Numbers and accounting data are often represented in the form of spreadsheets and tables. While this may seem detailed, it does not sit right within a presentation. Directly producing data to an audience is one thing, but how will you highlight an increase in trend or compare two different variables? Analysis is possible only when your numbers are expressed in the form of charts and graphs.

With Zoho Show's latest update, all your charts and graphs are effectively reproduced. They are now shipped in their exact format without being converted into images. The next time you import/export your .ppt/.pptx files into Zoho Show, you will find the graphs, pie charts and other illustrations of the same quality. This includes their colors, texture and borders.

Applications:

• Bar Charts - Compares data from different departments, giving a quick look at the highs and lows. Eg. While studying website traffic, expenditure by various teams, number of people in various ages groups for vaccination and more.

• Column Charts - These charts are oriented vertically. Eg. In periodic profit analysis, clustered forms of these charts can be used to compare the revenue generated in different years among different regions.

• Pie Charts - Shows the relative proportions(percentages) of collected data. Eg. To display percentage of budget  allotted  to different departments, percentage of how americans spend their vacation, breakdown of employees' nationality in the company.  

• Doughnut Charts - Donuts might have more than one data series. Every ring in the donut represents a specific data. Eg. To plot the sales of a product in different locations for consecutive years, quarterly sales, internet users by millions in different countries.

• Area Charts - Ideal for explaining the magnitude variation between different data. Eg. To depict the export and import records between two nations.

• Line Charts - Simple way to visualize by connecting individual numeric data. Eg. To display webpage views and company growth.

• Scatter Charts - Gives you an idea of trends and concentrations which will direct your focus. Eg. Reveal the height and weight of individuals based on gender.

• Bubble Charts - Varied size about the bubbles depict the data. Eg. Class attendance, country wise policies are displayed.

Note: Editing and creating new charts will be possible with the All new Zoho Show.
