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

So i've been playing with Zoho Projects Kanban view a bit more. It appears that task lists are being used as the Kanban columns, which makes sense from the implementation point of view but not the logical one.
