    Self Service for analysts

    What is best?

    Lifting the limit of 2 measure from the line chart’s dual Y–axis makes it easier to process data where I can even use just the right side of the Y-axis or both if needed.

    Highlighting in my reports is made easy since the software can support any color code like RGB or custom colors, I can use whatever color I want.

    Features & Functionality7.2

    Line chart enhancements like the dual Y-axis can now cater to 3 or more measures and restrictions of just using both the left and right side of the axis has been lifted.

    Advanced Features7.2

    E-mail reports have snapshots which can shorten url links for clients, preserves the navigation and the things I have looked at which the recipients can go over right away when clicked on.
