: Remove the product. Keep your Zoho account and other services.
  • Your Organization: Remove everything under your Zoho/ManageEngine org. Users become private Zoho users.
  • Your Zoho Account: Leave Zoho entirely. Permanently delete your identity across services.

Delete Your Zoho User Account

Leaving Zoho completely? Here’s how to permanently delete your individual account.

Can't Add a User? Email Conflicts

Email Already Exists in Another Organization

If a user's email was used in a different Zoho org before, admins may not be able to add them to your organization.

Fix Options:

Email Exists in a Different Data Center

Emails can’t be reused across regions (e.g., US vs EU data centers).

Fix Options:

  • Delete the account in the original data center using this guide
  • Sign up with a different email for the second data center
  • Migrate your org to a single DC using Zoho's DC migration guide
