Setting Advanced CRM Analytics | Zoho CRM Help

Setting Advanced CRM Analytics

The Advanced CRM Analytics (powered by Zoho Analytics) helps you to analyze CRM data and create insightful reports and dashboards for your business. This integration allows, the users to understand the data and make better decisions by making:
 
Combination charts: Combination of two or more type of charts. Users can combine bar, line, area, bubble and scattered in one chart. This chart is useful when users have a mixed type of data to represent.

Heat maps: Displays data values as colors inside a matrix. This is a two-dimensional grid chart, where each color represents the data. Users can also choose to derive the size and color intensity of each cell based on the data. This is useful to categorize and visualize data based on factors, such as volume of occurrence, intensity, performance scale (ex: bad to good) and others.

Bubble charts: Useful if users want to visualize data highlighting the magnitude or weight of a data point with sizing. They can use a bubble chart wherever a Scatter plot is used, with scattered points being replaced by bubbles. The size of the bubble will be determined by the data column dropped in the new Size shelf of the Chart designer.

Scatter plots: Used to plot and compare numeric values, such as scientific, statistical, and engineering data. It is generally used for comparison between two numerical axes with uneven intervals and ranges.

Geo map charts: A Geo Map chart is a map of a world, continent, country, state, or a city, with the data values assigned to specific regions through chart visualizations. Geo map charts analyze geo spatial data through the use of interactive visualization.

Web or Radar charts: Help in studying the comparison between different data series. It compares the values of several data series represented with data markers in proportion with a center point.

Trend analysis: Used to identify the trend present in the data. Users can predict the trend line for data in time or number series. Trend lines can be derived based on various mathematical models, such as Linear, Logarithmic, Exponential, Power, Polynomial and Auto.
