Ask Zia - AI Powered Assistant



Ask Zia is the new search driven analytics assistant. Ask natural questions and get visualization answers. Zia is powered by machine learning and natural language processing.

Users can ask Zia questions such as, "What was my monthly sales for the last year across regions?" Zia converts such questions to complex SQL queries in the back end and gives answers in the form of visual reports, without users having to create them manually.


Zia can auto-blend data and understand questions that span across business apps - e.g., "Give me the revenue per employee" - where revenue comes from the accounting app, and employee count comes from the HR app. Zia comes up with multiple suggestions as possible answers, from which users can choose the relevant report.


Note: This feature will be incrementally enabled to users very soon.

Deep Analytics

Auto Blending of Data


Data is typically siloed in departmental business apps. If a CEO wants to see this month’s new sales, marketing spend, support tickets got, and invoices sent, she has to go to each of the different apps. Let’s say she also wants to know revenue (data in accounting or CRM app) per employee (data in HR app), it becomes even more arduous.


This is where Zoho Analytics can help with its intelligent auto-blending capability. Zoho Analytics makes it easier to analyze data from across apps by automatically identifying the connection between this apps and making it easy to create interactive reports and dashboards.

Forecasting


Forecasting enables you to easily predict your future data trends. It uses powerful forecasting algorithms which analyzes your past data deeply and comes up with the best forecast for the future. Learn more

Smart Data Alerts


Catch them before it's too late - smart data alerts notifies you of any anomaly or change in your key business metrics as it happens. Configure alerts in a snap, then sit back and relax. Learn More

Customizing Lookup Path

Custom lookup path selection for every report is now possible in instances where multiple lookups are used. Learn more

Report specific formulas

Create a report level formula using "Report Formula" feature to solve a wide range of aggregation challenges.

New Summary Functions for Pivot Table

New Advanced Summary Functions, % of Row in Group, % of Column in Group and Lookup Value, have been included in Pivot Table. Learn more
