What's New

Our PoP has been a hit with our users because it takes just 03 clicks to uncover data trends over time - but things got a lot more laborious when you want to compare:

• Sales numbers for 'Black Friday' season this year vs. the previous year, or
• The number of registrations for an upcoming webinar vs. a previous webinar from six months ago.

The problem? Two arbitrary time periods. Different start dates. Different end dates.

🥁🥁 Glad to share that this is a problem of the past! With our newly released Custom Period, you can easily select any date range for Period-over-Period comparison.

If you have any feedback for us, we're all ears.

What makes a good coding IDE? Among other things, it helps you spend as little time on troubleshooting as possible.

With Reporting Validation, you take the guesswork out of your modeling workflow. Holistics IDE now tells you exactly which reporting items are broken due to Modeling changes - before you roll out these changes and lets you patch up all those broken reporting items swiftly and en masse.

P/s: We’re always excited to ship new features, but we’re way more excited when we get to build things that you all have asked us for. Take this new feature for a spin, and keep the feedback coming.

We have released a new option in Single-select List filter settings, where you can allow your dashboard viewers to leave the value field empty.

With this feature active, an empty value can be used without the need to apply the filter. We believe this change offers more flexibility and command over your filtering choices

We value your feedback, so please don't hesitate to share your thoughts and suggestions with us.

Query Timeout helps you abort any query that exceeds your timeout limit and takes too much time and resources.

However, previously in Holistics, the Query Timeout setting was only available for Postgres, Redshift, and MySQL databases. Understanding the importance of resource optimization - especially in our current economic climate - we’ve gradually expanded our support for Query Timeout in most SQL databases - making it also available for BigQuery, Snowflake, Microsoft SQL Server, ClickHouse, and AWS Athena.

We totally get it - feels like time's standing still when you wait for a dashboard to load.

We hate the loading screen as much as you do so we’ve been rolling out a new API - Dashboard Preload API - to help you preload the cache of your most frequently used or operationally critical views of your Dashboards so that they can be loaded in an instant.

This means no waiting time - not even enough for a quick coffee break :) Learn more here.

Period Comparison was a hit with a lot of our users as it allows anyone to get insights into how data fluctuate over time. However, previously in Holistics, Period Comparison could only be set up by data analysts. Viewers don’t have the option to turn it on/off freely.

Recognizing the inconvenience and the growing demands for a more unified experience, we took a step forward: Period Comparison is now available at the dashboard level.

Dashboard explorers can now choose to apply the same comparison to numerous widgets within a dashboard and get a bird-eye view into how multiple metrics are changing over time.

Is there a way to customize what fields in the model and dataset are being shown to end users for self-serve exploration? Otherwise, my users are overwhelmed by the sheer amount of fields available.”

Yes, we heard you. Introducing dataset views, where you can curate exactly what the end users will see.

This feature is now immediately available to all 4.0 customers. Learn more here.

What makes a good coding IDE? Among other things, it should tell you where your code got wrong, and how to fix them.

Well, we just made our coding IDE a little better: When doing analytics development, Holistics IDE now tells you where your modeling code is broken, and what exactly is wrong with them.

If you have any feedback for us, we're all ears.

With an expanded range of data formats for both visualization settings and modeling, presenting dates the way you like - has never been easier.

What do you think? Feel free to share your feedback and suggestions, we'd love it!

Say goodbye to maintaining dashboards with only gut feeling - Because Holistics just released the BI equivalent of God-eye from Fast and Furious 07.

This feature gives admins a bird-eye view of dashboard usage & user activity, making it a lot easier to understand how your dashboards are being used.

Dashboard maintenance will be much less painful when you know precisely which dashboards are used by whom and how often.

In this official launch, we’ve released a plethora of upgrades to our Usage Monitoring - including Lists of dashboards with no view, Tracking of Private Dashboards, Performance improvements, and many more…
