What's New - January 2026

What's New - January 2026

Hello Users!

We are starting the year with a strong lineup of updates, marking the beginning of many improvements planned to enhance your analytics experience. Explore the latest improvements built to boost performance, simplify analysis, and help you extract more value from your data.


Archive Data

No more querying all records while generating reports! Analyze data faster and optimize workspace performance with Archive Data. Move older or less-frequently used records out of active tables, and store them securely.


Key Benefits

  • Pay only for what you analyze: Active data is reserved for analysis, while historical data is retained without impacting usage limits.
  • Improved Querying and Faster Analysis: By limiting queries to relevant data, report generation and dashboard loading times are significantly reduced, resulting in faster insights and a more responsive analytics experience.
  • Optimized Storage Usage: Archiving older data helps control table size, preventing unnecessary growth, and better management of row limits.

Organize Views with Tags

Group related views, and manage reports and dashboards effortlessly. Use tags to organize views by teams, departments, projects, or specific use cases, making it easy for users to navigate large workspaces.

Quickly filter and find the right reports and dashboards, reduce clutter, and ensure teams always have access to the views that matter most to them.

Learn more.

Global Custom Sort

Custom sort was limited to individual reports previously. With recent enhancements, you can now define the sort order for text data types at the workspace level.


This improvement helps you maintain a consistent sorting across all reports, reduces repetitive setup, and saves time. It also ensures a standardized view of your data throughout the workspace.

Learn more.

Timeframe Selection for Overview Charts

Overview charts now offer flexible timeframe selection, allowing you to focus on relevant periods for deeper trend analysis.

By narrowing the time range, you can better compare performance, identify patterns, and gain clearer insights without distraction from older data.

Learn more.

Customize Zia Insights placement in Dashboards

Choose where and how the insights are displayed, so that they complement your analysis without disrupting your dashboard layout. This gives you greater flexibility to present insights in the way that best suits your audience and reporting style.


  • Overlay: Displays insights in a floating panel that opens on demand, allowing users to review insights without leaving or altering the report view.
  • Within Report: Embeds insights directly within the report, enabling users to view data and insights together in a single, continuous view.
  • Replace Report: Displays insights as the primary view by replacing the report entirely, offering an insight-first experience focused on conclusions, rather than raw data.

Learn more.

Customize Image Size in Dashboards

Dashboards now support image size settings that let you control how images are displayed.

Choose from options like Original, Fit to width, Contain, or Stretch to ensure images align well with your dashboard layout, and thus improve visual clarity.

Learn more.

Tabular View Enhancements

  • With this enhancement, all tables linked via lookup columns are now available in the Filter Criteria tab. This makes it easier to share views with users using associated filters, ensuring the specified criteria are automatically applied to the shared report.
  • You can now customize lookup columns and the join paths used within Tabular View. This enhancement gives you control over how related tables are connected, helps avoid incorrect or ambiguous joins, and ensures more accurate and reliable data representation in your tabular reports.

New Business App Connectors

We have now introduced integration with two new business connectors Zoho FSM and Magento.

Zoho FSM

Connect your Zoho FSM Data with Zoho Analytics to analyze your field service operations in depth. Identify bottlenecks, optimize resource allocation with interactive reports and dashboards. Analyze revenue, service costs, and customer trends to improve profitability and service quality.

Learn more.

Adobe Commerce (Magento)

Analyze sales, orders, customers, and product performance with ready-made reports and dashboards. Track key metrics like revenue trends, average order value, and top-selling products. Gain insights into customer behavior and regional sales patterns. Make faster, data-driven decisions to optimize store performance and growth.

Learn more.

These updates bring enhanced functionality and improved workflows. Explore them in your Zoho Analytics workspace now!
