New Chart Type - Tree Map         

We're thrilled to announce that Zoho Analytics now supports Tree Map visualization. Tree Map helps you to explore your data hierarchically with ease and uncover trends with precision.


Chart Styling Enhancements

Elevate your data visualization with these exciting enhancements that align with current global design trends.  Enjoy a brand-new default color palette, captivating area chart gradient effects, stylized markers for scatter, line, area, and web charts, dotted gridlines, and a clutter-free view with the removal of the Y-axis line.




Change in default report for single metric column

Previously, when you generate a chart for a single aggregate or numeric column dropped in X or Y axis, the chart was a pie or bar chart with aggregate range/count. Now, it is changed to a single bar chart.
