New Connectors

Also, managing data has now become easier with the following features -- Audit history, Sync history, and Import roll back.

Audit History

Audit logs are crucial for maintaining security and troubleshooting issues. They provide a comprehensive record of user and system Actions, including details of the time when the action occurred and information about the administrator who performed the action.


Sync History

Sync history provides a detailed record of data synchronization activities, making it easy for the administrators to track the status of each data sync. The sync operations are color-coded for immediate recognition. Successful data syncs are indicated in green, and failed data syncs are marked in red with the reasons for failure along with the necessary action to be taken.

Import Rollback 

Automated imports can sometimes have errors and inconsistencies in data, and this can affect the data quality and the results. The import rollback capability reverts the current data import version to its previous version without affecting the existing data flow and analysis, ensuring data integrity.


Unified Metrics

Workspace will have data imported from varied sources, and each data source or table will have different metrics (aggregates) computed for analysis. A unified metrics consolidates all the metrics used across the workspace, helps in standardization, promotes usage, and avoids duplication.



Data Bucketing

Categorize or group data points easily with the Bucket Columns options in Zoho Analytics. (Until now, users had to write formulas to achieve this; now, it is available as an inbuilt option.) Bucketing reduces the number of distinct values (cardinality). It facilitates the transformation of numerical data into different categorical bins and makes data analysis easier.




2. Visual Analytics

Zoho Analytics supports 7+ new chart types (on top of 50+ existing ones) with extensive customization options to enhance the presentation and interpretation of the data.

  • Sankey charts are best suited for visualizing the flow of any process, as they clearly capture the movement of data from one point to another. It helps understand the movement of events through interconnected lines.
  • Racing charts are animated views that are best suited for visualizing the changes in the data over a period of time where the relative ranking of categories is important. They highlight and help comprehend the fluctuations and progression in the data. These types of charts grab the user's attention instantly, providing an immersive experience and helping craft a compelling story about the data.
  • Spark lines are compact charts that show the trends and variations in the data without taking up much space. They are widely used alongside pivot tables and help grasp trends and allow quick comparison of metrics across different fields. Zoho Analytics supports three variations that includes line chart, area chart, and bar chart.
  • Geo Map Layering, add multiple data layers to the geo map to visualize various dimensions of information. This feature includes interactive options for enhanced data exploration.
  • Sunburst charts represent hierarchical data through a series of rings, or concentric circles. Each ring corresponds to a level in the hierarchy. The central or innermost circle represents the root node, or the top-level category. Moving outwards, each subsequent ring represents a subcategory, where the outermost ring is the leaf node. The size of each arc in the ring is proportional to the value of the data. 
  • Conversion bar charts show the connected stages of a process and the gradual decrease in data as it moves through different stages of the process. Each stage is represented by a bar, with a step or stair case pattern indicating the shift in values (along with conversion percentage) at each stage.
  • Tree Map is a visualization composed of differently-sized rectangles that represent your data values. This is beneficial when you want to depict the part to whole relationship among various categories.
