Expanded Data Preparation and Modeling Capabilities in Zoho Analytics

Since launch, the integration of Zoho DataPrep within Zoho Analytics, has significantly enhanced the ETL (Extract-Transform-Load) capabilities. This integration allows users to connect, clean, transform, and enrich their data effortlessly—all from within Zoho Analytics.
Building on this, the release of Zoho Analytics 6.0 in September 2024 introduced even more advanced data modeling and preparation capabilities by fully integrating the latest enhancements of Zoho DataPrep within Zoho Analytics.

Key Features of Zoho DataPrep

  • Intelligent suggestions that automatically recommend the best fixes for common data problems.
  • Comprehensive transformation library including deduplication, format standardization, empty cell handling, and pattern matching.
