Map & Geo Analytics Enhancements
Map-Layering Enhancements

Learn more.
Map Chart – Tooltip Enhancements
Map chart tooltips have been refined by removing Latitude/Longitude values. Users now see cleaner, more meaningful data highlights.
Reporting & Visualization Enhancements
Drill Through Enhancements
Drill-through is now supported for both Public Views and Embedded Views, enabling viewers to seamlessly access related reports for deeper data exploration and enhanced analytical context.
Previously, drill-through functionality was limited to shared reports. With this enhancement, viewers can now open linked drill-through reports, provided those reports have also been made Public.
Learn more.
Tooltip / Info Icon in Widgets
Widgets now support tooltips and Info icons to display additional descriptions or context. This helps dashboard viewers understand metrics instantly.
Learn more.
Anomaly Detection for Dimensional Fields
Zoho Analytics now supports enhanced anomaly detection when a dimension field (category) is added to the Color shelf. Users can choose from multiple detection modes to better analyze deviations across different perspectives
- Overall data
- Each X-Series
- Each Color-Series Individually
- Each Combined Series of X and Color Columns

These enhancements offer greater flexibility and precision in uncovering unusual trends and outliers across segmented data visualizations.
Learn more.
Sorting of Values Across Group in Pivot Views
We have added a new option called Sort across Group which helps you apply clearer and more consistent sorting in Pivot Tables.
Earlier, sorting worked only inside each group. With Sort across Group, you can now sort the entire pivot table based on the selected column, regardless of how the groups are arranged.
Freeze Column Support in Pivot & Summary Views
We have added Freeze Column support in Pivot and Summary Views to help you work more comfortably with wide reports. This feature keeps selected columns fixed on the left side of the table while you scroll horizontally, allowing you to compare key columns with other metrics without losing context.
Report-Level Fiscal Year Option
Align individual reports with your organization's financial calendar by defining the Fiscal Year start month at the report level. This setting applies only to the selected report and appears when a date column is used, enabling accurate time-period analysis.
Learn more.
Dynamic Thresholds with Variables in User Filters
Aggregate formulas can now be used with variables inside thresholds. When paired with User Filters, threshold values are calculated dynamically based on each user’s filter selections ensuring every user sees context-relevant threshold boundaries instead of a fixed value.
Datatype-based Variable Suggestions for Default User Filters
When configuring default values in User Filters, only variables matching the filter’s datatype are now listed. This prevents configuration issues such as assigning a text variable to a numeric filter, and ensures accurate default value mapping.
Learn more.
AI & ML Enhancements
AutoML – 128GB Server Support
AutoML now runs on high-power 128GB servers in the US Data Center. This enables faster model training and support for significantly larger datasets.

- Contribution Analysis: Understand key factors impacting outcomes.

- Comparison Between Dimensions: Analyze performance and variance across different dimensions.
This customization ensures insights are focused, relevant, and tailored to the report’s context.
Learn more.
Diagnostic Insights Now Available for Multiple Time Series Analyses
Previously, diagnostic insights were available only for Recent Time Period Analysis. With this update, users can now access diagnostic insights across multiple time series analyses like, Anomalies/Outliers, Largest Incline/Decline, Period-over-Period Changes, and Start vs End Period Analysis revealing the “why” behind the data for more informed decisions.
